Apple's New VR Headset Offers Stunning Yet Concerning Immersive Experiences
• Watched immersive Apple original content on the new Vision Pro headset, including a preview of Avatar 2, a performance by Alicia Keys, and nature footage that felt jaw-dropping and surreal.
• Device has ultra-hi-def, panoramic viewing with depth, delivering a powerful sensory experience that made palms sweat.
• Sees huge potential for sports viewing as well as therapeutic applications like helping PTSD.
• Had concerns about talent (and viewers) needing to get comfortable appearing in such sharp focus, and comparisons made to Wall-E's immobile hoverchair people.
• After removing the device, the real world felt disappointing in comparison. Great news for Apple, perhaps not society.
