Early adopter shares pros and cons of Apple's Vision Pro headset after first week of use
-
Ishaqi was the first person in NYC to buy the Apple Vision Pro headset. He's an "Apple fan" who met Tim Cook and thinks the headset has potential, but admits there are some first-gen quirks.
-
Main pros Amazing visuals, like having a personal theater. Useful medical apps showing promise. Hand tracking works well.
-
Main cons Battery life limited to 3-4 hours. Glare in dark scenes of movies. Heavier than expected and can cause neck strain. Limited apps so far.
-
Ishaqi uses the Vision Pro about 1 hour a day on average to watch videos, less than he expected. Says it was worth it for him but not sure average consumers need it yet.
-
Ishaqi won't return his Vision Pro but thinks it needs to get lighter, cheaper, better battery life and more apps before most consumers buy in. He expects adoption to grow over time.
