We've all grown accustomed to anticipating great things from 苹果 , and the bar has only risen higher and higher over the years. People have been obsessed with #AI, #VR, #AR, and #XR since the beginning of the decade. And as new technology such as VR glasses are developed, we all assumed that Apple would eventually enter the augmented reality/virtual reality domain, and it's finally here.?
The "Vision Pro"???, a combination of AR (augmented reality) and VR (virtual reality), is the first Apple device that you look through rather than at (as with previous VR headsets) and is completely integrated into the user's current Apple ecosystem, was introduced in the final segment of Apple's #wwdc23 presentation, and Apple went into considerable depth, giving insights into the new device's myriad probable uses. And after listening to what I can guarantee you that it is not the same as its rivals. Most virtual reality headsets are large and hefty, so it's evident that Apple prioritized a thin structure and lightweight with this headset. This headset is also a high-end entry in the VR headset market, with a 4K resolution powered by Apple's strong M2 chip and an innovative R1 chip created just for the Vision Pro, guaranteeing that visuals are continuously delivered to the display.?
What's more, #cyberpunk -ish is that the headset is designed to be used around the house or office as you go about your daily activities, acting as a base from which you can build your own personalized augmented reality universe, with your apps and contents being a part of that world for you to interact with and access, The entire Apple ecosystem form the mice to the Macs all can be accessed and utilized all on in front of you!, Just imaging sitting on your couch see a 100+ inch display doing your work and chilling. From chilling I remember one more thing.?
?I know what you're thinking: it just keeps going, doesn't it?
????Well I'm as astounded as you are

Apple also disclosed that the Vision Pro will use #3d motion on videos and spatial audio to make interaction with memories and experiences on the Vision Pro more immersive than ever before, and can also capture videos and photos as well Vision Pro additionally support Apple Arcade games and PlayStation DualSense controllers, allowing it to be used for both work and pleasure.?So, does Apple gradually take over the #metaverse and does Meta need to be concerned? That's a topic for another time.
Apple has big hopes for the Vision Pro, as the event was jam-packed with people doing everything with the device for everything! I mean everything from getting drinks from the fridge to playing with their kids and as per my speculations Apple wants the Vision Pro to be as important as the #iphone , or else it will be the future of the iPhone, Ok that last line is a bit of a stretch but who knows right? But there is one aspect that bothers me: the price. We all know how Apple is known for charging a premium for whatever they offer, but the Vision Pro's costs are going to be an important roadblock to that ambition. I understand that this is the very first generation Apple headset and that supplying such a kind of gear is prohibitively costly, but charging $3,499 is absurd?? and will merely render it an expensive niche product rather than a mainstream solution.?
Well, that's my thought, what do you think? let me know??
