No matter if you feel the price tag is too high, or feel it’s a gimmick that won’t appeal to many, the Vision Pro will usher in a new era of apps and products.
To me, this is similar to when the iPhone was getting ready to be released. Many said it was expensive, had no keyboard, was too big and wide to be comfortably held, and would never sell. That all started to change once people got their hands on the device.
I feel that the Vision Pro will have the same effect, but this is one device you’ll truly need to test out and experience. Based on those that have been fortunate enough to actually use it, it’s not a gimmick.
I know it’s pie in the sky but in my most optimistic dreams I can see building virtual offices and having the benefits of in person interaction with coworkers while still having the benefits of a work from home situation (commute, bathrooms, comfort, etc…).
Some companies, like Nabu Casa, are already using Quest headsets in this way to conduct their meetings since they’re an entirely remote company.
I already have zoom/teams. I don’t know what a virtual office gets me other than more monitoring tools for my employer. I’m already fully remote. Besides. I do not want to wear a headset for 8-10 hours. I’d go insane.
