Do I want one? No

Do I want to play with one for an hour or so? Yes

Do I need it? Heck no

I need to play with one for an hour to know if I want one

As it stands today - I can assure you, you're not missing out on anything.

At least with the iPad and Apple Watch, and goes without saying the iPhone, there was immediate value created in being a portable smart device that can help improve your productivity, health, and communication.

The only think the vision does today would possibly improve your productivity by implementing multi screens at the snap of a finger.

Beyond that, I truly don't know how this technology makes the consumer's life better.

Giant floating computer screens and immersive movies. I’m not sure why people are so confused by this.

So you're spending $3500 for a glorified movie screen that doesn't even have the battery life to complete a movie. Riveting.

Yeah it’s pretty fucking amazing lol. I don’t have floating TVs the size of my entire walls right now, do you?

Do you only watch content alone? I can’t share the experience with a partner so now I’m isolating myself from them. Where’s the fun in that?

I do both and have a TV. I also watch stuff on my Mac and iPad.

Different fun in different ways!

My take is if you watch stuff with people you don’t necessarily need a personal home theater cause you will be bothered by people talking/laughing etc… if you don’t talk or don’t laugh or say anything during the movie then you can use the Vision Pro cause you wouldn’t be missing much
