Nothing presented here or at the WWDC keynote makes me eager to pick this device up. The 180k+ units sold seem more tied to its status as a symbol rather than a compelling innovation. The only killer feature is the 4k per eye resolution.<p>What I've seen here is basically apps in a box at the same distance and size of roughly a 100" TV. What I really wanted to see out of the headset which I don't see is:<p>1. "pass through" mode of a physical keyboard and mouse into the virtual world<p>2. apps leveraging more use of the real estate provided by 180 degree+ FOV<p>3. apps using depth perception<p>For instance, a showcase of Final Cut Pro featuring the timeline prominently in focus "closer" to the user, the monitor showing the preview at far distance, in mid-range depth the scopes for color grading and to the immediate peripheries the media library and inspector.<p>The eye movement for UI focus and the pinch-to-interact coordination don't feel very intuitive to me. And based on what The Verge is reporting it just looks unnatural. [1]<p>What sold me on the Quest 3 was AR painting with Gravity Sketch. [2] Using the controllers it felt natural. There are hints that Gravity Sketch might make its way to Vision Pro. [3] However, I'm skeptical about how intuitive and precise it could be without handheld controllers like the ones on the Quest 3. It seems like Apple might be following a pattern similar to what they did with the stylus – initially dismissing its necessity, only to backtrack later on.<p>Nonetheless excited to test it out firsthand at an Apple Store.<p>[1] <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/8/23753618/apple-vision-pro-virtual-keyboard-controls-wwdc-2023" rel="nofollow">https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/8/23753618/apple-vision-pro-...</a><p>[2] <a href="https://www.meta.com/experiences/1587090851394426/" rel="nofollow">https://www.meta.com/experiences/1587090851394426/</a><p>[3] <a href="https://mixed-news.com/en/gravity-sketch-update-apple-vision-pro-version/" rel="nofollow">https://mixed-news.com/en/gravity-sketch-update-apple-vision...</a>
