“Just packing my suitcase while wearing the Vision Pro & battery pack…ya know…just to enhance that whole experience.…and, in case someone calls I don’t want to just answer with my iPhone!”
Marketing team is really stretching it on that use-case scenario 😬 🤣

My card and my Apple balance were both charged today... waiting... waiting... waiting...
You’ve never purchased the first gen of anything at all because your thought process is first gen buyers are guinea pigs? That’s a real sad way to look at humanity. Hope you feel better.
They could use the tag line "The device for when you want to shut out the real world and just be alone"
What kind of a sociopath do you have to be to speak to your kids with one of these on your face? Not ok.
Its perfect for watching content by yourself, and on the go. Take on a flight etc combined with airpods something like this bit a cheaper version for content consumption only would be a huge seller for alot of consumers.
This device has been made for much more than consumption… and as a consequence the cost is extremely high.
I also refuse to buy the first iteration of any Apple hardware, going back to the original flavored iMacs. Experience has proven this the correct course of action, for many reasons. The one exception: the original iPod was my favorite Christmas gift from my Dad and Mom. But I didn’t buy that.
Actually, the commercial shows the product as it is today. And people do Oculus. And they fall down and crack their heads open. For a 1st Gen, I would bet this will go down as one of the best 1st Gens in electronics history. We'll see.
Riding Moore's Law starts now...
But this is for when I do not want to sit with your family.
Battery pack is still quite awkward. Notice none of the ads have shapely women using Vision Pro.
Where would the battery pack go for women wearing a dress, skirt, or yoga pants? It's fine for guys and big women wearing cargo pants.

They have, but they still have to inform the general public, that it exists in generate hype and interest.
Any “regular” consumer who sees this commercial is going to think “oh cool, I want one!” And then they see the price.
But five years from now when a lot of the rough edges have been sanded down, and the price has been shrunk to something a little more easy to stomach, they’ll have five years of knowing what the product is, and five years worth of apps developed for it.
Developers are going to be interested no matter what, it’s a new platform from Apple.
Thats a bit harsh… ive bought quite a few first gen Apple products that did exactly what i needed.
I dont understand your hostility. I was a Guinea pig for some of those devices too. Theres nothing wrong with being a guinea pig 😂

Apple, can we get some new content? lol. It’s release week. No more hiding it now.
Id love to watch AvP on AVP.
The aliens would be super scary… and that Pred Alien…. 😱😱

OMG. Great content. Loved seeing it. And it connected so well to Supertramp's Dreamer.
And so sad to continue to see all AVP threads poisoned, and made useless, by the haters.
You guys really need almost nothing to jump to wild conclusions.
I‘d rather they spend the million+ dollars a commercial with all new footage would‘ve cost to „record“ for something more sensible.
It’s a 60-second spot, likely for tv. I’m sure the majority of folks watching football didn’t watch the keynote.
Have you tried it on?? If not, this post is g*****e
