I had the exact same experience. During halftime of the Chiefs-Ravens, I showed my guests the guided tour video, and they were all imagining how they could use this device. Asking questions of what it would be like on an airplane. But they were all in awe.
I can afford several, but I’m not getting one just yet. Not because of hate. I think it’s the most amazing thing Apple has done. I can’t wait for what the future brings with this if Apple does what it does best pushing the technology forward. I hope they don’t drop this and keep it going. Cant wait to see this 10 years from now. Then I’ll get it!
I was with you until the second sentence.
Why the heck did the lady wear it while packing her suitcase?
Apple today promoted the Vision Pro in a new video ad shared on its YouTube channel, ahead of the headset launching in the U.S. this Friday, February 2.
The ad demonstrates wearing the Vision Pro and navigating the visionOS operating system.
"Apple Vision Pro is here," the video description says. "Now, digital content blends seamlessly with your physical space. You can do the things you love in ways never before possible."
As noted by Dylan McDonald, this ad is a shorter and slightly modified version of a video that Apple originally showed at the end of its WWDC keynote last June, shortly after introducing the Vision Pro. It aired during today's NFL playoff games.

Where was the fun in the video? Maybe I blinked and missed it.
Why does anyone wear headphones while doing anything?
The fun isn't in the video. The fun is relaxing in your own life. And if you have no vision for this product, then simply move on. I have a vision for this product. I'm comfortable in my own decisions.
Someting about "missing the forest for the trees" comes to mind.
It is though. Obscuring your face (especially your eyes) the way this does is actually a pretty big deal for humans. It's the same reason it can be hard to read someone who's wearing dark sunglasses, or why people who don't meet your gaze in a conversation seem awkward or untrustworthy. This is a fundamental part of human interaction and communication that we've cultivated over thousands or millions of years.
I have plenty of fun in my own life, but thanks for the faux concern. Last I checked, discussing Apple and its products was the whole point of the this forum, but if you don't want to discuss them then I guess there are lots of other websites out there for you. I don't really know how else to help you here?
Only if it sells. So far all we’ve seen is that the built in fanbase jumped on board - as expected. It remains to be seen if anyone else is interested.
Why? Who cares what it looks like? It’s better looking than all its competitors. Sunglasses wouldn’t be very immersive … or have a computer inside them…
There are a few people on here who believe discussing products equals endless fawning praise. Hit the ignore button. They are beyond boring.
Why would developers want to
This version might not sell but I am sure Samsung and Google R&D is planning to release something in the next 1-2 years. Might not be as good as Apple but they will certainly have a single digit % marketshare. Oculus, PSVR, Vive didn't get popular because they only focus on gaming. AVP is focusing on everyday use. Big difference imo. AVP2 for $2000 will be a killer. iPhones sell for $1600 so $2k for a AVP Lite would sell like hotcakes once the ecosystem is there and public perception has changed.
I’m single and I can’t wait to watch movies on it! And how many couples have all the same interests? This would be the perfect device to watch movies on after one’s significant other goes to bed and you’ll get the full theater experience and disturb no one
Most people’s phone are subsidized by carrier. AVP is not.
HomePod launched, didn’t sell well, had its price dropped, still didn’t sell well, and was discontinued before being brought back with a revised version.
