Apple Vision Pro Owners: Keep or Return. And why?

[Amazing Iceman]

Happy wife, happy life …. 😉

Actually, happy wife, happy wife…

Keeping.
I’m still getting used to wearing the AVP, but I’ve discovered a few applications that keep me coming back to it. These are:

• Immersive experiences
• Gazing at panoramas in Photos
• Watching F1 races with a 3D race track (Vroom)
• Examining 3-D objects I’ve designed in Fusion imported as a .usdz file on the AVP
• Flying over the Google Earth world using FLY
• Using Voyager to watch planes takeoff and land at the local airport

Many other use cases are better served by my iPad, iPhone or my Mac, so it’s not a replacement for those, but it is a wonderful addition.

Exactly - it is a new world to be discovered.

If I may add an additional App:
Get "Sky Guide" and play with the planets in the planetarium.

I decided to keep it because I was thoroughly sold on the concept of spatial computing.

Today I took delivery of the Annapro headband which completely transforms the comfort. I then took the light seal off… and... absolute game changer. The addition of a good field of view makes spatial computing truly amazing.

Anybody on the fence, get one ordered ASAP and try it, you won’t regret it.

How long did it take for your annapro to arrive to the UK it’s been over a week so far here

I think I ordered it on Tuesday and got it Saturday. The lead time suggested it would be longer though.

FWIW - it just arrived, I didn’t get a notification it was out. Hope you get it soon!

Are you struggling with comfort?

I returned mine from launch, but just picked one up for $1500 on Offerup. At this price, I absolutely love it.

So, how do you like it? (Besides loving the amazing low price of it).
Did you install Beta 6 yet?

 

[RazorWriter]

I'm seeing these for $800-900 barely used now. At that price I'd bite.

Where? The cheapest completed ebay listing I could find was $2475.

Actually I found one, but act cautiously: https://offerup.co/rWtUMTo76Lb

One more: https://offerup.co/BmJmxRv76Lb

And yet one more: https://offerup.co/LX5neVA76Lb

At least I’ll make 3 new users happy. Keep searching for more, my lunch break is over.

I wonder how many of these are real I’ve been stolen if that’s possible

Stolen would be locked out. You'll need to test it very well. Or ask the seller to provide you the serial number so you could check with Apple.
Another possibility is that some could be fake, Chinese knock offs.

I know, doesn't mean they sell it without telling them. If it is noticeable China fakes well uck

So many things wrong with the site that 91% of 1465 reviews are 1 star (out of 5).

Regarding these offerup offers:
Who on earth would sell a device, initially worth 3500$, a couple of month after launch for 800$ indluding original warranty? On Ebay it could be worth 2000 or even more.

What could be wrong with such an offer....
I have no sympathy for anyone who falls for something like this.

No one, trade in places like CEX would give you a better trade in price:

CeX (UK): - Buy, Sell, Donate

CeX product details for the Apple Vision Pro (A2117) 512GB, Light Seal 36W, Small Bands, A

These are just spammy/scam links.

That’s why I said: “act cautiously”.
OfferUp started okay, but the users have turned it into junk.
Yes, there are lots of scams and other misleading posts.
Ugh!

 

[JapanApple]

What is likely most of these are fake or fake listings.

Well, I did find the listings as one poster claimed, but that doesn’t seem mean I believe in them.

Yes you’ll definitely bite the bait and the hook.

I’m actually loving it. For the price, I don’t feel like I need to use it to keep it. When I do use it, it’s incredible. Yeah I’m on the latest beta.

Guys, does it really worth it? I am thinking between Apples Vision or a drone

Guys, does it really worth it? I am thinking between Apples Vision or a drone

That is not even remotely comparable products. Hey guys, I’m thinking about either an Apple Vision Pro or 1000 cheeseburgers at McDonald’s.

When you realize you need to get a license and a background check to operate a drone and that you will have to comply with many rules and regulations. And that it will not fly near a main highway, or that your neighbors can sue you for looking towards their homes, you may change your mind. Unless you plan to go out of the city to operate it, it may not be fun.
And eventually the fun runs out.
