Why Apple’s Vision Pro is the Next iPhone (Analysis)

The day the technology is small enough to be a true wearable it will be truly groundbreaking

I rather look at this as a leap forward in the industry than a product everyone should immediately have, but it definitely makes me optimistic about the future

Think of the difference and progress from the original iPhone to the iPhone X. This looks outrageously good for a first gen product, it already makes me think wtf will be possible by the time the Vision Pro X is released.

I tend to agree with the isolation concern but also see this as a positive for certain segments of an aging population. In another 10-15 years I expect my mobility to decline from aging (I’m 75) so having access to a device like this in my final abode will actually provide me with an array of virtual experiences to keep my mind active. I enjoy travelling but during the two years of being pretty much grounded during COVID I discovered YouTube walks through many cities and riding buses through others. This gave me some replacement for my wanderlust until I could get back onto a plane. This device will ensure I will be able to continue experiencing travel even when I’m confined to a (god forbid) a nursing home! And by the time I’ll need such a device (not an early adopter) these will have come down in price and bulkiness…and I’ll have collected enough in dividends from my Apple stock to pay for it and the content. As I won’t need a TV screen to watch movies, that will be a savings too. Pretty sure we boomers are a large enough potential market in the future, and we do have the money to pay for it.

The main problem with VR/AR is not the motion sickness, but the fact that they all feel like you have a brick strapped to your face

When I saw MKBHD genuinely geeking out about this thing, I knew it's impressive. He rarely does that but in the review video, I knew that this thing is going to be the future.

Can’t wait to be fully immersed in pop up adverts

Digital loneliness .. I will never forget seeing four young teenagers sitting at a small square table outside on the most beautiful early summer day ever, but all looking at their phones oblivious to their own friends existence.

One year later? You missed by a mile.
