The Apple Vision Pro is supposed to be the start of a new spatial computing revolution. After several days of testing, it’s clear that it’s the best headset ever made — which is the problem.

    One of the weirdest things about it that I’m sure Apple put a whole lot of time, effort, and money into is the EyeSight feature (the see-through eyes), and yet every image or video I’ve seen of it so far looks horrible in real life. I get the idea behind it, but that they prioritized that over actual content just seems assbackwards, there still doesn’t seem like there’s a whole lot to do in this thing. It’s a feature that really should’ve been left on the cutting room floor in an effort to bring the cost down. And they’re trying to pitch this as AR (which it’s not, or “spatial computing”) when really this thing would probably benefit more if they pitched/leaned into it being a VR device.
