The front of the device features an OLED screen that can display your eyes, making you more connected to the people in the real world. Its springy side bands and ribbed rear headband look like suitably high-end. And, simply put, it has the wow factor you\u2019d expect from a prestige Apple product.<\/p>\n<p>Still, there\u2019s plenty of cause for concern. The required battery pack is a bit un-Apple, since you\u2019ll have to stuff it into your pocket or find somewhere to store it. And we\u2019ve yet to see someone wearing this headset in the real world. Apple\u2019s event staff stressed that we couldn\u2019t touch the Vision Pro or lean too close. And of course, we won\u2019t see if Apple\u2019s spatial computing vision lives up to its slick promotional videos until we can actually wear this thing.<\/p>\n<p>At the very least, though, the Vision Pro makes me hopeful about the future of spatial computing. Recent headsets, like Sony\u2019s PlayStation VR2 and the Meta Quest Pro, have made the limits of virtual reality very clear. They\u2019re a bit too isolated from the real world, and they\u2019re mainly focused on games. The Vision Pro, on the other hand, is a glimpse at a world beyond screens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Vision Pro is Apple\u2019s bold entry into the world of spatial computing, and it seems like the company has learned a lot from the VR and AR headsets before it.
