Jason Snell's Eyes (and head) on with the Apple Vision Pro

Jason Snell got to try out the Apple Vision Pro at the WWDC 2023 event and was mostly impressed by it. He stated that The device the device is like a mega iPhone that you wear on your face, but wrapped in comfortable materials. The hardware is impressive, and the device automatically adjusted to the width of his eyes. The Vision Pro has no pointer, and instead, its eye tracking knows exactly where you're looking, and your gaze is the pointer. The gestures are intuitive, and each app window on the Vision Pro has a small horizontal line at the bottom, just like what you'll find at the bottom of an iPhone screen. The Vision Pro defaults to displaying content layered on the real world around you, but you can turn the Digital Crown clockwise to immerse yourself in an alternate reality. Jason was impressed with the high-quality dual 4K displays, and 3-D photos and videos looked amazing. He experienced a FaceTime call with another Vision Pro user, and the audio portion of the conversation was very well handled. However, Jason was not sold on the Digital Personae as a concept and had trouble finding a comfortable fit for the device. Overall, he was very impressed with the hardware and software, but the unanswered question is, to what end? Source: SixColors
