The QUEST 3 had to re-make their crappy AVATAR into a photo realistic version after people were mocking them when the Vision Pro showed their realistic Avatar feature 🤣
Simple, train your neck 🙂
My greatest happiness is the gains I get consistently from my venture despite the business cycle. The U.S NFP is a key factor and knowing how to use it is very rewarding.
LMAO. They blamed their device overheating due to instagram? Sounds like bs 😂
'You're wearing it wrong.' Steve Jobs' ghost.
The question isn't 'Will the Vision Pro be better than the Quest 3?' – the question is 'Will it be SEVEN TIMES better?' because it's seven times as expensive. And before people do the 'Apple will make a cheaper model' thing, that rarely happens unless it has a lot of features missing (iPhone SE anyone?)
And keep in mind, foldable phones are STILL insanely expensive, so it's not a given that a new tech will drop to a lower price. Microsoft HoloLens anyone?
Good thing I have no neck.
Bridget has got in for Apple! Go girl go!
lack the neck spec. need to go to the gym first
I mean.. it's Apple. Version 2 is probably just version 1 but with an extra camera.
I didn’t think I’d care about mixed reality or AR but using the quest 3 has made me a full believer that the vision is going to be amazing and will definitely go mainstream in future iterations. The quest 3 pass through isn’t as good as the hype led me to expect but it’s an amazing leap forward and an increase in clarity and more applications is all it needs.
Watching tv/movies with pass through has sold me on the media applications of AR tech. Being able to use your phone, see your drinks/snacks, and have the huge curved virtual screen makes me never want to go back to virtual theaters.
The solution is right there on apple add clip already, that hair (Afro hair) will solve this weight and neck strain issue. With that kind of hair, will act as a counterweight for the vision pro 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤ my haircut is thinning already (almost going bald, so maybe I should skip buying vision pro…..or maybe… maybe, i should consider getting some heavy wig? Lol peace y’all 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Girl, you are annoying…
Glass and metal were the lightest materials they could find? 😀
Well OF COURSE it's going to be heavy on your face and add to neck and head pain. It's big, it's going to be heavy and has no counterbalance on the back. When no top strap exists, a back soft-strap is going to have to be super tight to hold it in place and your cheeks and nose are going to need to support the weight as well. It's a poor design as shown in the reveal.
A guaranteed success in the market of YouTube Reviewer community 😂
It doesn't matter what Apple comes up with… unless they start buying game studios, then create game controllers, then all the Vision Pro will ever be is an MR headset. Meta focuses on VR games first, MR second. Without games, it's not going to attract gamers. They make up the bulk of the customer base.
Was that idiot wearing mask? Indoors? Wtaf.
Does Buzz Out Loud still exist?
4:24 I Don't like the PRICE😅
DOA if you ask me. Watch Apple say to work out your neck more and stop complaining. 😂
Just like their Air pod Max being super heavy, no thx. I'd rather have my lightweight Sony.
No idea how Apple could be so stupid by making a wearable headset be so heavy.
🤣🤣🤣
Remember Samsungs VR headset which was basically a plastic holder and lens to put a big smartphone inside. All that weight on the front of face and no reporter back then complained about neck pain.
Most VR headsets are like that. It’s not something that is new. Apple products get all the flack because it’s easy to get reactions to rumors. Not saying that Apple Vision Pro will be good. I think VR will forever be niche product no mater how hard Zuckie, Microsoft, or Apple tries.
I don think Apple Vision Pro and Quest 3 are competing products. Quest 3 is a toy for kids and kids at heart. Apple Vision Pro is for the Apple’s deep pocketed “pro” consumer market. Apples Vision Pro will draw more people to Apple physical stores than ever before to experience guided demos of the product. This is the real purpose of the Vision Pro. To get more people to physical Apple Stores and hopefully buy something.
why is the presenter so insufferable
She could review water and I'd still tune in 😂😅😊
I may get it by 2028 refurbish for more than half of the price; even there I would still paying over price for it!
Thank you from Truckee California
im a guy who doesnt care about looks but jeez fix your hair woman
I mean if you're putting 3.5k worth of hardware on your head, you better bet that it hurts… That's how you know you're getting your money's worth :v
Just got my Q3, and already own Q2. Who cares about 🍎’s Pro!
who cares about vision pro, it will have no real games, it doesn't have controllers..
Quest 3 is great. My brother got his already and I had the chance to try it. It is so much more comfortable than the earlier Quests. It feels a lot lighter than it is because the weight is not so far out in front of your face.
I don’t feel sorry for all the beta testers who bought the 1st generation Apple vision pro
Apple just sounds pretentious with the Vision Pro. It's overpriced for what it is (based on Apple's own advertised features and specs), and I don't want it to normalize ridiculous pricing for VR/AR headsets. You could buy a gaming PC and full Valve Index setup for the same price and do your "computing" with and without a headset. No thanks.
Still my neck hurts
@0:56 Apple blames instagram but we will revise our iOS because it’s instagram’s fault.
Great watch. Thanks Bridget.
Rather have a rubber neck
What can Apple bring to warrant such a high price over a far less expensive HMD?
In my opinion, the Vision Pro presentation will be held again and there will be changes in 2024
Why is everyone so deadset on putting computers on our heads? There are other parts of the human body that are better equipped to carry the computational and battery part. Put the display on the face. Everything else can attach to something else (i.e., arms, chest…etc.)
Just ship it with a neck brace 😁
