Awesome Tips Apple’s iPhone Spatial Video on Vision Pro Wowed Me: Here’s What to Know
It’s in public beta now, but you need an iPhone 15 Pro to use it. And you won’t get to see it in 3D until you get a Vision Pro… but I got an early look at it.

Hope we get 360° 3D video one day 😮
its a gimmick, its using wide lens and regular lens and stiches them both together, you watch the video on your phone its regular lens, and the gimmick here is you get to turn and see the wider lens in the video; its 100% a nintendo 3ds just in vr
its not 180 degree video?
Please find some relaxing background music. I detracts from your otherwise great content and delivery. Smooth jazz or classical . You can do it.
If i know anything about stereo 3d, i think everything recorded this way will look bigger than reality, because the ipd on this 2 lenses are too small
The real question though, can you watch 2D videos on the Vision Pro? Some people can’t see 3D like myself
Unless its a 'Ready Player One' headset…sitting looking at spatial photos and videos will seem way past ultra-nerd. At some point in your life…we will be forced to face 'reality'…and hold verbal conversations 😂
Any screendoor effect or blur?
The latest release of IOS Beta 17.2 shows us that Apple's new "Spatial Video" is best described as Parallax-o-Vision.
I sing the body electric but all I am shown is a Gimmick.
The Vision Pro should record in 3d, and you should be able to walk around the subject or landscape as if you are there.
Make use of the 3d space
The closeness of the lens, (which is narrower than your two eyes,) would exclude a natural, orthoscopic stereo image – unless you were simply adding depth to the flat video via LiDAR?
0:07 …..fam, LOL
The videos can't be exported to play on a VR headset? Has anyone tried it?
The video and movie stuff is the only thing worth buying. The rest of the stuff..meh!
With 3d gaussian splatting this could take a giant leap
They already show 3d like videos on Facebook (etc…) using the phone accelerometer. Not 3d but you would be able to see the effect. That would help boost the number of these kinds of videos.
Great content and I thank you for breaking it down. Even with the current rate, I'm still Glad I can smile back at my portfolio being built weekly.
the same way my 3d camera wow'd us… wait where is that again.. oh in the drawer gathering dust along with the 3d tv glasses 🙂
Goodbye storage space.
I wish you described more what 1080p at 30fps looked like, as well as the QUALITY of the 3D/stereoscopic. Was it like the first few iterations of Portrait mode photos where it actually wasn’t that great, and it’ll take hardware and software improvements over the next few years for it to be really good (with 4k and higher fps definitely, but just in general is it very first-gen). Or, like the Facebook 3D photos that just blur areas, which also are not that great (which presumably is why I don’t see them used that much anymore). In other articles it seemed like more limitations such as no color corrections like Apple log, and in screenshots of the UI it reads “Photos app on Apple Vision Pro” meaning they can only be viewed in the VisionOS Photos app (which hopefully an API will enable other apps to use someday)?
YES Apple please use spatial video to kill off vertical video once and for all.
Exciting stuff. We are living in the technology
Great Video as always. Being in the industry have you heard any leaks about the "estimated" official release date of the Vision Pro
So the blurriness of spacial video, is it to allow for multiple viewing angles, what makes it particularly spacial then just plain stereoscopic 3-D, is there AI processing that gives you multiple viewing angles than just looking straight on?
your norm chan cosplay is spot on!
Right now I can't see myself using these googles. I won't wear a watch, why would I wear a set of googles on my face. In addition I wear glasses for close items. I don't have to wear them for TV. IN other words, googles aren't the future. A projector is.
I mean, those glasses are halfway to the vision pro size. Nothing but love, my friend.
I would guess that they are using the outer edges of each sensor (since it's a 1080p crop) in order to increase the "distance" between the cameras. I think a lot of people were curious how they would be able to get a 3d effect when the cameras are millimeters apart, which shouldn't be enough to actually replicate the 2 eyes POV.
I think this is how they got around it, by taking the leftmost part from one camera and the rightmost part of the other one, but the tradeoff is, that as its a crop, they couldn't do it in 4k. Just my theory.
The Design of this glasses it's BAD
Other phones 2 years ago: 3D videos
iPhone today: we have invented a new feature called spatial video.
What file format is it and it should be possible to play on third party VR setup even with some software right?
Make it cheaper, i think more people will buy it. I like the phrase "memory company"
What's the difference between spatial video and regular 3D video? Does spatial video show parallax effects (a change in perspective if you move side to side)?
Can this work with quest
introducing iPhone 16 pro where all videos are auto cinematic and 3D video where you can edit in post…just like photos that are auto portrait with adjustable depth or focus in post. No need to think or switch between presets
Who REALLY should consider purchasing one? Is there a possibility that this might replace a laptop for productivity?
I dream, as a digital nomad, of having full functionality and benefits of a M’X’ processor inside one of these and being able to use it anywhere… to do anything
I'll admit that I'm disappointed here. "Spatial video" seems to imply MORE than simply your standard stereoscopic side-by-side 3D video (although that IS a great feature). The Pro model also has a Lidar scanner, so I was hoping this was an included PART of the Spatial video recording. I'm hoping maybe there is still more to it than what was said in this video.
Secondly, it would NOT be difficult to implement some interesting ways to use this depth data for playback on an iPhone. For example, while watching the video, if you were to twist the iPhone back and forth, it could be used to snap between different angles of the video, showing off some of that depth information. Hopefully this is a possibility moving forward.
Of course you want 4K. One thing at a time dude. 😂
cool
I wonder how the other type of videos will look on vision pro 😏😏
