$3,499 for a headset? Apple's lost their minds. I don't care how "revolutionary" it is, that's more than my monthly rent!

Been using Vision Pro for a week. The spatial computing is mind-blowing. It's like having infinite monitors floating around you. Productivity boost is real.

How's the comfort for extended use? Can you wear it for a full workday?

I'm worried about the privacy implications. The eye-tracking tech is impressive, but it's also tracking everything you look at. Feels a bit Black Mirror to me.

Tried it at the Apple Store. Impressive tech, but the "EyeSight" feature showing your eyes on the outside is just creepy. Uncanny valley territory.

As a developer, I'm excited about the possibilities. The hand tracking is incredibly precise. But the development kit cost is a huge barrier for indie devs.

Using it for 3D modeling. It's like working inside your designs. But it's isolating - can't see my actual workspace or coworkers without switching modes.

The resolution is insane. Watching movies on this thing is like having a personal IMAX. But at that price, it better make me popcorn too.

As someone with mobility issues, the gesture controls are a game-changer. But I wish they'd focused more on accessibility features.

Battery life is a joke. 2 hours of active use? And it needs to be plugged in for "full functionality"? So much for portability.

I think people are missing the point. This isn't meant to replace your iPhone. It's a whole new computing paradigm. Give it time, just like we did with smartphones.

Used it for a video call. Being able to maintain eye contact while having notes floating next to the person's face is neat. But not $3,499 neat.

Hey, y'all see that MKBHD vid on actually using the Vision Pro? Dude's reaction was priceless. Pretty wild stuff, ngl. Worth a watch!
