Apple’s Vision Pro is a bad product with an even worse vision for the future of computation.
New sales numbers prove it’s a failure, but more than that it shows the idea of tech’s inevitability is a myth. We have the collective power to stop tech that doesn’t serve us.
Apple is cutting Vision Pro production as it fails to meet sales targets.
Analysts expected it to sell 700-800k units in 2024, but it could now be as low as 400k. A lower cost model could now be pushed beyond 2025, if it ever arrives.
Had my library 3D print the @christianselig#VisionPro stand. Learned a lot about 3D printing and think I spent an hour removing supports. That said looks great. Just need a dowel now.
What if you never ever had to put your phone down? Ever?
Eddy Burback's "Apple's $3500 Nightmare" video essay is ridiculous, absurdist, and amazing. Low key humor exploring the dystopian nightmare that VR/AR is ushering in for... reasons?
If you are interested in, less about a tech review, and more about what tech like the Vision Pro mean for humans I recommend giving it a view.

There’s a new way to browse Apple’s App Store for its Apple Vision Pro. On Apple’s website, you can now find a dedicated “App Store for Apple Vision Pro” page with all the details about visionOS apps. 9to5mac has more: https://flip.it/Q7R53r #Tech#Technology#Apple#AppStore#VisionPro
The hype around Apple Vision Pro seems to have faded since its launch. It could be that people are finding it less practical and more cumbersome than they expected.
@nixCraft SO happy to see that for once, Apple suffers at the Peak of Inflated Expectations rather than just scraping of everyone else's accomplishments, ideas and laid-off workers in the Trough of Disillusionment and making big bucks on the Plateau of Productivity #gartnerhypecycle#visionpro
Today forScore arrives on its fourth platform: visionOS! Redesigning the sheet music reading experience for Vision Pro was a really fun challenge and I'm very proud of where things ended up.
Thanks so much to everyone who helped me beta test it—I think this is the start of something really special and I'm glad you could be a part of it.
The tech press is lauding Apple for delivering on its Vision Pro headset. But using the $3,500 goggles may rewire our brains in unexpected ways. Here’s more from Business Insider. https://flip.it/mCZjtC #Tech#Apple#VisionPro#VR
Patrzac na ostatnie doniesienia z #USA, gdzie ludzie przechodza przez ulice, a nawet prowadza samochody (no dobra, to tesla, wiec jazda jest pewnie do jakiegos stopnia autonomiczna, ale nadal...) w #Apple#VisionPro, ciekaw jestem czy doczekamy sie ostrzezen na pudelkach, w stylu tych "kawa jest goraca"? 🤔
At nearly $3,500, the much-hyped Apple Vision Pro headset may not be for everyone, but it has begun arriving to the people who pre-ordered it. It’s also available for those who want to give it a test drive. Here’s more from Tech Crunch, including their first impressions of the AR/VR headset. https://flip.it/N_kyVF #Tech#Apple#VisionPro#Technology#TechCrunch
“No amount of criticism or public indifference will stop tech companies from trying to get us opt into their isolating technology, into their enclosure, where they can not only capture more of our biometric gestures … but can fully mediate reality to us.”
Due to its astronomical price tag the #Apple#VisionPro is as far removed from affordability as any device has been for a long time. So, no #visionOS software for a loong time… 🤷🏻♂️
The reviews are in for the #VisionPro and we now know that you can't share what you are seeing in the headset. That to me immediately disqualifies it as a "Spatial Computing" device.
If you look at Dynamicland's website (the OG spatial computing system): https://dynamicland.org/
the very first benefit of Spatial Computing is communal collaboration.
