Imagine being able to telework anywhere, even on public transport, without having to lug around two or three external monitors and a laptop with you. Impossible ? Not anymore.The Apple Vision Pro mixed reality headset, marketed by the Apple firm, finally offers this advantage thanks to virtual displays that can be generated at will. And Mickaël Bazoge, from01net, was able to test the offer in real conditions.
The journalist explainsin particular that with a“effect and relief" who is "quite striking“, the immersion offered by the Disney+ streaming platform proves interesting although it is not possible to deploy a screen larger than a certain size limit. As a reminder, the American video on demand app is not the only one to be offered on the Vision Pro. This is also the case for Redbull TV or Apple TV+.
The concern for comfort is very present
What's more, the Apple Vision Pro remains quite heavy with more thansix cents grammeson the scale. The 01net journalist explains that it is more than a Meta Quest 3, except that the latter integrates its battery directly into the mount where that of Cupertino offers it detached. Moreover, the mass measured here does not take the battery into account. The latter allows – in theory – to obtain an autonomy of around two hours (maximum).

Concretely, if you plan to walk wherever you want with a Vision Pro to watch films, play video games or work online, you will have to go back. The good news is that Apple already seems to know. Thus, the companyTim Cookis reportedly working on a lighter (and cheaper!) version of its mixed reality headset. The device could see the light of day in 2026, but nothing is less certain at the moment. In the long term, we could also see augmented reality glasses or lenses with the same advantage, still from the manufacturer across the Atlantic. Patents filed with the American organization responsible for protecting companies' intellectual property demonstrate this, in black and white.
