Vision Pro: everyone who has tested Apple's AR headset is amazed

• Those who have tested the Vision Pro are blown away
• This is apparently the best VR headset screen in the world
• On the other hand, the device is not really intended for games

Magic,fou,breathtaking,impressive : so many adjectives chosen by the journalists who tested theVision Pro, and which prove to what extent Apple seems to have already transformed the testing of its very first mixed reality headset. The device, which costs a whopping $3,499 (price in euros still unknown), is intended to be the ideal replacement for your Mac by allowing you to generate as many virtual screens as you want. Without the need to invest in any external monitor, and with the same apps.

Among the advantages of the beast that the press is already highlighting, it is above all itsscreenwhich stunned everyone. It must be said that here, each eye is entitled to its 4K display, with apparently undetectable pixels and quality colors. The apps also seem particularly well optimized for rendering.spatial“, especially Safari, where navigation is very natural.

Control without joysticks is successful

With this, specialized media likeRoad to VR notethat the pinching gesture with the fingers which allows you to select elements works almost without a hitch (like clicking a mouse on a computer). In thirty minutes of testing, the functionality will only have failed two or three times, and Apple still has many months to refine its product before marketing.

According toour colleagues fromTechCrunch, who were also able to test the Vision Pro, the time required to adapt to its new interface is very reduced. So, just like when setting up an iPhone for the first time, the operation is quick and simple. Marques Brownlee, for his part, even goes so far as to say that the eye tracking which allows you to do without Magic Mouse to move the cursor across the platform is simply “telepathic“. It's as if the headset is reading your thoughts. In reality, many sensors are installed in the frame to detect eye movements.

Any notable disadvantages?

Despite everything, many also believe that the Vision Pro, for gaming, is not really that. However, rumors suggested that Apple would have gone all out on video games, but theWorldwide Developer Conferencehas proven that this is not the core business of the visor.

And for good reason: the product is rather dedicated toproductivity, and does it better than any other in its category. This makes it easy to open many windows at the same time, like on a Mac, and get to work. It's a revolution.
