Apple Shares New 'First-Timer' Ad for Vision Pro

[MacRumors]

Apple today shared a new "First-Timer" ad that emphasizes how easy it is to use the Vision Pro, which launched in the U.S. today.

"Apple Vision Pro is so simple to navigate using your eyes, hands, and voice," says Apple. "It's like you already know how to use it."

Apple also shared support videos with overviews of the Settings app, Control Center, Guest User mode, accessibility features, and more on visionOS.

Apple said the Vision Pro will launch in additional countries later this year.

Egh. bit creepy

One of the best ad Apple made in a long time. Reminds me of Steve Jobs era iPad ads.

No it isn’t.

It's so easy, an Android user can do it!

Once it gets a 6G modem in the 2030s then I'll jump right in.

So an unemployed dude living in his girlfriend's apartment has an AppleVision Pro. Right.

Did we all watch the same commercial? I thought it was fine.

A nice one! Reminds me of the first iPhone commercial.

 

[contacos]

I am surprised it doesn’t have a dock to be honest. Seems much more intuitive on my Quest

That’s because it was. People are just being ridiculous, as usual.

That is Super Bowl ready.

People got very upset last time I called this a dystopian nightmare, so I will avoid doing so here.

 

[StoneJack]

This was as good as iPhone's first ad.
And we know what happened to iPhone after that.

Despite the luke warm reception, I think I will pick one up when they become available on the UK. It'll be a business write off anyway, so with that off my bottom line and the VAT back it's not too bad - if I don't use it or get on with it i'll sell it and recoup most of the costs.

I've been trying to find the perfect 27" monitor to replace the now iMac Pro sized hole on my wall...maybe this is it instead...maybe.

I mean the definition of dystopian is

"a very bad or unfair society in which there is a lot of suffering, especially an imaginary society in the future, after something terrible has happened"

He's just got a pair of goggles on mate, it's not that deep.

The Apple Studio Display is a pretty good 27" monitor, heck of a lot cheaper than the Vision Pro.

I wouldn’t say something half the cost is a hell of a lot cheaper, especially when all it does is display an image. Value wise it seems they couldn’t even be compared.

Maybe she got it for him so he won’t bother her while she’s busy on her iPhone.

I agree it is great - my only problem is I need the cable to go through the wall...and they hard wired it!!

I've been making custom IEC cables for everything else. I am tempted to get one and just cut the plug off the end, send it through the conduit and wire a new one on.

 

[DelayedGratificationGene]

Wow just Wow

originally ordered the Vision Pro on day one… But canceled because I wanted to demo it first. I went to the Apple Store today, and there was a very short line, so I demoed one. Honestly, it was heavier than I thought it would be. They only had the wideband, so I would expect the loop band would’ve helped. That said… It was stunningly amazing!… way beyond what I ever expected! I realized that it’s something you need to personally experience to appreciate. I really haven’t seen any reviews or advertising that comes close to capturing immersive this is. Only a few people were there for the demo and all but one we’re still on the fence and not sure if they were going to buy one. Everyone left with one if that tells you anything. Sidenote, Go check it out for yourself if you can!

I like my Studio display a lot but I find it uncomfortable to wear on a plane and the battery life is poor.

Good because it would be major hyperbole.

We did but it's well known in psychology that some can be open to new ideas, and some will always be closed, so we see different things.
