I use mine every day for work and play. Get a face shield…you don’t use an iPhone without a case, do you? My light seal is fine and like I mentioned, it’s getting heavy use. The solo knit band is awesome, but anyone who knows anything about headsets knows you need the dual-band….I wish it was a hybrid of the two. The solo band is really just for guest mode.
Got a tip for us?

PSA: If You Bought Vision Pro at Launch, Your Return Window Ends Friday

At $3500+ it’s too much money. People bought it with no intention of keeping it just to try it out. Especially if you are a YouTuber or wannabe influencer trying to create some content.
So many people likely bought this for the immediate clout and happened to “find something they dislike” about it to justify returning something they couldn’t afford in the first place.
Why are so many people returning their Vision Pro?
Because it didn't live up to the hype. Will get there in a few generations.
It obviously has nothing to do with VR being inherently uncomfortable for most people. It’s obviously just poor people hating Apple.
All the youtubers made their money from the videos, they're all pretty much the same, so a bunch are going back.
Apple will be confused when they notice they are selling five times as many Solo Knit Bands than AVPs.
There was a poll in the forum for keep vs return.
I recall it’s half half, and on an Apple forum nonetheless
I think that’s what the Vision Pro should’ve been honestly , only a media device
A media device that you need to find, charge, pick up, wear, and very heavy is probably not going to be used much
I personally know someone who returned his. I asked him why and he said it wasn’t what he expected. He didn’t go into details.
I imagine people bought it with high hopes but using it for anything but a toy is inefficient and cumbersome compared to using a legacy device. Then they get around to asking themselves if they’d use it enough to justify the price and their conclusion is no.
Many negatives: cost, discomfort, reported health issues, lack of application/utility.
I'm wondering about who will buy these again at half the price. Certainly these will move if the price is right. At around $1900 something like this would be perhaps a hot item. Who knows,
