If they really think the colour options are what’s holding back the Vision Pro, they’re out of their mind.

Space black concept looks pretty slick.

As for the HomePod mini… could they, like, put a detachable cable on it?? 🙏
 
This bizarre notion of Vision Pro being "isolating" is not a factor. We use our iPads, MacBooks and iPhones alone the vast majority of the time. Vision Pro is simply an iPad/MacBook Studio Display in a wearable form factor. In a few generations the price will come down to allow for shared spatial movie watching but that's not even 1% of what Vision Pro is capable of.
I agree, its a hell of a device but I find the FOV poor and the weight is bad. I've tried several straps and got it better but its still not perfect. I'll rebox it up and probably list it this week but I can absolutely see the potential in the next gens.
 
I am betting the VP is getting a colour change because current owners of the VP have been complaining how dirty the white/silver VP's gets over time and that many years later when the VP get's discontinued we will hear of a leaked document that details a meeting where a VP engineer suggested a black colour scheme because white will show up too much dirt but that engineer's view/opinion/suggestion was dismissed.
 
I always find it funny when individuals project their own lack of understanding or interest towards new tech as though it were shared by all. I don’t like it? It must be a failure.

The AVP is the gold standard for virtual reality headsets in both hardware and user experience. As a VR enthusiast, nothing compares. When the Vision Pro dropped, every other VR hardware manufacturer quickly shifted to a user experience that roughly mimics it.

I’d be curious to see sales numbers against the overall market for something like the Mac Studio versus other premium media workstation prebuilts, and then draw comparisons against those numbers and the market penetration of the Vision Pro.

I estimate that its success is relatively comparable to Apple’s other super premium devices.

Using the Apple Vision Pro is a phenomenal and almost religious experience to use for the first time, and I say that as someone who has owned many headsets. It’s the first headset that was able to make the -out of the future- experience of pass through learning of Piano, actually enjoyable and not sickening (Pianovision).

If you aren’t the target user, don’t fret. You can still find televisions with dials on them and that may be more your speed. I will on the other hand use a headset with a dial, pretending I am being as productive as the Porsche engineers who regularly use the devices for 3D AR visualization.
