WWDC 2023 Apple Event Live Keynote Coverage: Headset, iOS 17, New Macs, and More

[Aeryn]

Would I try this? Yes, absolutely, hand down, no question.

But I seriously can't see using it day-to-day. Watching a movie? It's either going to be squishing your face or loose enough to not squish and instead all the weight resting on the bridge of your nose.

LOL Apple's stock has dropped like a stone from the moment it was announced, it's true.

 

[TigerNike23]

I’ll be that guy. I don’t like this at all.

This doesn’t have the magic of even the Apple Watch reveal.

 

[applepie2100]

It's actually quite sad to see the theatre like this and think back to how keynotes and announcements used to be.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Bob Iger! Wonder what he thinks about Vision Pro.

 

[Yorkieray]

This is the "Pro" model. Expect an "Air" model sometime in the future.

 

[AustinIllini]

Iger is unapologetically a Jobs disciple. His outfit nails it.

 

[Shanghaichica]

It does look good though

 

[jz0309]

Bob Iger wearing an Apple Watch …

 

[ProfessionalFan]

Isn't Disney a competitor with Disney+?!

 

[alexandr]

Ok, so I would pay to have Tom chasing Jerry randomly in the space where I am.

 

[Janichsan]

I have a headache. I need Headache Free Pro.

"Apply directly to the forehead…"

 

[addamas]

This is our future. Can't stop it.

But you will see all dirty tissues, empty cans, beer bottles and pizza boxes around! I prefer VR where you live in new 3D place without dirt :S

Bob Iger: Tim's Tiger

 

[Enygmatic]

Only Apple can pull a “Disney CEO” onstage like it’s nothing.

 

[Septercius]

I wonder if you could make it display a different set of eyes?

Like this:

 

[Kobayagi]

lmfao, this is ridiculous. Honestly, it feels like a parody presentation.

I can just image how fun it is to do 'pro' stuff like switch tabs, turn off pop-up settings per website and turn on picture in picture. Simple stuff like that is sometimes already a chore with a touchscreen. I can just image how fun it with this thing lol.

With screens being just about everywhere on everything these days, the thought should be: 'I should use devices less and actually see the world with my own eyes and get away from screens.' Not put one a few cm from my eyes. xD But hey, that's just me.

I don't like this. I will wait until a couple of generations and see where this thing is going.

 

[spazzcat]

WOW! It fell off a cliff.

I show the stock up not down.

 

[KPOM]

WOW! It fell off a cliff.

All of $2/share. Hardly a "cliff."

Agreed.

Try it...definitely. Purchase it...definitely not.

I'm still looking for the holographic interfaces, but I can see using this for creative uses and general fun. It's not meant to replace every other Apple product.

It's a different way of interacting and having experiences. I am very surprised at negative comments given how long this is has been in the works for Apple and other headsets already on the market. Apple is going to enhance their existing ecosystem first and foremost. Iterations will bring more improvements.

First drop was when the MacPro and Studio wore off, second is on the AR announcement

 

[Mainyehc]

VR gives some people motion sickness, would this also?

I'm guessing yes. This is technically the same technology as VR. It's not a transparent, HUD-like screen, it's re-rendering the entire reality on stereoscopic but traditional screens and superimposing and compositing digital apps on top of it – and outright replacing it in immersion mode, which is effectively a fancier name for traditional VR.
