Wall Street Journal gadget reviewer Joanna Stern got to try out Apple's new Vision Pro. Stern's video then zooms in, the contrast and lighting shifts, and you see this…WSJ tech reviewer's forehead looks red after she wore an Apple Vision Pro WSJ/Joanna Stern/YouTubeYikes! Apple told Stern any discomfort she encountered after wearing Vision Pro goggles may have been because it only had limited-sized "light seals" at the demonstration space. Apple's Vision Pro is constructed of aluminum alloy and a snazzy single piece of exterior glass, which is why it looks so much nicer than the competition. Apple's new Vision Pro headset was announced on Monday at the company's WWDC conference.

Apple's $3,499 Vision Pro headset was the main focus of its Monday event. The Apple Vision Pro headset was the biggest announcement at its Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday, but there's nothing beyond official ads that show people actually using the $3,499 device. If you want to see the Vision Pro in use, you'll have to wait a bit longer to see anything that isn't curated by the people selling it. Apple execs also declined to speak on the record about the headset, Wired reported. Despite this, the Vision Pro is getting pretty good reviews, and you'd hope so given its huge price tag.

Apple Vision Pro costs almost $4,000 after tax. At 7x more than the Quest 3, the Vision Pro should be far more powerful and capable – and of course, it is. Price skimming is a strategy where a company sets the initial price of a product very high, then gradually lowers it over time. It keeps profits high throughout a product's lifecycle: By pricing products high at launch, Apple maximizes its profits from these early sales. Given these red marks WSJ gadget reviewer Joanna Stern walked away with after using Apple Vision Pro for just 20 minutes, I remain skeptical…

Apple let some people try out its new Vision Pro mixed-reality headset. The Vision Pro will allow users to see apps in a new way, in the spaces around them. The Wall Street Journal's Joanna Stern said the Vision Pro was intuitive to use, has the "fit and finish" of an Apple gadget, and is more comfortable than Meta Quest Pro or Quest 2. Stern said Apple showed her a number of different demos, and she said she thinks the most valuable initial uses for the Vision Pro will be for watching movies and working. 9to5Mac's Chance Miller said that it was easy to get the Vision Pro to feel "snug" and that it was generally pretty comfortable.

Following the announcement of Apple's Vision Pro headset at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, some attendees were whisked away in golf carts to a location on the company's campus to try out the new headset. Many noted the device's display screens were impressive (each have a more-than 4K resolution) and its hand-eye scrolling and tapping functions were responsive and worked mostly smoothly. YouTuber Brownlee said the most impressive thing about the headset was the device's internal eye-tracking technology, calling the experience "telepathic." The Verge's Patel was impressed by the device's display, which he said was "easily the highest-resolution VR display I have ever seen," and its "video passthrough" technology — the device's display adjusting to show a person who is talking to you in-person or your surroundings. "The most perfect headset demo reel of all time is still just a headset demo reel — whether Apple's famed developer community can generate a killer app for the Vision Pro is still up in the air," The Verge's Patel wrote.

10 Things in Tech: Hello, Apple Vision Pro
  + stars: | 2023-06-06 | by ( Lara O'Reilly | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
The Nerd Helmet, as coined by The Wall Street Journal's Joanna Stern, has arrived! Apple on Monday unveiled its first hardware release in almost a decade: The $3,499 Vision Pro mixed-reality headset. But while Meta has aimed to make VR/AR affordable for the masses, with limited success, Apple is squarely aiming the Vision Pro at early adopters and developers. Apple's Vision Pro headset has an exterior "EyeSight" display to make your eyes visible to others around you. Say hello to the Vision Pro.

The initial reviews were mixed and skeptics questioned whether even Apple could make virtual reality anything more than a niche technology. But boosters say that if any company can make it mainstream, it’s Apple with its ecosystem of two billion iPhone, iPad and Mac users. “We believe Apple Vision Pro is a revolutionary product,” Tim Cook told developers and journalists on Monday. It certainly looks like an Apple product: Unlike other virtual reality headsets, an external display shows your eyes to others, and the device is controlled using hand gestures, eye movements and your voice. “The most perfect headset demo reel of all time is still just a headset demo reel,” wrote Nilay Patel of The Verge.

Photo illustration: Elena ScottiWASHINGTON—The chief executive of ChatGPT creator OpenAI is set to testify before a Senate panel Tuesday as lawmakers begin a bipartisan push toward regulating the powerful new artificial-intelligence tools available to consumers. Sam Altman, who is making his first appearance before Congress, is expected to support calls for regulatory guardrails on the technology so that potential harms such as misinformation or fraud don’t outweigh benefits.
