Now, admittedly, they've put out very little of it. And it's coming in at a snail's pace. But it is unlike anything I've ever experienced. It is so much better than any other cinema-like experience I've ever had. It is truly, truly phenomenal. And they are releasing more stuff. It is way too slow. but they are doing it. And I believe there's going to be an immersive film.
I don't know if it's a short film or a film film sometime either late this year or early next year. And I'm really excited to watch it because I think it'll be super cool. Additionally, when I went to Memphis a couple of weeks ago, I did travel with the Vision Pro, but because both of my flights were so darn short, I didn't bother using it on the plane.

But on occasions that I have used it on a plane, leaving aside that you are literally 1 trillion percent that guy. If you don't mind being that guy, it's unreal because you're in an incredible movie theater. You're not in a plane. You're in an incredible movie theater by yourself. Nobody's around you. And it's amazing.

Additionally, when I was in Memphis, I did get the Vision Pro out because I did have a little bit of downtime to do work. And you know what the Vision Pro is? It's a giant-ass screen that doesn't take up a giant-ass amount of space in your bag. Well, it doesn't take up a small amount of space in your bag, but you know what I mean.

No, you know what I mean.
No, you know what I mean.
Maybe. Maybe. But you know, I mean, we're snarking, but you know exactly what I'm saying. And it was really great for that. It really, truly was. I was in this actually very small hotel room. And yes, it had a mediocre TV that I think I probably could have hooked up to my laptop.

But it was so much nicer to use Vision Pro because I was suddenly in a different space and I've got this huge screen in front of me. And especially with the developer strap, it is basically lag-free. I think the fidelity of it, admittedly, my eyes are not perfect, but the fidelity of it is great. Like, there are times the Vision Pro is incredible.

I do not argue that it is, to my eyes, it appears that it is a flop. Now, we don't know what Apple's expectations were. Maybe they expected to sell three of them, in which case, mission accomplished. But I suspect they wanted to sell a whole heck of a lot more. Certainly, the rumblings we've heard in the press is that they wanted to sell a whole heck of a lot more. And they haven't.

So it is a flop by most measures. But if you have an obscene amount of money to burn and light on fire and have these specific use cases, I don't want to continue to slag in the Vision Pro because in certain circumstances, it's unlike and better than everything else I've ever tried. Admittedly, those circumstances are few and far between, but they do exist.

And I do think that this is a really solid precursor to something like AR glasses. It's going to look way different, both inside, outside, in every way. It's going to look different than the Vision Pro does. But I think it is a reasonable precursor. And those who have embraced the Vision OS and Vision Pro

It's going to look different than the Vision Pro does. But I think it is a reasonable precursor. And those who have embraced the Vision OS and Vision Pro
their AR experience when designing stuff for Apple Glasses, they're going to be ahead of the game because they've already done it. The same way that Underscore was way ahead of the game for widgets on iOS because all the APIs were basically just ripped from watchOS for complications and stuff. I think I have that right, but you get the idea either way.
