That being said, you know, the Wi-Fi router is like 10 feet away. Right, sure. Yeah. And nothing else ever says this is a bad Wi-Fi connection right here in my seat at my desk. So anyway, and I would argue that's the way to actually judge it anyway is when using it on Wi-Fi because that's how it's really made.

Because the developer strap gives you a second cable down the other side of the Vision Pro. By the way, I actually did solve my Vision Pro standby issues. Quick aside here, I've decided when I'm not using the Vision Pro, I just disconnect the battery cable from it. Which is, you know, that's obviously like, it's like unplugging a desktop.

It powers off immediately and it does not do a clean shutdown. But I don't care. And when I disconnect the battery cable for storage, I did that last time I put it away. That was probably, what, two weeks ago? I got it out this time.

perfect charge it booted up just fine the battery still showed green like everything was totally fine so if you actually unplug it from its battery it does last substantially longer than standby mode anyway so going back to the to the screen uh the mag virtual display update the latency is still a problem for me the sharpness is still really poor the

When you look directly at something and you kind of stabilize yourself, I'll get to that in a second, you can see what it is. It's not like the pixels are so blurred that you can't read lettering or you can't see lines. It's not that bad. But it is blurred. And when you look at the optical pipeline of what is being shown on a Vision Pro, it has to be blurred. We are nowhere near blurred.

the optical resolution or screen resolution required to actually replicate the pixel density of a computer monitor at a regular distance inside the Vision Pro. We're nowhere near it. We are many generations away from that being realistically possible, if it ever comes. So it is substantially blurrier than looking at a real monitor. It has substantial latency.

And then one of the big killers for me... is the Vision Pro has significant motion blur when you move your head or eyes very much. When you look at the design of Vision Pro native apps, everything is huge. The control, the windows are huge. The buttons are huge. The text is pretty big. Everything about Vision Pro or Vision native apps, everything is big.

And it's simulated to be somewhat far away from you too. And so everything like, you don't notice the motion blur as much. And then the best thing to do, in my opinion, with the Vision Pro is watch 3D video content or immersive content. And with that, you don't really see it at all because of the type of viewing you're doing in there.

The small amount of motion blur when you move your head is kind of just blurred away and compensated for with everything else you're seeing.

But when you're looking at a computer screen, which has a very high pixel density, trying to make all these nice sharp windows and nice sharp text in this window, the motion blur of the Vision Pro, just moving your own head, just even very slight movements as you operate your computer, you notice it constantly. At least I did. And so I found it very unpleasant to use.
