Tomorrow will be two weeks since the Apple Vision Pro went on sale, a device with which Apple intends to go far beyond bringing innovation to the mixed/augmented reality ecosystem. As Tim Cook himself said in his presentation, Cupertino during WWDC 2023 pulled out the concept of spatial computing from its sleeve, with which it intends to make it clear that we are not talking about a simple viewer, but rather an independent one with the computing capacity of a computer.

It was a risky bet, but the early data seems to be positive, with around 200,000 units reserved before going on saleand reviews that are generally positive. I already mentioned it, perfection does not exist and expecting it in the first version of a new type of device is doomed to disappointment. The Apple Vision Pro has aspects that could no doubt be improved, and I’m sure that its second generation will be a significant improvement and that the third will be the one to mark the before and after, but as a debut it seems more than decent to me.

However, as we can read on Yahoo! technique, The first Apple Vision Pro returns are already underway. There are no concrete numbers, that is, we do not know the number of users who have decided to return their devices to Apple (and we will probably never know, because it seems very unlikely that Apple will publish such information), although everything points to We are talking about a total a low number. However, they will find the reasons they use to justify their decisions the most interesting.

The most frequently mentioned reason is its weight and in connection with the fact that its distribution makes its use inconvenient. I understand that last point, maybe Apple didn’t lay out the components in the best possible way to distribute the weight better. However, the complaint about the weight in itself seems to me to be hardly justified, because from the first moment, when it was given, it was quite clear that it would not be a particularly light device. I apologize for buying the Apple Vision Pro only to return it later due to its weight, and I don’t want to play devil’s advocate, but it seems to me that it makes very little sense to buy.

QOn the other hand, I have read that there are also objections to its execution and… well, we’re in the same situation. You can like it more or less, of course, but Apple showed the design of the Apple Vision Pro from day one, and the media that attended WWDC 2023 could start publishing their first impressions from that first moment. If anyone was taken aback by the design of the Apple Vision Pro, I understand that he spent the last year on Mars (and no internet) and that when he returned to Earth he reserved the Apple browser without bothering to see a single image.

I finally read it too There are those who believe that the image quality is insufficient. This is somewhat more complicated because it is true that Apple has fitted two exceptional screens into the browser, but it is also true that for the type of experience they intend to provide, some experts say that a higher resolution would be necessary. Let’s recall that two Micro-OLED panels of the size of a stamp are mounted on it and that between them it adds up to 23 million pixels, so the density is spectacular.
