Without a shortish 2-hour life on a cord and battery for one. Designed to be used on the street/in public for another considering augmented reality, ie way-finding for example as another. Without it designed like bulbous ski goggles for yet another. Priced under $3K for one more.

Surely you expect a much trimmer generation two which IMO would be the one intended for consumers anyway. This one is not, thus not yet fully hatched.   

And it will eventually happen. This is Apple Vision PRO which clearly suggests it's designed for pros and programmers to work on and Apple will deliver cheaper long lasting Vision products. 

But the Apple strategy is very good - Apple gets the patents done and brings the revolutionary UX for "spatial computing" and that's where we're heading. Others have brought terrible UX, inferior quality designs, and awkward designs. Apple gets all the UX done correctly and THINKS about privacy and security, sorely lacking in other competitors from ground up. Thanks to Apple's patents, it's unlikely the competitors will be able to compete for a long time.

The VIDEO dude. As it was announced. They clearly tried to minimize cable visibility. The hippie with long hair, the Asian girl wearing curtains, etc. it was glaring. Don’t pretend. 

I noticed the cable right away but why does that matter?

I don't think people really get it - Apple's Vision Pro has 5000 patents and that includes UX and that effectively prevents competitors from copying the whole implementation of operating system and the hardware configurations. Just watch competitors try to get away with copying Apple's Vision Pro. 

There is literally no "true" operating system that is tightly integrated like Apple Vision Pro. We've seen competition AR glasses and they sucked. Their UX is terrible and awkward. The UI in Apple Vision Pro is extremely intuitive and natural. 

Given the high performance capabilities (complex sensors, complex chips, 2 4K microOLED displays, high quality comfort head scarfs, etc) of Apple Vision Pro, do you honestly expect Apple to sell for less???? 

Apple is essentially revolutionizing the whole AR world and manages to take privacy and security seriously.  

Apple does the AR right and nailed it perfectly with UX, unlike many failures of other companies that just don't really think about the whole UX. Their platforms always feel disconnected, incoherent, and awkward. 

I am so happy that Apple finally brings Profiles to Safari!!!
