Apple fans are starting to return their Vision Pros::The return window for the very first Apple Vision Pro buyers is fast approaching — and some have taken to social media to explain why they won’t be keeping their headsets.
Can’t use it for games. Can’t use it for porn. What is it for?
For showing off. Of course.
It runs Steam Link very well and has a number of built in games too. And it runs porn great, just not the stereoscopic videos by default, but you can sideload an app for that too.
Yeah, but surely you’d want actual VR games, rather than just Steam Link to a big virtual screen.
Half Life Alyx is a great game, but there’s no way it would ever come to this headset just because of the lack of VR controllers.
I played Alyx already twice through and have no desire to play it again. I have a valve index and a gaming PC for those experiences. The AVR most definitely won’t replace those games, but they are few and far in between right now.
Wait why couldn’t you use it for porn
3D VR porn. You can still watch 2D pornhub porn.
Build it and they will cum
I just gotta say that’s a really great comeback 😂

Easier said than done. Apple likes to moderate every app and there’s 0 sideloading.
It can be side loaded actually

Oh yea, credit where credit is due. Apple products are always engineering marvels. But man you can do so much more for almost 1/10th of the cost.
Meh, lots of Apple products have heat dissipation issues. Most notably some of the recent macbooks had that issue iirc.
They’re good, but some of the design choices force some hefty technical compromises.

Why doesn’t it support 3D VR porn?
Most of those are just video’s aren’t they? Can’t the Apple glasses run videos?
It doesn’t support it out of the box but it’s just a computer… you install the media player that supports that.
Not just porn, but 3D videos in general are stereoscopic videos where it’s side by side. They look like this. Without something proper to split the video across your eyes, you just see this 2D video floating in space rather than get the full 3D experience.

You can do that on a normal screen though.
