(Full disclosure: I returned the unit I originally bought, but Apple sent along a sample for further testing.) Mostly, that means not forcing myself to use the headset for large chunks of the day. Instead, my Vision Pro time is more purpose-driven: I slip it on in the morning and project my MacBook&#8217;s screen to clear out emails and catch up on Slack conversations, all while a YouTube video is virtually projected on my wall.<\/p>\n<p>In the middle of a work session, or sometimes right before diving into a busy workday, I run through a five- or ten-minute meditation session with the Mindfulness app. I can easily meditate without any headgear, but I&#8217;ve found the app&#8217;s calm narration and the immersive environment it creates (since it completely blocks out the real world) to be incredibly helpful. It&#8217;s like having your own yoga teacher on staff, ready to help calm your brain whenever you have a free moment.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also learned to appreciate the Vision Pro as a way to expand where I can get work done. As someone who&#8217;s been primarily working from home since 2009, I learned early on that changing locations was an easy way to keep myself engaged. I try not to write in the same place where I&#8217;ve been checking email in the morning, for example. I normally hop between a PC desktop and large monitor (currently it&#8217;s Alienware&#8217;s 32-inch 4K OLED) in my office, and a MacBook Air or Pro for writing around the house. Sometimes I&#8217;ll go to a nearby park or cafe when I need to zone into a writing assignment for several hours.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\" style=\"max-height: 626px\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\" style=\"padding-bottom:65%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"Using the Apple Vision Pro\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/pXSOzgE7O5UXpVvarSy1OQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTYyNg--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/17423e30-f683-11ee-a62b-6c0fb4049085\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Using the Apple Vision Pro\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/pXSOzgE7O5UXpVvarSy1OQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTYyNg--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/17423e30-f683-11ee-a62b-6c0fb4049085\" class=\"caas-img\"\/><\/noscript><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\"><span class=\"caption-credit\"> Photo by Devindra Hardawar\/Engadget<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>With the Vision Pro, I can actually handle some serious multitasking from my deck or kitchen without being tied to a desktop computer. I&#8217;ve found that useful for covering events to avoid getting stuck inside my basement office (I can have a video streaming on a virtual window, as well as Slack and web browsers open via a projected MacBook). I&#8217;ve juggled conference calls while being sick in bed with the Vision Pro, because it felt more comfortable than staring down at a tiny laptop display.<\/p>\n<p>I still haven\u2019t traveled much with the headset, but I can foresee it being useful the next time I take a weekend trip with my family. <a data-i13n=\"cpos:5;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nchan?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Tested's Norman Chan;cpos:5;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><em>Tested&#8217;s<\/em> Norman Chan<\/a> told me he&#8217;s used the Vision Pro during long flights, where it makes the hours just disappear. I&#8217;m still working myself up to that \u2014 I&#8217;d much rather use a small laptop and headphones on planes, but I can imagine the beauty of watching big-screen movies on the Vision Pro while everyone else is staring at tablets or cramped seat-back displays.<\/p>\n<p>The Vision Pro remains a fantastic way to watch movies or TV shows at home, as well. When I&#8217;m too tired to head downstairs after putting my kids to sleep, I sometimes just veg in bed while projecting YouTube videos or anime on the ceiling. That&#8217;s where I experienced a trippy temporal shift while watching <em>X-Men &#8217;97<\/em>: As soon as its remastered theme song spun up, I was immediately transported back to watching the original show on a 13-inch TV in my childhood bedroom. If I could somehow jump back into the past, <em>Bishop<\/em>-style, it would be impossible to convince my 10-year-old self that I&#8217;d eventually be watching a sequel series in a futuristic headset, projected in a 200-inch window.

They looked cold and inhuman, the exact sort of thing you&#8217;d imagine from soulless digital clones. The visionOS 1.1 update made them a bit less disturbing, but I didn&#8217;t truly like the avatars until Apple unveiled Spatial Personas last week. Instead of being confined to a window, Spatial Personas hover in your virtual space, allowing you to collaborate with friends as if they were right beside you.<\/p>\n<p>The concept isn&#8217;t entirely new: I <a data-i13n=\"cpos:6;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/microsoft-mesh-holograms-hololens-ar-vr-164001796.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:tested Microsoft Mesh;cpos:6;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">tested Microsoft Mesh<\/a> a few years ago with a HoloLens 2 headset, which also brought digital avatars right into my home office. But they looked more like basic Miis from the Nintendo Wii than anything realistic. <a data-i13n=\"cpos:7;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/facebook-horizon-workrooms-oculus-vr-meeting-collaboration-110018369.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Meta's Horizon Workrooms;cpos:7;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Meta&#8217;s Horizon Workrooms<\/a> did something similar in completely virtual spaces, but that&#8217;s not nearly as impressive as collaborating digitally atop a view of the real world.<\/p>\n<p>Apple&#8217;s Spatial Personas are far more compelling than Microsoft\u2019s and Meta&#8217;s efforts because they&#8217;re seamless to set up \u2014 you just have to flip on Spatial mode during a FaceTime chat \u2014 and they feel effortlessly organic. During a Spatial Persona call with Norm from <em>Tested<\/em>, we were conversing as if he was sitting right in front of me in my home theater. We were able to draw and write together in the Freeform app easily \u2014 when I stood up and reached out to the drawing board, it was almost as if we were standing beside each other at a real white board.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\" style=\"max-height: 540px\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\" style=\"padding-bottom:56%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"Apple Vision Pro Spatial Persona collaboration\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/Kzr1GgRDf1UFVl8wHaZ7LA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MA--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/bc24a190-f683-11ee-bf9e-53b666c2a76d\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Apple Vision Pro Spatial Persona collaboration\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/Kzr1GgRDf1UFVl8wHaZ7LA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MA--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/bc24a190-f683-11ee-bf9e-53b666c2a76d\" class=\"caas-img\"\/><\/noscript><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\"><span class=\"caption-credit\"> Photo by Devindra Hardawar\/Engadget<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h3><strong>SharePlay with Spatial Personas<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We were also able to customize our viewing experiences while watching a bit of <em>Star Trek Beyond<\/em> together using SharePlay in the Vision Pro. Norm chose to watch it in 2D, I watched in 3D, and our progress was synchronized. The experience felt more engrossing than a typical SharePlay experience, since I could just lean over and chat with him instead of typing out a message or saying something over a FaceTime call. I also couldn&#8217;t help but imagine how easy it would be to record movie commentaries for podcasts using Spatial Personas. (We&#8217;d have to use separate microphones and computers, in addition to Vision Pros, but it would make for a more comfortable recording session than following movies on a monitor or TV.)<\/p>\n<p>Our attempts to play games together failed, unfortunately, because we were running slightly different versions of <em>Game Room<\/em>. We also didn\u2019t have enough time during our session to sync our apps up. I eventually was able to try out Chess and Battleship with other Vision Pro-equipped friends and, once again, it felt like they were actually playing right beside me. (Norm and <em>CNET&#8217;s <\/em>Scott Stein also looked like they were <a data-i13n=\"cpos:8;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/computing\/spatial-personas-have-turned-my-apple-vision-pro-into-a-telepresence-machine\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:having a ball with virtual chess;cpos:8;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">having a ball with virtual chess<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>The main stumbling block for Spatial Personas, of course, is that they require a $3,500 headset. Apple is laying the groundwork for truly great telepresence experiences, but it won&#8217;t matter for most people until they can actually afford a Vision Pro or a cheaper Apple headset down the line.<\/p>\n<p>With Horizon Workrooms, Meta allowed non-VR users to join virtual meetings using Messenger on phones and computers, so that they weren\u2019t left out. Standard FaceTime users can also join Vision Pro chats alongside spatial personas, but they&#8217;ll be stuck in a window. And unlike Meta&#8217;s offering, regular users won&#8217;t be able to see any virtual environments (though you could still collaborate on specific apps like FreeForm). Meta&#8217;s big advantage over Apple was with capacity: Horizon Workrooms supports up to 16 people in VR, as well as 34 more calling in from other devices. Spatial Persona chats, on the other hand, are limited to five participants.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\" style=\"max-height: 543px\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-loader\" style=\"padding-bottom:57%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"Apple Immersive Video\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/3_hFm1zxGwfc7ak6FupoEw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0Mw--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/8de80590-f694-11ee-b7f3-bb9904a052ee\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Apple Immersive Video\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/3_hFm1zxGwfc7ak6FupoEw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0Mw--\/https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/creatr-uploaded-images\/2024-04\/8de80590-f694-11ee-b7f3-bb9904a052ee\" class=\"caas-img\"\/><\/noscript><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\"><span class=\"caption-credit\"> Apple<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h3><strong>No momentum for Immersive Video<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Apple&#8217;s 180-degree Immersive Video format was one of the most impressive aspects of the Vision Pro when I previewed it last year, and the handful of experiences at launch were pretty compelling. But the Immersive Video well has been dry since launch \u2014 the only new experience was a five-minute short showing off the 2023 MLS Playoffs, which was mostly disappointing.<\/p>\n<p>While that short had such great resolution and depth that it felt like I was actually on the pitch, the MLS experience is disorienting because it cuts far too often, and with no sense of rhythm. Once you get settled into a scene, perhaps watching someone gear up for a well-placed goal, the camera view changes and you have no idea where you are. It&#8217;s almost like a five-minute lesson in what not to do with Immersive Video. Hopefully, the MLS has a longer experience in the works.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not expecting a tsunami of Immersive Video content, since the Vision Pro is still an obscenely expensive device meant for developers and professionals, but it would be nice to see more of a push from Apple.

They still look more realistic than 2D clips, but I\u2019ve grown to dislike the 1080p\/30fps limitation.
