So, you're telling me that I can ski on a dangerous mountain and watch my favourite movie at the same time??? AWESOME!
Unless they implement the feature where if you're moving too fast it turns off stuff (ala how carplay won't let you use apps thru siri)
Technically yes. I wouldn’t advise it.
And do work at the same time and time your pasta to get the perfect Al dente when you get back to the cabin
It won’t save you from falling that is the beauty of this product.
I could see someone's love one getting addicted to this already, thank goodness it's too expensive to mass produce it to the general population 😅
It will be interesting to come back to this video in 10 years and see how far things have come.
As if apple invented VR 🤨
@@SuperKREPSINIS Mostly AR
@@andresbarriga5305 not even ar
@@SuperKREPSINISperfect AR…other headsets suck
@@SuperKREPSINIS remember when meta tried to get people to go to work in VR? well.... apple is gonna invent that first too.
The floating timers over the pots were really cool.
That was actually my cousins idea. He’s been an apple dev for 7 years
People have cooked food without this for thousands of years dude. Don’t fall for that and save your money and time!
@@SimbolicProductionsawesome!
@@Awesomenes37It's cool.
@@Awesomenes37 why not a voice command in the apple watch? or in the phone? or in the analogic watch? or just looking the food youre cooking. lol
"A solution in search of a problem" perfectly describes this contraption.
It does and will solve a lot of problems
Every technology is, to some extent, a solution in search of a problem
@@nicologiani3426not really lol
@@hurrah1eqe892 Not really; especially not enough to justify dropping $3000 more than competing headsets for it.
@@elphive42 The hardware in it and the purpose it was made (replacing your PC instead being another VR headset for gaming) justifies the 3000 $ more
This is giving me the vibes of early 2010s when new tech was arriving and people used to curiously test it 😂
Just like the early 80's, 90's and the early 00's - new tech has always been arriving in the consumer market.
Your comment is giving me vibes of bot commenting.
NPC ah comment
@@slaphead90 early 2010s was MY first tech era, hence.
Did she put a sausage on it?
Not crying while cutting onions could be worth the price
A pair of ski goggles are about $3400 cheaper.
@@mrloungepantsyes but what else would you use them for besides skiing ⛷️
And a pair of swimming goggles is about $3,490 cheaper 😂
I can get a maid for that price
It's the onion squirting little irritant droplets all over, the pain/crying is from those that land on your eyes which are more sensitive than the rest of the skin and the process cleans them of debris and irrritants ;)
The fact that joanna is funny and has a calm but entertaining actual personality is the main reason i stayed for the whole vid
yes omg I love her ❤
Yeah, she did it great 👍🏻
Great Comment
yep same here, i love her!! she's better than MKBHD imo haha
@@pakkunhatake She’s funny and insightful but "better"… they both keep-it-real and don’t fan-out like some Apple groupies.
I love putting my phone away and enjoying natural life without phone while cooking and on family ski trips.
Natural life lol you going blind
The fact that no one is complaining about lag, resolution, dizzyness etc. is amazing.
a lot of people are complaining about video quality, because let's be honest, camera's just aren't the future for AR. But for VR, the latency, resolution and refresh-rate are almost perfect. People do get dizzy and uncomfortable because of the weight of the headset tho. It's capabilities are also pretty much limited to entertainment, work or stuff like cooking, which is cool, but nobody would spend much money on that, other than rich people.
I'd love to see more attempts at maximizing comfort and clarity, over fancy features. The bigscreen beyond for example is such an incredible headset and would actually be wearable for long periods of time without any strain, and that's coming from a small company. Yes it's vr only, and requires a pc. But nailing the basics is how people stay interested and makes it more useable now, rather than just in the future.
The cameras are awful and make this near worthless for ar
these are also paid advertisements. The real consumer hasn't tried it yet. These "reviews" are boring because they just regurgitate the same thing the last person said and what the companies want them to say.
These reviewers also want apple to keep sending them products to "review".
Yeah it's true. The windows stay locked in so it doesn't cause dizzines
@@anonymous134y I’m pretty sure the customers are gonna get the same experience as the reviewers
Joanna’s humor and insight is always a standout against other reviewers.
Other people review the cut and dry of it, but wearing it while cooking or for 12+ hours? She’s crazy and I love her for it.
dont know how did they got hand on on this thing
wait till you see the hardcore VRChat community... we wear our headset, controllers & trackers for sometimes 12+ hours on the regular. including sleep.

This was a really well done tech review. WSJ, you gotta keep Joanna for every tech video you do, she does a way better job than what the tech reviews at other publications or even UA-cam provide. THIS is the kind of pragmatic review I'm looking for: experience based-not just reading off facts from the box.
Absolutely agree!
My favorite no nonsense review of the Vision Pro I’ve seen yet.
The timers over the stove was my favorite part. No joke.
That is just the beginning. A lot of incoming new Apps actually utilise spatial room like this, mixing AR into reality.
App that distorts reality, literally, like a Dinosaur in your room or snowflakes in summer, are way too many. Luckily it’s only for fun.
But they say you shouldn’t cook with it on so what even is the point
Vision Pro: The best spatial cooking computer
That was the only thing that seemed unique ...
We need more quirky journalism like this!
Showing the most well known company in the worlds new tech accessory and doing the exact things it is designed for is quirky exactly how?
no one is gonna know its not ski goggles lol

Thank you for putting yourself out there and reviewing this for us. Honestly I thought your persona looked just fine.
I have a pair. I absolutely love them. I don’t even use my laptop anymore. Worth in my opinion for my needs and uses every cent. I truly believe this is a glimpse of where computing is going to go once you start using it with AI, AR it is mind blowing.
Okay the cooking aspect was really cool
Yeah but even then I'd eventually just stop using it and use cheaper and more practical methods to do the same thing without having to have any sort of contraption on my head.
You can do the same thing cheaper and more affordable.
Most stoves have a timer built in.
You’re not supposed to. The steam will eventually warp the outer shell of the headset
You can also do this with quest 3, there’s videos of people doing it on UA-cam
The timers feature on my stove is far superior even though the stove itself twice as cheap as the vision pro.
Among the plethora of independent Tech UA-camrs, Joanna is making solid strides with her tech-reviews while being part of a major publication. Shes winning me over to watch her reviews over many other “brochure reading reviewers”. Huge kudos to her and her team for actually skiing or chopping veggies while wearing these.
I mean, what’s wrong with independent tech youtubers?
because you are independent, you tend to be more safe as to not loose access to your apple card to get invite to events and other stuff. when you are reviewer for major media publication house you can be unbaised and not care about being on apple good sides, which which most early reviews from youtubers are very safe and not critical of the product@@galvanprime
@@galvanprimethey aren't independent
@@masonthedivine So mkbhd isn’t independent?

This is the best content I have seen on WSJ over the last decade
The cooking use-case is such a serendipitous moment.

The Persona feature is terrifying.

How?
I guess this will improve, but what I'm afraid of is what if someone uses your persona and uses AI to mimic your voice, that's kind of scary
This is an amazing video! Also, and this is impressive, I’ve never seen anyone with over 90,000 unread emails before. Thank you!!
The intro made me smile. So I'm not the only one who thought the Vision Pro looked like ski / snowboard goggles :P
When she placed the virtual timers over the different cooking pots I actually laughed out loud. This is amazing.
Okay google, set a timer for 8 minutes for the pasta.

No data transfer it’s just power
U noob
you thinking of playing pubg on the vision pro 👀
@@A08J that would be wild
I always hear about and sometimes experience nausea from all other VR heasets. Have you experienced that with Vision Pro? You mentioned it getting heavy and a bit warm, which makes sense, but what about a feeling of sickness?
Best review so far ! Thanks !
I can’t believe Apple released a 1st generation product that lets you set two timers at once. Amazing technology.
One they're quadrillionaires maybe they'll have the funding to set a third.
Innovation!
Причем это единственная полезная функция была за весь ролик 😅 типо этот шлем не нужен вообще никому, он по функциональности не отличается от квест 3 за 500ка
My induction hob let me set 4 timers. and can even turn off the hob once cooking is done. And its faster and dont need 700g heavy brick on my head.
@@val_inv6239 you can play games and watch movies on your hob, and it has spatial sound??? Amazing!
“They did you so dirrrrrty Jo!!!” I swear I said the same exact thing 😂
I think it's like when the first generation of smasung z fold introduced, the bezels and the henge its was the start of foldabels and it was too expensive as it was the first of its kind , I would say that we will have a long journey with apple's vision pro to get more and more better
Thank you. A useful breakdown.
This review is truly outstanding. While the first generation of these headsets has its share of imperfections, I am genuinely enthusiastic about the potential advancements and improvements in the upcoming generations.
Indeed!
You do understand that vr is not a new thing. For example meta quest seems to me way more functional and advanced. No need for power bank as battery, you can use any power bank as extra battery. More apps, more games, better XR ... I mean vision pro looks appleish', i mean that apple design with silver tones, looks expensive but behind other vr headset several generations
@@SuperKREPSINISbut this level of XR is. If any other headset got close to this id but it.
@@alexcarter8082 dunno man, quest 3 has pretty good xr, i mean if you want to cook food in xr, i see how vision pro might suit you, but even then, meta needs one software update and it has that feature...
@@SuperKREPSINISMeta more advanced? 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂 Please…
I’m glad somebody tried to use them in a motion activity because I was wondering how they might enhance a motorcycle driving experience
Finally. I’ve been waiting for the next big tech thing and was hoping apple would do it.
This is the spiritual successor to those old 24 hours with Apple Watch videos you used to make 😭
It is! I wanted to do a mix of POV video and seeing the headset, and this is what we came up with. In a few years we’ll be able to shoot amazing POV video with headsets like this. Mark my words!
@@JoannaStern you can already shoot 'amazing' pov videos with go pro and headband lel 😐
the cooking timer thing was actually amazing lol
I mean, his name is Tim Cook.
$3,500 egg timer!
Quest 3 does it for $500
@@cloudboysmusic5223ski goggles do it for 30
@@isaacdruin you know it can do more right, watch movies in bed? Pin a TV to your bathroom wall, and it's only going to get more features. In my opinion.
Wow, she did a really good job with this video! I have a Quest3 and love the VR experience. But this review made me laugh more than once. Joanna did such an amazing delivery with each pun!
The timers over the pots is so kool!
This is the first review I’ve seen from her and already she’s my favorite. Great delivery. And incredibly insightful.
The “I did ______ for 24 hours” is an old UA-cam trope by now but it’s a brilliant baseline for such a new device in such anew market. Forced her to find ways to do daily tasks and see the potential and downfalls of it when integrating into daily living.
I can’t imagine anyone else doing that. Most reviewers are focusing on its productivity aspect.
Agree. Especially since comfort is such a problem for XR devices. It is interesting that she didn't seem to complain about the comfort
This is the best, non-pretentious first impression of the Vision I’ve seen by far. So creative, well done!
I’m definitely buying this
she got real humor 😅 luv it ❤

Joanna has always been my favorite tech reviewer. Her humor makes the review way better.
The time she dropped an airpod in her food, and just the subtle "Are you serious?", had me dying! Joanna and MKBHD are my two favorite.
I knew it. I absolutely knew Joanna were gonna take the headset skiing 😂 Love her
She should have gone scuba diving though.
Ugh, I’ve become too predictable.
A classic Joanna Stern review! Super good.
Also, timers! Dieter would be happy.
Great video👏🏼 it was so fun to watch
As someone who got a Quest 3 for Christmas, I'm pleased to know that I'm not really missing out that much features vs the Vision Pro
Quest 3 can do basically everything in this video as well as having full blown vr and mr games. You can buy 7 quest 3s for a whole group of people for the same price as this…
Those mini widgets are amazing though in Vision.. don’t have them in meta quest 3.. would love to have that feature someday
Yup. Gaming is where VR is really at.
@@suryanarayan1997 the hardware is there, they just need to create apps for it and I’m sure developers to take inspiration from this
The experience is night and day. Just look at the display resolution, 23M vs 8M. Apple knows how to make a great product and they’re always not the first, but they’re the best.
I like that the thing that she got the most excited about was that she could chop onions without crying. Nicely engineered Apple!
Vision Pro: $3500 Regular ski goggles:$60 Chopping onions under cold water: $0 🤔
@@moongate31i love watching movies on my ski goggles

The timers and persona was the coolest features to me
I'm blown away by the multitasking capabilities of this headset
Bro is everywhere
overrated !
Apple's got YT Bot?
it's exactly the same on a quest 3. Which is way cheaper. And after a couple of hours the weight of these devices is an issue.
@@Cairo5555And after a couple weeks, it’s not again.
Also, good luck doing in the Quest 3 what you can do in these. There’s a monumental difference in visual quality. Unless you like doing things in VHS when there’s 8k 3D Bluray out there.
Hands down the best review of any device that will ever exist, sorry Marques.
His review was just an unboxing, utter useless. Entertaining to watch but it didn’t say anything about the device, this review said 1000 times more
except he didn’t review it yet, lol.
@@TerandiumBecause it was NOT a review. The title of that video is "unboxing". He always does brief unboxings for new products and reviews them later. Usually that is because companies have contracts with UA-camrs and let them show the software only on a specific date.
@@gRapeApe22 bot?? noone talked about price or quest 3 in this comment XD
@@BltchErica ah yeah that makes sense then, I saw the title but unboxing and review are somewhat interchangeable nowadays
Super entertaining and informative video! Thanks!

Joanna is the best in the biz. Great review for everyday people.
i have a major crush on this interviewer now 🤣
Thanks for the entertaining review ☺️🙏
Okay, I absolutely loved that you kept it on for that long. Made this review so unique. The recipe and timers was cool. Still can't believe you skied with them on. Insightful review.
Except this existed since forever
Yeah. I would bet that hob had timers too. Timers exist forever. So buy 3.5K set so you can see virtual timer next to hob with timer is as dumb as it sounds.
@@val_inv6239 guess it's a good thing it does a lot more than that.

@@picxlmedia7856 i must to agree, vision pro is overhyped. I will stick with my meta quest 2
We may have had VR for the last 10 years but apple invented it just now! So that's what counts. (Edited: grammar)
This is more functional VR to add productivity. Meta is essentially just an entertainment consol.

Very cool review. It looks like a great product - just not $3000 better than the Quest 3. At least not for my purposes.
Definitely not $3000 better, especially when you find out it has lower FOV than the Quest 3.
I have the quest 3 and it’s great. I know VR tech is not even close to mastered yet so no reason to overspend on apple’s first attempt
@@dtz1000so the quest can give you 3 laggy browser window, while the Apple Vision Pro can give you way more without any performance problem. With the quest 3, you can read text from you phone when the light conditions are really great, you can read really small things with the Vision Pro. You can use most of the iPhone and iPad apps on the Vision Pro, when you can barely run a few android apps on the quest 3. And the quest 3 is the 4th quest device. How can a 4th generation device have way worst software experience then a first gen device, with a lot of its features currently on beta.
i really like the timers :)
Is it possibble to use pro vision like simple computer for text documents without connecting to monitor
Idk for 3,500 I don’t see the future there. I mean think about it. How long do you think you can have this thing on your face before you start to get a headache or wanna take it off?
It's like when iphone came out in 2008 when Nokia was laughing the head off... Back in 2007：Nokia CEO said about iPhone "It is quite an interesting product but it is lacking a few essential features, such as 3G, which would enable fast data connections," We might look at 5-10 years later where this goggle could be as small as a rayban.
I thought people were dumb for buying $3000 MacBook pros with core 2 quads 10 years ago but hey they did it all the time.
There's a new sucker born everyday and apple knows this.
I can’t imagine wearing this in the summer time
To me, this just underscores what a good deal the Quest 3 is.
Yes, especially when you find out this has a lower FOV than the Quest 3.
meta should be feeling pretty good about their positioning for now.
@@romulus_ Unless they make a $500-700 Apple Vision they should be fine. Plus the OS is more Dev friendly. People forget the meta quest pro existed before.
@@Andre_Jordan I think meta will stay on the lower to middle part of the market for now but wouldn't put it past them to do a flagship device that's still cheaper than the apple offerings in a year or two if the market conditions and adoption of the ecosystem are in the right place.
I'm eager for this future. I've seen Dennou Coil and that anime got me very excited for Augmented Reality.
Experiencing Apple's Vision Pro Headset through Joanna Stern's 24-hour journey was truly eye-opening! Her immersive exploration of this groundbreaking technology provides invaluable insights into its capabilities and limitations. 😍
the best part: cooking computer... multiple timers for boil and saute... i love it...!!! and a ski goggle?? wow... never even thought about it... nice video!!
Just don't let moisture get up into the headset. The fans on the bottom of the lens intake air and exhaust through the top. Sucking in steam will definitely lead to hardware malfunction and possibly fry it.
The best ski goggles ever
Can’t wait to see what the market for AR devices are in 10 years from now. This will definitely breed a lot of competition eventually
welcome to the future i very exited to this in games when we make royal battle i won't stop playing
I've watched every review or early content so far and this is by far the best, most balanced and tons of humour I wasn't' expecting
I have never actually watched one of your videos. But this is one of the best tech reviews I have seen in terms of humour but also fair and genuine. Will definitely subscribe for more!!
This is wild!!!!
Oh my god that's amazing
The dog's reaction at the end 😂
according to Ming-Chi Kuo, the Vision Pro 2 will have the fastest ever chip in a Vision Pro, and the camera will be the best camera ever in a Vision Pro allowing you to chop onions with 100% more efficiency
So how’s the quality watching Disney plus movies? Is it as good as watching it on the smartphone? Is it 4k resolution in the Vision Pro?
Dunno don't watch them
Amazing video!
Favorite early review, much more tangible than any tech UA-camr vid. And really entertaining. Thank you.
