    Apple really need to get those immersive cameras in the Apple Fitness+ studio. Yoga classes with being able to see the trainers would be great. Also having Zwift on the there would be great for cyclists. The hardware is the limiting factor at the moment.

    Very cool! Was wondering if the vision pro would be any good with various fitness products.

    You asked the questions I’ve been searching for in respect to this device and fitness. I envisioned it to extend Zwift to allow for a panoramic view of a real world course. Because of its size, weight distribution and price. I couldn’t make sense of it outside of indoor cycling. But it could really make indoor cycling a whole lot more exciting in the winter months.

    Did you ever actually workout hard enough to get sweaty? I cannot imagine doing anything above Z2 on my trainer with these on.

    I wonder if they could use the Apple Watch as a haptic feed back device for the vision pro

    Any actual workout would probably produce enough sweat to start messing up the device (or just make it gross).
    The device battery also has this note:
    *Liquid exposure.* Apple Vision Pro and its battery are not designed to be water resistant. Keep your device and battery away from sources of liquid, such as drinks, oils, lotions, sinks, bathtubs, shower stalls, etc. Protect your device and battery from dampness, humidity, or wet weather, such as rain, snow, and fog.

    They need their own Supernatural or at least an AR version of Fitness+. And for Supernatural-type stuff they need hand controllers.

    #1 reason for me is it’s heavy. I am still trying to use it as a media consumption device and that’s tough because the thing is super heavy. Very cool, but very heavy. So impressive that you can even attempt to exercise in it. Is it not heavy for you?

    • @ConnectTheWatts
      @ConnectTheWatts  3 місяці тому

      ya, I haven't felt any heaviness or discomfort and have been wearing it 6-8 hours a day since its release. I think its a matter of finding a good fit, whether its through different adjustments with the dual loop band (I had to Lower the back strap and loosen the top strap to really find the sweet spot) or possibly waiting for 3rd party straps which will help solve the weight distribution even better.

    Would you say that the Apple Vision Pro is better suited to fitness apps than the M3?

    • @ConnectTheWatts
      @ConnectTheWatts  3 місяці тому +1

      much better due to no lens fog, and much better system of swapping face pads, and of course much better Pass Through, and integration with Apps in the Apple Store like Vitruvian, Aviron, FightCamp, etc.. for all the connected fitness devices.

      @@ConnectTheWatts thanks for the response. Food for thought. I am an apple fan (phone latptop etc) just not the vision pro just yet. I do like VR and have a quest 3, i get loads of use out of it. I've yet to see a big enough benefit to make the step. And that is not taking into consideration the price. One thing i do like is the better passthrough. If the M3 had as good or almost as good passthrough as the apple vision pro then i wouldn't even show the slightest of interest. It will be interesting to see how the VP evolves. Maybe ill make the jump when they have more apps onboard.

    • @ConnectTheWatts
      @ConnectTheWatts  3 місяці тому

      I definitely think it's smart to wait for them to iron out some of the bugs, and allow developers to make more apps for it. But for me, I tried working with Meta Quest 3, and while usable, it was a signifiant downgrade to my regular workflow. Vision Pro feels like a huge upgrade... and has almost eliminated all of my usage of external monitors, iPad, and even the iPhone for the most part (at least when I'm at home).

    • @TraderJono
      @TraderJono 3 місяці тому

      ooo i like the idea of being able to eliminate my phone from the equation thats a very good point. I wouldn't want to replace my current setup completely with my MQ3 but if something could that is a very interesting prospect. I am a trader so i leave 3 screens up on the MQ3 with different charts to what i have on my laptop. So when I need a quick snapshot of the markets i pop the headset on and see an overview of the market flow. I just so wish the passthrough was just a tiny bit better on the MQ3 i wouldnt have to take it off again to execute my trades! Other than that i play the odd game and watch movies on itif the family is out 😅@@ConnectTheWatts

    • @TraderJono
      @TraderJono 3 місяці тому

      I forgot to mention i use zeiss lens anti fog wipes. They help so much with the MQ3 fogging issue. It literally makes it go away. I probably use one every other day maybe every 3 days. Very interesting you mentioned that using the vision pro eliminates the usage of your iphone i really like that idea and i never looked at it that way. I use either multiple browsers mixed with pass through on the MQ3 or if i fancy something different i use meta workrooms. So far the experience has been great. I can see how VR will one day be a way alot of people will do work. No need for anything else but a laptop. One thing i did do straight away was upgrade the headstrap on the MQ3 which transformed how long i could wear it for lol. I am considering upgrading again to the new BOBO VR S3 Pro it looks really good @@ConnectTheWatts

      I mean, it’s replacing my two external monitors I use for video editing ($1k each) and my iPad Pro ($1k) so once I sell those, the wallet isn’t looking so bad.

    • @Somtric
      @Somtric 3 місяці тому +1

      I don't get you. Why would you sit with that overly expensive crap on your head, rather than just working normally. It really doesn't even do anything the Quest 3 can't do, it's just a mediocre MR headset with the apple branding.
      To each their own though.@@ConnectTheWatts

    This channel seems like it has had good content in the past. This is different. Abandoning the world around you for a fake reality, feels like one of the most unhealthy things someone could ever do for both their mind, and their body. Encouraging a path to rejecting one's reality around them, however well-intentioned, is deeply unhealthy. This doesn't at all feel like something that should be promoted
