    Well, my business case is pretty specific but, to answer your question directly, it’s not meant as a replacement for either of those things. I use it in conjunction with my laptop and several iPhones. We film everything in Spatial Video so that we have LIDAR/depth info for the project we’re working on. The Vision Pro lets me record and preview the video immediately.

    Outside of that, I use the screen mirroring on my MacBook pretty religiously and I love being able to have my various workspaces all around me. For whatever reason, my mind works better when I can separate things spatially and have certain apps open in one room. I’m a pacer so I like to think about what I’m doing while pacing and looking using the Vision Pro and then, when I’m ready, I sit down at my desk, mirror the display, and finish what I’m working on.

    It’s really cool. It’s definitely the worst version of the product it’s ever going to be so the amount of use I get out of it right now just makes me more excited for what’s to come in the future. As long as I’m getting use out of it now, though, I see no issues with the cost because it’s literally something I can’t do with any other device (and I own all the other VR headsets, including the Quest and Index).
