Could you elaborate a bit more about how it makes you more productive? (and maybe also elaborate on what your field of work is)
Hopefully my answer to your other comment makes sense. If not, let me know! (I do programming, trading, consulting). EDIT: Thought of one more thing... Immersive environments also help. Blocking out what's around me and escaping to, say, the top of a volcano or Mount Hood or Yosemite, increases my focus, esp. for deep work
Yes, almost every day. I spend approximately 60-70% of my time working with the headset on, connected to my MacBook. It’s actually better for me than my physical display because of the Zeiss inserts - I usually don’t wear glasses, so due to inserts, the desktop is subjectively crisper than the monitor :) I really can’t wait for visionOS 2 improvements in the virtual display feature. Most of the media content I consum…

With F1 TV does that mean you can just place different streams and screens anywhere? That does sound quite neat in principle. Hell if you had a feed for car positions one could make a virtual model of the track and watch it top down.

I bought it shortly after release, but returned it a month later: * The sizing options are really confusing, and my measured fit (as determined by the app over a dozen runs) felt somewhat loose. Apple Store staff could not tell me what the numbers meant and could only size me through the app. * There's not a lot of VR content available right now — just a few short (admittedly impressive) clips. * I feel isolated when…
Yes, almost every day. I travel regularly and I love having a big, crisp, private display every where I am: Hotel, plane, train. Makes me so much more productive. Consuming content is great of course but the AVP has changed my content creation: I take way more panoramas and now spatial photos (Spatialify on iOS works well). I also bought an Insta X4 360 camera which, while a far cry from Apple's immersive content in…
One early part of your post is about being productive. Much of the rest is about creating nostalgia and reliving a past trip through these. Is there a paradox, or contradiction, in these themes?

Are you a high school English teacher?

I mean, is it so wild though? It's not like they're going to face any actual repercussions for this behavior.
I was joking. They don’t advertise it that way at all. It’s hard to believe the guy I was replying to even bought a Vision Pro in the first place if he’s the kind of guy to say “Apple Police.”
Until it gets multiple account support, it’s not even an option. I could buy one, but I’m not going to buy three. Nor can I use it for work, for the same reason.
No, I found it uncomfortable for extended periods of wear - to the point where I would rather just use a normal display on my Mac etc. I look forward to the second-generation with comfort, weight, & FOV improvements (hopefully!). It also still hasn't found the "killer apps" just yet, but it's clear Apple is still heavily invested into this considering there's nearly 30 sessions on VisionOS at WWDC this week.
Why don't you sell/return it then?

The iPad not allowing multiple users seems like leaving money on the table for cheap, decent-battery family computer, even if they're not really into Apple.
