#2I am not aware of the VR space, but reading this article seems like this is truly a giant leap from all existing hardwares?
Edit: Maybe I commented too early.

No. Its the Airpods Max of VR headsets.

#4Watching the announcement video, Apple is claiming that the rendering is sharp enough to display text sharply, implying that Vision Pro will be useful for productivity applications (using Excel or chat in VR without any monitors).
Here's to hoping that they'll allow us to replace our monitors with unlimited arbitrarily sized VR displays.
EDIT: Whoa, at a price of $3500, I guess they've got the price room to embed all kinds of crazy optics; that's a pretty eye-watering price.

#6"For weight purposes, an external battery will sit in your pocket and connect to the Vision Pro through a cable."
Interesting choice... can't say I am a fan
"The headset's visionOS operating system can be controlled in a "fully 3D interface" without a handheld controller. It solely uses your eyes, hands, and voice as an interface, and the unit lets you "control the system simply by looking."
An interesting decision. Hand and finger tracking has been getting really good, but for lots of applications having controllers is still helpful.
Overall, seems they are targeting AR way harder than VR, which is probably smart.

It's not a VR headset, it's closer to Hololens
Its a VR headset with external cameras, so that it can be used primarily for AR.
But with the headset on, you are definitely looking at a screen. not looking through the headset.

SimulaVR's been trying to do this for some time.

#9> Apple CEO Bob Iger came out to demonstrate a number of customized Vision Pro experiences, from Disney+ support to ESPN sports broadcasts with a wide array of stats filling your room to a virtual Mickey Mouse that walks around your space.
I know that these articles are written quickly, but for an article about Apple's announcement it's kind of embarassing for this error to slip through.
