Why would the latency be lower on the AVP?
Because it's not remote, if you are streaming from your Mac, it's right there, at 2m at most. It's much different than remote connecting from an iPad 100 km away.

Why would an iPad be forced to be 100km away?

If you wear Vision Pro to watch movies, can the field of view achieve a cinema-like effect. Or can we have a movie theater viewing experience on Vision Pro?
I don't know the exact FOV specs but it's definitely wide enough to achieve the average movie theater experience, even an IMAX-like experience.

I’m still curious how things will look in low light. All the demos were in an optimally lit room, but what about when you dim the lights and the camera has trouble picking up the room?
There are infra-red illuminators.

I see the productivity use case more useful than the entertainment ones, and without the social stigma of hanging around on your sofa weirding out spouse/kids. However most of the previews I read do point to some amount of weight/comfort ergonomics that I think play against the productivity use case. Basically my work compute needs to be ergonomic enough to use for 8-12 hours/day. I have a hard time believing we can…
Being able to watch movies in bed and let your spouse sleep without a lot of light is definitely a use case.

iOS shines when you create something, for while someone has already created software to create. Desktop shines when you create something novel. It's as simple as that -- there are tons of things people have created really polished iOS "happy path" software to create on, but they're not general purpose creators. Specifically because anything general purpose threatens Apple's App Store toll gate, and thus cannot be all…
What are the creative apps on Android that Apple is not allowing to exist on iOS?
If apple would just get over themselves and allow sideloading (or, gosh, a terminal!), it would go a long way to improving iOS usability for creatives.

Hi Ladberg, When you worked with Vision Pro, did it have a device native terminal and/or a device native ssh client? What I mean by that is a terminal running under VisionOS, as opposed to getting terminal access by first connecting to a remote computer.
Maybe for Apple development, but given that it’s positioned as an iOS-type device, the public will never get a native terminal on this thing. It would be unprecedented.

I very much hope they allow sandboxed terminal access (like WSL on windows) but I expect they won't.
