Apple’s Vision Pro Headset Shows the Future of Computing Is Bulky and Weird

Wired's reviewer spent about 30 minutes with Apple's Vision Pro mixed-reality headset and finds the technology impressive but is not sold on its bulky design. The $3,500 device runs visionOS, operates without a paired device, and is controlled by eye gaze and finger taps, with preorders starting January 19 and sales beginning February 2. The reviewer says the headset was comfortable after adjusting the headband, but the external battery pack, which lasts about two hours, is an inelegant solution. The reviewer hopes the technology will eventually shrink into normal-looking glasses.
