Apple’s Vision Pro with M5 brings noticeable upgrades over the first model, including faster performance, better battery life, and a redesigned Dual Knit Band that improves comfort. Users can now enjoy immersive 3D photos, huge movie screens, and multi-window productivity more smoothly. Yet, despite these improvements, some feel the headset hasn’t fully solved the isolation that comes with using VR.
Even with the new M5 chip and comfort-focused updates, using Vision Pro requires putting a headset over your eyes and stepping away from the real world. Many users find this isolating compared to casually watching a movie on an iPhone or working directly on a Mac. The novelty is exciting, but returning to everyday life after using the headset can feel disconnected.
At $3,499, the Vision Pro with M5 is undeniably premium. The added comfort and improved processing are welcome, but the high cost and solitary experience may deter many potential buyers. For enthusiasts and early adopters, it’s a thrill, but for casual users, it may remain a device “you can live without.”
