Ask HN: Are you still using your Vision Pro?

As an aside, and as someone who doesn't own a vision pro (non US pleb): While it is interesting to me if people find utility. I can't help but feel that the narrative on places outside of HN is a strong "no".

But, that is to be expected, the form factor isn't convenient yet. When mobile phones weighed 2KG few people used them on a daily. When it's miniaturized into the form factor of glasses, we'll all be daily users. That seems to me more like a question of when, not if.

A lot of the utility, even in this thread, seems to be solutions for problems that don't actually exist. I think it's cool technology, but nothing mentioned in this thread makes me want to get one.

Yep, very skeptical of any claims of "increased productivity" over a regular screen.

Outside of HN, VR is a hard sell. Outside of VR games, it is an almost impossible sell, and Apple is irrelevant when it comes to gaming.

At $3500, in this economy, it's a no-go for all but the most die-hard of Apple fans.
