Guess I will go back to using the old Optigrab I have had in the drawer since 1979. I sent a letter to Steve Martin abut compensation, but never heard back.

So other users and Apple warn not to use the devise more than an hour or unpleasant side effects will happen, but users who use it for more than an hour complain that they are suffering unpleasant side effects?

Those whining users may have a lot of money, but they ain’t so bright.

The VR headset that I purchased, the Meta Quest 2 is currently selling for $199. In our state it costs over 50% less than the sales tax on the Apple Vision Pro. Despite being bulkier than the Apple device it hasn’t given me any black eyes, but depending on what it is being used for it can cause a bit of nausea. It is difficult to wear glasses and put it on, but the way that the optics work I do not need to wear my glasses with them.

For the price it does provide some very unique experiences. It has 1832 x 1920 Resolution Per Eye. with 60, 72, 90 Hz Refresh Rate. The Apple has 3,391 x 3,391 Resolution Per Eye with the same refresh rates. I do not sense much if any pixelation while wearing them depending on what they are being used for.

I use it mostly for flight simulators. The aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and X-plane 11 and 12 have extremely realistic interiors and when you are wearing the headset it looks and feels a lot like you are actually flying an airplane. You can look out the windows and easily keep track of the position of the airports to help with flying a proper pattern. Neither of these flight simulators are currently compatible with the Apple Vision Pro that I know of.

Emily Olman got her $3,500 device in February.

Didn’t take long to reel that big fish in.

it gave her two black eyes after she wore it for the first time for about an hour

She attempted to document this claim with a photo. I didn’t see any discoloration — just ordinary crow’s feet and bags under her eyes.
