After endless waiting, I finally received my Vision Pro. It had survived the journey across the world unscathed, and the first few hours even brought the hoped-for &#8216;wow&#8217; effect. But already on the second day, upon closer inspection, problems started for me. It&#8217;s incredibly annoying that I must look at what I want to click, often leading to misclicks. This, and the strange keyboard, could be overlooked, but I encountered a problem, and precisely in the use case that was most important to me: watching videos! With ambient light on, watching videos is comfortable. However, in a darker environment, bright parts of videos become so overpowering that it&#8217;s bothersome and cause fatigue and nausea after not even an hour. I don&#8217;t know what to call this problem, but for me, it&#8217;s a dealbreaker. Additionally, the device is really heavy and not comfortable to wear for extended periods, maybe a third-party strap fixes this. Apart from that, it&#8217;s fantastic technology and pretty much delivers on every promise Apple made. Sure, the AR video feed suffers from a lot of digital chroma noise, and I can only use it with the lights on, but none of the other issues I saw in reviews bother me. Well, I hope they&#8217;ll fix some of the worst quirks in updates, but my initial conclusion is rather mixed; I love the device, but I can&#8217;t use it for long, and it&#8217;s unsuitable for working with videos in its current state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe I should have ordered prescription lenses&#8230; but my eyesight is perfectly fine. No idea what&#8217;s going on, we will see if updates change anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"249\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=249%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=249%2C300&amp;ssl=1 249w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=500%2C602&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=20%2C24&amp;ssl=1 20w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=30%2C36&amp;ssl=1 30w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?resize=40%2C48&amp;ssl=1 40w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/vsp4.jpg?w=566&amp;ssl=1 566w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 249px) 100vw, 249px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe this part is too thick for my face, I ordered size S. I&#8217;m not entirely sure, but I tried it without it and everything looked so much better, the brightness issue was gone, and the fox looked more natural, it was too narrow before in my opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>From contemptuously looking salesmen to a mobile flash system<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><em>Posted on<\/em> <strong>March 15th, 2024<\/strong> <em>by<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/index.php\/its-me\/\" title=\"It\u2019s me\">\u00c9dgar<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Yesterday, we made a stop at a camera store during our layover to buy a small and old flash unit for a video we were about to shootwhich , means: for a very specific purpose! At first, they didn&#8217;t want to sell it to me and offered us much more expensive but useless options, and only when I insisted, it was sold to me with a very contemptuous glance, it was hilarious. I expected the guy to start yelling at us, cause we didn&#8217;t buy the 500\u20ac option, which would have been worthless to us. That was amusing, and you&#8217;ll see why pretty soon in the YouTube shorts. It\u2018s gonna be more fun than our shopping trip for sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Server crashes &amp; weird customer service<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Posted on <\/em><strong>March 9th, 2024<\/strong> <em>by<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/mostlyawesome.de\/cms\/index.php\/its-me\/\" title=\"It\u2019s me\">\u00c9dgar<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Well, it happened &#8211; the server I rented to host my portfolio and the services neededed went up in flames.
