Apple Vision Pro hits Hong Kong and China: a Gen Z gamer and a Gen Y gadget geek’s takes
- Casual gamer Joanne Yau and gadget geek Ben Sin outline the pros and cons of the innovative but costly device as it goes on sale in Asia
The Apple Vision Pro has recently gone on sale in a number of countries outside the US, including China (both on the mainland and in Hong Kong), Japan and Singapore in Asia. We asked a Gen Z casual gamer and an older gadget geek to give us their take on the groundbreaking headset.
The Gen Z casual gamer
Navigating through the UI with my eyes and fingers quickly became an immersive, intuitive and seamless experience.
Swiping through the headset’s photo album, which supports spatial audio and videos, was like watching a film with 3D glasses, except I felt I was actually in the film itself and reliving life’s most intimate moments.
Productivity-wise, I could easily set up multiple interfaces and multitask across several windows. One drawback was that, while the headset supports typing with voice, there were still some inaccuracies – hopefully Apple will fix this in the 2024 autumn upgrade.
