Apple supporters are beginning to send back their Vision Pros
Owners of the $3,500 Apple Vision Pro headphones have announced in recent days that they are returning them. You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return any Apple product.
One of the most common excuses for returns is discomfort. Some claim the headset causes motion sickness and gives them headaches. Another concern has been the device’s weight and the fact that much of it is front-loaded. At least one other individual mentioned that their experience with redness was comparable.
This is not unexpected. Since each human body is different, manufacturing wearables on a large scale for the general market presents challenges. Comfort must always be given up, and this has a disproportionately negative impact on people.
When it comes to smartwatches, it frequently comes down to how big and heavy the case is in relation to your wrist. It’s the size of your finger with stylish rings. Unfortunately, a lot of people experience problems with finger swelling or are in between sizes. A short nose bridge on smart glasses or headsets can cause the item to slide off your face or not block out enough light.
It’s not just the gear, though. The Vision Pro is often criticized for not providing adequate productivity for the money. On Threads, a user reported that while staring at Figma screens made them lightheaded, the device wasn’t useful for their job. Another programmer claimed to have headaches from attention problems and that the «coding experience failed to convince [him]» in a post on the social networking platform X.
