š Tom's Take
Unfiltered POV from the editor-in-chief.
Apple Vision Pro should have launched as Apple TV Vision.
The hardware is incredible, but the magic isnāt in multitasking; itās in entertainment. I was reminded of this during DAZNās XR World Cup experience, which features 3D tabletop matches, 180-degree video feeds, and interactive replays for key moments. Similar experiences can be found in the PGA and NBA apps. Watching sports on a big screen is one thing, but watching it unfold as a real-time simulation in front of you, from multiple perspectives, is a game-changer.
Pair that with Appleās massive investment in Apple TV+ content for Vision Pro, including immersive originals featuring Alicia Keys, Bono, and more, and it becomes clear that Vision Pro is a premium media device in disguise.
While I love the ambition behind a true spatial computer, I canāt help but wonder if weād see more Vision Pros in peopleās homes if Apple had positioned it as a next-gen Apple TV. A focus on immersive sports, music, and entertainment could have simplified the value prop, allowed for lower specs (and a lower price), and reached a broader market. Plus, duo or family bundles could have made it a shared, social experience that would have eliminated the need for a traditional screen completely.
Apple may not have needed to make a spatial computer right from the start. It needed to disrupt TV to win the living room before conquering every use case.
