I don't get it.
The UI of the new Apple Vision Pro matches the UI of an old Playstation handheld that didn't sell well. They might have just started selling well with a new brand name on them....
It’s so sad. The Vita is an AMAZING console (when hacked)
Just like the PSP...
but vita is basically a superset of psp (you can even make it boot into the original psp menu), and can be bought for roughly the same price, so why bother with the og psp?
The touch buttons on the back bring it down a lot for me. But I do play mine still.
what is there not to understand here?
The UI on the left isn't labeled, so it's hard to tell what any joke could be if you don't know what it is
how is that not instantly recognisable??????? its apple vision pro. you must be seriously out of the loop
Sorry I don't instantly recognize the UI from a 3500 dollar device made by a company I couldn't give less of a shit about if I tried.
it was memed upon everywhere
I'm fairly sure this is the first time I'm seeing a pic of the UI, ever.
Then you are insanely out of touch
You saying that seems ironic to me
How old are you?
Tbh I've heard about the Vision Pro because I follow tech YouTubers and read a few articles, but I haven't heard a single person who wasn't part of the tech community on the Internet (or doing tiktoks about the vision pro) talk about it. Like, I'm certain that if I started talking about the Vision Pro with friends, family and colleagues, more than 90% of them would just say "WTF is a vision pro?" Ordinary people care as much about the vision pro as they cared about, for example, that 1000$ monitor stand Apple sold, which is to say they didn't.
non tech people - there's your problem. they aren't going to understand anything either than "oh I have an apple and he has a samsung phone"
You live in an interesting bubble where Apple VR googles UI is something you are expected to know
The vision pro has been out for less than 2 months and every review pretty much only shows the outside and never the main menu.
The only ones "in the loop" of this level of detail of the vision pro would be only the most die hard Apple fans.
Here is the review from The Verge. None of the images show that menu screen. And it's not alone. Here is a review from Are Technica, which is a well known pro-Apple site (it's often nicknamed Apple Technica), and even they never show that image.
Not sure where you think not recognizing the vision pro menu would make most people "out of the loop".
their own demo videos show a lot, and then also not sure which reviews you are watching
Who fucking watches Apple demo videos?
yo. i manage apple devices as part of my job, so i have to stay on the up-and-up of new stuff they make in case the company ever asks for them. sometimes that means 3hrs of day are spent watching apple demo videos (no complaints here, though. that's an easy 3 hours!)
