Back when I pre-ordered the Vision Pro, people looked at me like I was crazy.
"$3,500 for a face computer? No way."
But something deeper nudged me.
This wasn’t just Apple Fan Girl behavior (maybe a little).
This wasn’t a headset.
This was the iPod before the iPhone.
The wheel before the car.
A door dressed up as a device.
Everyone was seeing gadget.
I was feeling future.
Since day one, I knew the vision Pro wasn't just a device - it's the Doorway.
And here’s what I see most people still missing:
Vision Pro isn’t just tech.
It’s possibility.
It’s the on-ramp to a post-screen world.
This is the first time I’ve seen tech feel like it’s in harmony with the human experience—calm, immersive, clean, and intuitive.
It brings things to us in new ways—things that seem simple, like meditation or our environment, but feel radically different inside this space.
Honestly, I don’t even meditate. But I tried it on the Vision Pro just to see what it was like—because why not?
Now it’s the best five minutes of my day.
Immersive calm. Gentle focus. Beautiful design.
We didn’t just need more mindfulness—
We needed a better interface for it.
Then there are the environments:
A moon. A beach. A galaxy.
Because… why not make tech seamless, joyful, and fun?
That’s what Apple does—bridges possibility and creates space for joy to matter.
So why now?
It’s been over a year since launch.
Still, people get it wrong—or dismiss it too soon.
They see the hardware and miss the invitation.
Vision Pro is not the product.
It’s the threshold.
And thresholds are not for clinging to—they’re for stepping through.
This isn’t about what it is.
It’s about what it’s teaching us:
- To think spatially
- To design with presence
- To let technology flow with us, not just around us
This is not the end state.
It’s the initiation—
The gateway to an era where screens disappear and what remains is immersion, intention, and experience-first design.
But let’s be clear: Apple isn’t just building hardware.
In a recent post, I reflected on Apple’s measured and thoughtful design—how their deliberate pace is often mistaken for slowness.
The Vision Pro is a perfect example.
This is not a product racing for virality.
It’s priming the collective for what’s next.
It’s building habits for the future.
It’s the same playbook:
- First the iPod
- Then the iPhone
- Now Vision Pro
Every step redefined what’s possible.
Every step shifted expectation.
Every step moved the interface closer.
And this one?
This one blends with us.
It brings the digital into the body, the space, the moment.
This is tech that’s learning to breathe with us.
Final Thought...
Or in the words of Apple: One More Thing...
The Vision Pro is misunderstood not because it's flawed—
But because it’s early.
It’s not where we land.
It’s where we learn to walk again.
Maybe one day it’ll be a lens. Or something neural. Or nothing at all.
But when that future arrives, you’ll know you were there for the first step.
This isn’t a headset.
It’s a threshold.
And for those of us who see it—it’s already shaping what’s next.
It’s not just tech. It’s possibility. It’s presence. It’s joy. It’s expansive.
And when I think about joy being quantum, the Vision Pro is the power source.
