Farsace is one of my favorite tech YouTubers, and I appreciated her balanced, thoughtful take on Apple Vision Pro in her latest video.

Using an M5 Vision Pro, Farsace replaced her desktop monitor, laptop, and TV with Apple Vision Pro.

How did it go?

There were pros and cons. Farsace points out the Vision Pro’s strengths as a replacement for her small laptop screen, and for offering an excellent TV experience. But it also came with drawbacks of feeling isolated in a headset and other practical issues.

I’ve found myself similarly torn by the advantages and disadvantages of Vision Pro.

From a screen and technology perspective, it’s hard to beat Apple Vision Pro. But is that improved screen experience worth messing up your hair, making you feel isolated, and degrading your coffee drinking? It’s all a matter of trade-offs.
