Apple Vision Pro Returns Surge as Refund Deadline Approaches

High price and early adoption challenges overshadow advanced mixed-reality features, prompting a reevaluation among users.

Apple Vision Pro returns spike as the 14-day refund window closes, highlighting discomfort, narrow field of view, and software limitations.
The headset's high price and early adopter status contribute to buyer's remorse, despite its advanced features and potential for productivity and entertainment.
Comfort issues, such as weight and the default band's poor weight distribution, are primary complaints among users.
The Vision Pro's software ecosystem is criticized for lacking key apps and offering many that are simply ported from iPadOS.
Despite these challenges, the Vision Pro is seen as a significant step in mixed reality, with expectations for future improvements.
