I Own ZERO Apple Products. The Vision Pro Still Got Me.
I was WRONG about the Apple Vision Pro. I’m an Android user with zero Apple products, no iPhone, no Mac, nothing, and after reviewing 14 VR, AR, and MR headsets, the Apple Vision Pro M5 still blew my mind. In this Apple Vision Pro first impressions review, I break down the insane passthrough (yes, it beats the Meta Quest 3 and everything else I own), the razor-sharp micro-OLED displays running up to 120Hz, the eye tracking and pinch controls, the surprisingly comfortable Dual Knit Band, and why Apple’s “spatial computing" marketing actually makes sense now. I also get into the stuff nobody hypes: the brutal Apple accessory tax, and my failed attempt at PCVR streaming with ALVR, plus why PSVR2 controller support might be a bigger deal than people think. Whether you’re a Quest 3 owner, a PCVR enthusiast, or just wondering if the Vision Pro is worth it in 2026, this is the honest no-fanboy take from a guy who tried really hard to ignore this headset. Full in-depth review coming soon.
