No new features. Thanks. My AVP continues to collect dust.

I don't know why people who say this didn't return it in the return window. I paid $3500, I use it every single day

Why does it feel like this product is being back burnered? Just a guess, but if Apple could go back in time they would have possibly spent the time and money on AI/SIRI vs Apple Vision. That could have come later, when SIRI and AI was good for voice stuff.

Lol. I highly doubt that. The new Miami store has a whole room dedicated to the AVP. AVP is the future. It will only get smaller, cheaper and better as new revisions are made.

Plus, visionOS 3 is out to developers in a few months. They’re probably packing all the goodies in it to make it seem like a huge release.

That is 100% your fault. I used it daily. It is amazing for work with my Mac - best purchase EVER working on the sofa with laptop and a gigantic cinema-like screen.

Or watching movies.
