I could never get past how isolating a Vision Pro is. Awesome tech though. At least with the colors they'll make it more stylish to be alone watching a movie without friends or family?
This bizarre notion of Vision Pro being "isolating" is not a factor. We use our iPads, MacBooks and iPhones alone the vast majority of the time. Vision Pro is simply an iPad/MacBook Studio Display in a wearable form factor. In a few generations the price will come down to allow for shared spatial movie watching but that's not even 1% of what Vision Pro is capable of.
Apple Vision Pro doesn't have enough of a market to justify the added manufacturing costs that come with multiple colorways. It seems to me that Apple Vision Pro 2 will just require a new drop in logic board that will likely be designed to minimize changes to the manufacturing line. They might change the color, but I highly doubt there will be options.
