Apple Vision Pro for Movies & TV | Better Than a Real Home Theater?

День тому

The Apple Vision Pro is said to have among the best displays you can buy, but can it really compete with your TV or projector and screen? I tried it out and have the answer, along with news on one feature nobody is talking about.

Hey everyone! Some of the best, most constructive comments I’ve seen on one of our videos in some time. Thank you! And keep ‘em coming!

@PatrickAdia 2 місяці тому

Hey Caleb, I noticed you haven't explored the Apple TV+ app for the theater experience. This is the best movie experience on Apple Vision Pro. Simply start a movie in the Apple TV+ app and locate the environment icon ⛰ at the top left corner. Select it, and you'll find three options: your current environment in light or dark, and a Cinema option. The first two options will expand your screen beyond what you could manually achieve and immerse it in the environment, giving you a sense of grandeur. As for the cinema environment, you can select your preferred seating position-front row, middle row, back row, floor, or balcony. To do so, just navigate to the media player bar. Give it a try for an enhanced movie-watching experience!

@benoitferland 2 місяці тому

I agree! Very insightful and interesting point of view with a great balance of technical information and personal experience. Keep up the good work Caleb!

@neubauerjoseph Місяць тому

I doubt it could beat a Sony QD-OLED tv but that things cost like $4,000… so far Apple hasn’t sold me because I much rather spend that money on a high end tv or Alienware laptop . For that money I could get the laptop, QDOLED monitor and mouse and keyboard . Also a few basic questions most reviewers aren’t asking 1. Who do they expect to buy this ? 2. Who do they expect to pay the price ? 3. Is this a pro or customer market ? Because I get the feeling that this is a workstation device that will do with a high end MacBook Pro that for 3d modeling or something similar.

@phillipschuman4307 Місяць тому

@@PatrickAdia Good points, thank you. One reviewer took his AVP into a movie theater. From a middle row position, the AVP large screen image more than covered the theater screen, which he showed by switching to pass through twice. Caleb didn't perceive it as big, but he is an experienced AV professional. He couldn't feel the illusion, even though most would. But in Cinema option, the basic illusion is enhanced by the familiar setting in photo-realist... 3d. I bet Caleb would immerse into the illusion then. Who would want a cinema size screen? People who have projectors or want 100+ inch tvs, for sure. Maybe anyone who experienced it too.

@TheGc13psj 2 місяці тому

When you talk about the screen feeling like it was too close, despite the space looking 3D, you're describing 'Vergence-Accommodation Conflict'. The focus point int he headset is fixed, despite the convergance giving the image 3d structure. In real life, focus and convergance are tied together. If VR, they're forcibly seperated, which accounts for a LOT of people's discomfort in them. and makes the content feel like it's at a fixed distance, despite looking 3D. I've seen a lot of VR reviewers talk about this issue but they put a name to it. I wish reviewers would talk about the need for verifocal lenses (lenses which allow focus and convergence to match) more so consumers could put a name to the phennomenon they experiance, so headset makers cna make it more of a priority. This one thing still puts a lot of people off playing VR fromt he strain and nausia.

@khele2k Місяць тому

This is interesting. I haven't noticed this at all, but I really don't use the AVP for anything other than a screen like a TV or monitor. I have had all the Quests and you do have to remind yourself you're in a game and you're not supposed to be moving, which I think helps your mind adjust. I've felt the nausea previously but now I don't really get it at all. One thing that helped me adjust was to just stop if you get nauseous, don't fight through it.

@aaronrobbins1458 Місяць тому

@@weplayvrgames If you watched the video you'll see that he says the video quality is comparable, if not better in some ways to to the TVs you are talking about, plus, as he mentioned, 3D is as good as it gets, and there are reasons, even if you can't think of any, why a person would want home theater quality video and sound, without wanting others to hear it, or without the ability to have a 100 inch screen. I'm not going to get one, but the future isn't always clear and there may come a day where I don't have the space for a full theater and these might be not only better, but also cost comparible. So, not for me, but also not a rip off to some people

and a lot of people now are doing "van life" or sharing a house with a ton of people because living has gotten so expensive. While it is expensive, if you really want a great movie experience with extremely limited space, this could be one of the very best options, and it is truly much cheaper than building a real home theater...which would be a giant waste if only one person wants that experience.

@CodyEngel 2 місяці тому

Spot on review. I watched Mad Max Fury Road on the Vision Pro this week and aside from technical glitches brought on from laying in bed, it was an amazing experience. The 3D is top notch and I don't even have the prescription inserts yet (bought in in-store on Monday, inserts are out for delivery today which is Thursday). It's a really neat experience and while Meta has been building these headsets for a while, I think Apple figured out what problem it's trying to solve and they are doing a great job at solving it.

"Small screen close to my face", it's due to focal length. It pretends to have a large screen far away, but when your eyes try to focus far away, it doesn't quite work.

Apple TV + has currently 3 TV shows (1 episode each so far) with immersive experiences (like this woman walking on the line in Norway) and some "animal planet" kind of things. I liked my AVP from the beginning.... but after watching these , made specially with some next level equipment by Apple.....that is the future of television ..and I want it NOW !!! Mind blowing.

Nailed it. I have an A95K (not L) and find myself reaching for the AVP when I’m going to watch a movie alone. It’s an incredible device (and it’s a good comparison, since my TV and the AVP cost a near identical amount.) AirPods Pro sound better with this device than they have any right to, but I have been meaning to experiment with sending audio to my ATMOS home theater, not sure if I’ll be able to get it to work. This is a fantastic device for watching movies. Avatar in D+ is indescribable. Looks better than I remember in the theater. This device has weaknesses, and isn’t very good for gaming… but I am so happy I own it. I was skeptical at the price, it now that I’ve owned it for a month I would pay $5k instead of $3500. It’s that good.

@SteelersHomer 2 місяці тому

You can send audio to Vision Pro through Bluetooth to speakers/surround soundsystem, but it's hidden. On Vision Pro go to Settings > Accessibility > Hearing Devices and pair your speaker or speaker system there. Reportedly works fairly well but it will warn you that the implementation is not 'optimized for Vision Pro'.

Thanks for this comprehensive review, Caleb. I have a question about one part of the experience you only barely touched on: the bass. Is it safe to assume that the Apple Vision Pro (even with the Pro buds) cannot replicate the experience (pressure, hit-you-in-the-chest feeling,) of a surround system with top-of-the-line subwoofers? Or did the Vison Pro somehow replicate that experience? I just can't imagine tech like this giving me the same experience as Hsu or SVS or JTR or Perlisten subwoofers can.

Lightstorm and Dreamworks are involved. I know they have been talking about it for a while but it sounds like it's finally happening. The TV industry needs another catalyst to get everyone to upgrade. Looks like they finally found one. Fantastic overview of the AVP!

@Pocketkid2 2 місяці тому

Is TrueCut motion what James Cameron used for Avatar The Way of Water? I had very mixed feelings about it because for that film it was pretty much just a binary switch between 24fps and 48fps, and the constant switch on a shot-by-shot basis was distracting. I'd rather have the entire film 24fps or 48fps and not switch back and forth. I saw the film in IMAX twice and Dolby Cinema once and my feelings were the same about the HFR across formats.

@jackr.749 Місяць тому

Hello. You mentioned the brightness, the Vision Pro uses "Pancake" optics, these in themselves absorb a lot of light on their own, so the OLED panels in the headset are considerably brighter than the light making it to your eyes. Also, "Spatial Audio", another great way of experiencing this is a game on SteamVR called "Half Life Alyx", this is probably the best game ever made for VR, the audio is insane, in a darkened area in the game, you can hear little sounds (left say to the right rear of you) and you will turn around just to find out there is nothing there, it adds so much to the immersion and the experience. Great review of the Vision Pro by the way, I'm Canadian, it's not available here yet, but once it is, it'll be over $4700.00 Canadian before taxes, so this is one item that is forbiddingly expensive, I won't be getting this since I like keeping my body parts right where they are (none for sale)!

Lastly, if you live alone and are debating between the G4 65” or 77” tv, there is a case to be made for the Vision Pro. IMO at least, I would get the Vision Pro, because of the extra potential.

I tried the PS5 head set and wanted to love it but couldn't go for more than about 3 mins without feeling nauseous then had that feeling for about an hour and half more .... sent it back ... was wondering if I would have the same problem with this sort of device

@PSYCHOV3N0M 2 місяці тому

You're supposed to keep using the headset and the nausea will go away over time. 3 minutes doesn't mean anything. 🤣🤣🤣

@nickwaller5119 2 місяці тому

I suppose I could of kept going but it didnt feel worth it to feel that sick every time I put it on ... oh well guess its not for me @@PSYCHOV3N0M

I have a RTX 4090 and would like to use its super powers. Can it be plugged into my PC or directly into the GPU displayport or hdmi? oh and plonk on my Maxwell Audeze headphones and its 80 hours non-recharge time, Dolby Atmos & DTS .. I just want a comfortable VR that can use the hardware of my super PC to make a VR go into truly PRO mode

Interesting take. I've been doing film and video projection since 1985 (in many different formats) and the AVP impressed me greatly. I'm a big fan of the big screen, but I can certainly see displays like this being a huge part of home video. Just the 2D content I watched was watching looked superb. Did it feel like being in a huge cinema? No, but as you said, that might not matter. What mattered was the experience and being drawn into the content in a way that no TV has ever done for me. Some very good home theater projection has done that. My wife asked if something with the quality of the AVP but without all the "computing" could be better than TV at about the same price as a good TV. I think so, and would certainly enjoy it. Add great 3D content to that and it would be very addicting.

@sbondi Місяць тому

Great expert content as always! 😊 Sorry to hear about your initial experience, but partly because I have my own device, my initial experience was magical and spectacular! And continues to be so, over a month later! I have an awesome 83” Sony A1E, and arguably the best 3D TV ever: the 85” Sony X950B. And having seen many movies in top quality Dolby Cinema theaters as well as IMAX, of course in addition to my X950B with 250 movies in my Blu-ray 3D disc collection, I agree that the Vision Pro is hands-down the best way to watch 3D movies! 😊 Note that although it was a little tricky, the experience excels when you pair Vision Pro with the AirPods Max! 😊 For sure, this combo will replace my home theater for 3D movie viewing. So much so that I modified my personal custom Media Center Apple TV app to be a true Vision Pro app (not the limiting iPad-compatible kind)!

@musicaddict5076 Місяць тому

I actually did a demo of this at my local Apple store and was blown away. But I do feel like there is an issue with it really feeling like a huge screen. One thing I think might help (and it may seem weird) but would be to put a thin frame around it. It may even be an option but I think it will make it feel more real than no edge to the screen.

@acslater017 2 місяці тому

11:52 Perhaps you’re not using the special movie mode? When you’re just in the immersive environment watching a video, it maxes out at an apparent size of about 10 feet wide, 10 feet away from you. The real immersion and scale comes when you click on the center of the video window (iTunes or AppleTV+) then click the environments that appear in the top left corner. If you’re in Mt Hood, you get options for Mt Hood Light, Mt Hood Dark, and Cinema. Those are absolutely convincing to me, my favorite is Cinema. There are 6 different positions you can view in the Cinema but if you’re in the Front Row watching I’d say it looks about 15 feet tall and 30 feet wide. It’s absolutely convincing to me, I keep looking for the emergency exit sign.

@Marco-em2in Місяць тому

Yeah seems like he just tried the Disney+ app which makes the screen big but not like the IMAX app or the cinema mode on Apple TV+. Would like him to trie that and update his thoughts about it. Caleb is kind of old lol so we should give him time to get the hang this new tech. Hopefully he continues to test this device while keeping up with normal tv things.

@khele2k Місяць тому

The answer is 100% yes. I've had this thing since launch weekend and I've learned how to wear it to fit me well. Whether you want to watch a movie in 3D (Apple TV has a ton and Disney has all the Avatar/Marvel movies and a bunch of animated ones) or even just enjoy streaming on anything it's awesome, insanely immersive with Spatial audio and a theater sized TV. The other thing I constantly use it for is when I use my Mac. Browsing UKposts or watching clips of anything is on a screen the size of your room. It's a delightful experience.

@duggus777 2 місяці тому

Great video! I had a Vision Pro for a couple weeks and ultimately returned it because the lens glare/flare was just too much for me. Not everyone seems to note this and it makes me wonder if this was a phenomena maybe I'm just very sensitive to, perhaps the individual unit itself was worse than others, or perhaps the particular fit on my face made it more noticeable. This was definitely internal pancake lens reflections and not light bleed. Did you notice this much in your viewing?

@jmg5369 2 місяці тому

I returned mine for the exact same reason. I kept thinking it was external light getting in until I kept experiencing the issue in an entirely dark room. It completely ruined the experience for me and ultimately led to my returning the device.

@duggus777 2 місяці тому

@@jmg5369 interesting that you had the same experience. It feels like someone is shining a flashlight at the lenses at some off angle. The Meta Quest 3 has a bit of this as well but it’s far less severe for me. The lenses on the Quest 3 are also much larger so I wonder if that or some other property of those lenses helps mitigate that.

@acslater017 2 місяці тому

I also experience glare in my AVP but it is nowhere near a deal breaker for me personally. The Cinema environment is the best solo movie watching experience I have ever had.

@broimnotyourbro 2 місяці тому

Varies by facial geometry and other factors, and will be the toughest thing for future pancake optics to overcome. A less dark environment helps a lot, but removes a key advantage. I’m fortunate that it doesn’t hit me much, yet I find the Quest 3 almost unusable due to glare - just luck of the draw in terms my face fitting the AVP better. (trying different facial interfaces can help) You do get used to it, but it’s a huge problem (seems to be exacerbated slightly by prescription lenses, too) Source: been working on the engineering side in the VR space since 2012.

@bdshort 2 місяці тому

I would definitely love to try one of these out, and would likely buy one when they have a version out for around $1,000. I think the comment about 3D taking off when 3D video is shot for the Vision Pro is interesting - The two Avatar movies were made for 3D, and shot with 3D cameras, and obviously were wildly popular mainly due to the spectacle, but even then, 3D movie making has not taken off - most “3D” movies are still conversions. I’m guessing it’s a lot more difficult to do, and have it look good, than you (or I) think, and as you should know, there’s no real demand for it for home viewing since I don’t think anyone makes 3D capable TVs anymore. One thing I’d like to see is for Apple to allow this to work with PC VR software, like Steam VR, Open XR, or whatever. They’ve created the most high fidelity VR headset on the market, but they don’t even call it VR, and I haven’t heard of any popular VR games being adapted to the headset (lack of controllers doesn’t help). Without that, my only use case would be watching movies on vacation or something.

I keep hearing amazing, excellent and it is going to get better. This is just a first gen product only!

@triax7006 Місяць тому

It's late to the party of VR headsets, it costs $3.5k + tax & has limited use over an iPad which it basically is. The product is really for devs to try to develop apps, however most of them so far are simply iPad apps made to work better on the AVP, no real AR or VR apps. That is why the media viewing aspect is being pushed, it won't really work apart from 3d content because no one is going to strap a heavy uncomfortable VR headset just to watch media. VR gamers do it because that is the only way to play VR games. So the 3D movie aspect is the best reason to strap a AVP to the face.

@techsamurai11 2 місяці тому

The PSVR2 could actually function as that especially if Sony didn't use the fresnel pentile OLEDs but used their own super micro OLEDs that I believe the Vision Pro uses. I don't know the cost of that but if it was a matter of $100, it should have been incorporated. Also Sony has some really good headphones with the Pulse Elite that are planar magnetic - they bought Audeze that made headphones that cost $4,500 so they can deliver sound that's second to none probably at this point. So this could theoretically be done for much less but Sony kinda screwed the pooch with the PSVR2's OLED.

@icreateworlds Місяць тому

I actually bought Ps5 with the VR2 for the movie experience and I absolutely love it. Particularly when compared to PS4 VR1. I have some minor complaints but honestly the PS5 VR2 already gives me an awesome movie theater experience and sometimes I even forget I’m at home and not sitting in a theater. I really love it as it totally works for me. So , now I’m really curious about VISION PRO for movies and I will buy it when the price comes down , but for now I’m more than happy with the movie experience I get on the PS5 VR2 , at least until I get one of these things.

@phillipschuman4307 Місяць тому

It's easy to share the display of the AVP. Just Airplay it to the local smart tv. Everyone else will get a 4k HDR image with whatever sound system they have, including Dolby Atmos. It isn't antisocial for sharing movies or UKposts videos, etc. Or everyone could listen on AirPods for Dolby Atmos, for late night viewing.

I didn't read all the comments so I don't know if anyone else brought this up, but needs to be mentioned is that for people who do not have the space for a proper home theater setup, the Apple Vision Pro is a great alternative even if it can't match the real thing in all respects.
