Apple Vision Pro suffered from indecisive leadership
9to5Mac • • technology
Key Points:
- Apple Vision Pro, intended as the start of a new computing category, currently feels underdeveloped and uncomfortable, with many features incomplete or impractical for long-term use.
- Hardware issues like headset weight and software limitations, including lack of native apps and poor typing experience, hinder Vision Pro's appeal despite its innovative capabilities.
- Internal skepticism at Apple, including from executives like John Ternus who initially opposed the product, has contributed to its lukewarm development and market reception.
- John Ternus, set to become CEO in September, is optimistic about Vision Pro's future potential but significant improvements and leadership focus are unlikely before 2028.
- The product’s success depends on making it more accessible and useful, especially for shared experiences, which requires stronger leadership and a clearer vision from Apple.
