Apple's Vision Pro is a spatial computing headset with a lot of attention right now, and rightly so. It marks Apple's first foray into a new market since the Apple Watch debuted in 2014, and that makes it a big deal for Apple and the mixed reality industry as a whole. But Apple has kept a tight rein on those who have spent time with it to date, leaving something of a vacuum of information. That started to change when some members of the press and YouTubers were able to get time with the headset recently, and there's a recurring theme throughout — you probably won't want to wear this thing for too long without taking a rest.
Any VR, AR, or mixed reality headset is going to struggle with one thing in particular and that's weight. Strapping anything to your head is always going to add weight that your neck has to support and whether or not that becomes uncomfortable — and after how long — depends on how well companies distribute that weight. So how well has Apple done it?
