With visionOS 2, Apple’s Vision Pro comes into focus

The visionOS experience feels a bit less like a beta now.

The addition of things like new gestures, better device support, and a couple of splashy features has removed a lot of the friction of using the Vision Pro and should give people who own it a reason to dust it off and take it for another spin. Most of the time, that includes being able to switch it to immersive mode, transforming it into a gigantic movie screen that floats above the environment you’re in, casting light on the ground or water below. Even if you can afford the $3,499 Vision Pro, the visionOS 2 update doesn’t fix everything Nilay Patel brought up in his Verge review, like its narrow field of view and the loneliness of using it.
