Joshua, I think you are under some sort of misconception here. This is not a headset which plays back audio or maybe it also does this although I have a feeling it does not because I seem to remember them talking about using it together with Airpods or something like that. This is capable of generating a virtual reality environment as the name implies and that is why I earlier commented regarding its accessibility features that it may not be so easy to make this fully accessible as it has an extreme visual focus. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Joshua Hendrickson Sent: Friday, June 9, 2023 8:01 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: What is happen to the Viphone list? My problems with the vision pro headset are 2 things. First, the cost, I have bought way to many bluetooth headsets in my life. I have them all, bose nc700, sony xm5, and apple airpod max to name a few of the big ones. And ones from AKG, Anker, and JBL to name some of the smaller ones. I'd never pay $3500 for any headset, I don't care how good it is. Now, if I did have $3500, I'd pay that in a second for a beautiful hd28 martin guitar. Next, is the battery life. The vision pro only has 2 hours of battery life. That is way to few hours to even watch a long movie, or do a whole lot. You might watch one full movie with the headset on, but nothing else. I'll stick with my iPhone 13 pro max.
