In episode 201, David and Donna unpack everything from Apple’s biggest announcement in years. Aside from the usual software features for the iPhone, Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch, Apple threw its hat in the ring with its first AR/VR headset, the Vision Pro, and released three new M2 Macs. Should you buy the new headset or wait? Is AR the future? Listen in and find out!

Apple has announced its long-awaited mixed reality headset at this year's World Wide Developers Conference. The headset, which is essentially a lightweight and specialized Mac that you strap to your face, represents Apple’s entry into the world of virtual and augmented reality, which, despite much potential, has remained a niche market dominated by gamers. Apple hopes to bring that world mainstream the same way that they made personal computers mainstream with the Mac, and smartphones with the introduction of the iPhone.

Nevertheless, the Vision Pro represents Apple’s first new product type since the launch of the Apple Watch in 2015, and many expect it could, like the iPhone and the Mac, change the world.
