Users all have the same complaint about Apple's new Vision Pro headset

Apple's latest piece of tech arrived this month

The release of the Apple Vision Pro makes clear that the future is upon us, but it might not be quite as advanced as we'd expected just yet as users are all voicing the same complaints.

Apple's impressive Augmented Reality (AR) headset finally dropped this month after much anticipation, with promises to 'seamlessly blend digital content with your physical space' and allow us to 'do the things you love in ways never before possible'.

There's no denying we've come a hell of a long way from the first iPod, and while a lot of people have praised Apple's device for its innovative features, there are some issues that users have pointed out after giving it a try.

With a design not too dissimilar to fancy ski goggles, the Vision Pro presents viewers with two displays, one for each eye, to ensure the user interface always remains in view.

At the same time, the goggles allow the user to see the real world around them, meaning apps, documents and websites can be pulled up right into your living room.

However, while the tech is impressive, we're creatures of habit and will still rely on our phones for a lot of our daily lives.

With that in mind, Vision Pro users have been sharing their thoughts on what it's like to look at devices like phones through the goggles - and a lot of people have complained the view is 'blurry'.

"Readable but not perfect," one person wrote. "And only after I hold the phone still for a few heartbeats to get the cameras to focus."

"Yeah, similar for me," another added to a Reddit thread about the blurry image. "Sometimes it even warps and looks like it is curved."

A third added: "Should be clearer than this though fuzzy. I’m able to chat fine. Not ideal."

Some users have stuck up for the device, arguing that it works better in lighter environments, while others have suggested it would be useful for Apple to implement an augmented display of phones being used while wearing the headset.

Matthew Panzarino, who reviewed the Vision Pro for Tech Crunch, noticed there was a 'slight motion blur effect used in the passthrough mode' of the device, but insisted it 'wasn't distracting'.

Though some users believe certain views could be clearer, reviews of the Vision Pro are generally positive, with many reviews agreeing that the device really does bring us in to the future.
