The press has had two chances to try it, at most. Both being guided demos by Apple.

No one has been free to just “try it out“. There may be reviewers who are doing that right now, but the articles are certainly behind a embargo.

That said I don’t remember anyone saying anything other than that they came away extremely impressed. Which is why I’m really curious too.

That absolutely is untrue.

Om Malik, for just one, has posted at least three articles discussing in depth his extended reviews of the Vision Pro. Here's one (https://om.co/2023/12/14/why-vision-pro-will-change-photogra...):

> Over the past few months, I have had the opportunity to spend time with Apple’s soon-to-be-released Vision Pro, a spatial computer that you wear on your face.

He lists two times. The initial reveal when Apple let some of the press use it, and after 17.2 was released when Apple let some of the press try spatial videos captured on their own phones.

That’s all Apple has let the press have, at least publicly. I’m sure they’ll be getting their review units soon. But right now those two times are all we have discussions from.

Developers have been able to use it in workshops AFAIK.

You’re correct. However I think they only get to use their app, maybe they also get a short tour.

Either way they’re under NDA so they won’t talk about it if they want to keep their developer account. They can say they went to one of the workshops and that’s basically it.
