The much-hyped Apple Vision Pro launched on Feb. 2 to the type of fanfare and bizarre cultish celebrations we’d expect from an Apple product. Despite costing a whopping $3,499 (and also reportedly causing some users neck and back pain), it hasn’t stopped customers from purchasing roughly 200,000 headsets since pre-orders opened.
While the mixed-reality device has been selling like hot cakes, its release also coincided with the launch of a new type of guy: dudes who wear their Apple Vision Pros when they probably shouldn’t.
Not only have users been spotted wearing the headset while eating dinner at restaurants and taking care of their infants, but an incredibly disconcerting amount of Vision Pro owners have also been caught wearing them while walking across traffic intersections and even operating vehicles.
