I haven't read every review of the AVP, but I've read a few (not skim-read) - this, the Verge, Gruber, some others - and while everyone waxes lyrical about the movie watching experience, I haven't noticed a single comment about whether you can actually have a drink while doing so. I can't easily drink from a glass/can with a Quest 3 on my face. Would I be able to with an AVP?
- jlintz 3y agoUse a straw
- saagarjha 3y agoI find it to be pretty easy; some friends said they had trouble though. You can't see what you're drinking once you bring it close to your mouth, though.
- ghaff 3y agoA broader way to put it is whether people really want a completely immersive experience for most purposes. I mostly don't.
- filoleg 3y agoDrank a can of beer while wearing AVP this past weekend. No issues whatsoever, the device profile isn’t obtrusive enough to interfere. I was struggling to do that with Meta Quest 2 before tho, as the shape of it on my face ends up hitting the top of the can sometimes, and it is just straight up not the best experience. For that case, yeah, a straw would help.
- wilsonnb3 3y agolots of comments on the vision pro subreddit are saying that a straw is somewhere between very helpful and essential.
- astrange 3y agoIt's not a problem (depending on cup shape), but having anything very close to the camera breaks the passthrough illusion and can be uncomfortable.
- wilg 3y agoYou can eat and drink with it. In my opinion, I'd rather watch a movie on my laptop or TV. It looks better and is more ergonomic.
