I've come to realize that's how they all are. No one really sees 3d pictures in their head in HD

I'm a 5 on the VVIQ. I can see the 3D apple, put it in my hand, rotate it, watch the light glint on the dimples in the skin, imagine tossing it to a close friend and watch them catch it, etc. It's equally astonishing to me that others are different.

  You close your eyes and see exactly what you would on a TV with your eyes open?

    I don't need to close my eyes, it doesn't make much of a difference, and I see what my eyes would see. It doesn't look like a TV unless I imagine a TV and put the image on the screen.

      They doesnt answer my question. Do you see these pictures the same as if you were watching an HD TV? I'm going to guess no. You don't see literally high def pictures in your head.

        And I'm going to guess you have no visualization ability, which is why you can only think in terms of a TV. That's fine, but your egocentric inability to acknowledge other people have different abilities is not, it's childish.

I can see I my head with ~80% the level as seeing with my eyes. It's a little tunnel visiony and fine details can be blurry, but I can definitely see it. A honeycrisp apple on a red woven placemat on a wooden counter top. The blue dots are the size of peas, they are stickers in a triangle. It not just images either, it's short videos. What's interesting though is that the "video" can be missing details that I will "hallucinate" back in that will be incorrect. So I cannot always fully trust these. Like cutting the apple in half lead to a ~1/8th slice missing from one of the halves. It's weird.

Talk to people who read a lot. There are people who actually "see" a full-ass movie in their head when they read. These are also the people who get REALLY angry when some live-action casting choice isn't exactly like in the book. I just go "meh", because I kinda remember the main character had red hair and a scar and that's it. :D

I absolutely do. For example, when I'm playing D&D, or listening to a podcast of other people playing D&D, I can "see" a fully realistic view of what is happening in my head. With the apple test, I can see a nice red apple, with the little vertical orange streaks, three blue dots arranged in a triangle, and I can rotate the apple in my head and have the dots move as you would expect from a real apple. I have a very vivid imagination
