Apple Vision Pro : test, fonctions, prix, sortie en France… toutes les infos

Disponible depuis le 2 février 2024 aux États-Unis, l'Apple Vision Pro est un des paris technologiques les plus ambitieux de la décennie. Ce casque de réalité mixte, qu'Apple qualifie d'ordinateur spatial, rêve de révolutionner l'informatique. Que sait-on exactement de son fonctionnement ? De ses caractéristiques ? Cet article récapitule toutes les infos connues sur l'Apple Vision Pro.

Test du Apple Vision Pro : j’ai changé d’avis sur le futur de l’informatique

En avant-première française, j'ai porté quotidiennement un Apple Vision Pro pendant plusieurs semaines. D'abord enthousiaste sur la technologie mais peu convaincu par les usages, je pense désormais l'inverse. J'espère sincèrement que « l'ordinateur spatial » d'Apple deviendra la norme, même si cette première proposition n'a pas la maturité nécessaire pour incarner une telle révolution technologique.

Apple peut bien se la péter avec son marketing "Ce que vous faites sur votre iPhone reste sur votre iPhone", ils piétinera la vie privée de ses utilisateurs sans problème pour garantir son business. Pas mieux que Google ou Microsoft.

DOJ Lawsuit Against Apple is Headline Grabber But Poses Limited Near-Term Impact

An anonymous reader shares a report: The U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Apple Thursday, accusing the company led by CEO Tim Cook of engaging in anti-competitive business practices. The allegations include claims that Apple prevents competitors from accessing certain iPhone features and that the company's actions impact the "flow of speech" through its streaming service, Apple TV+. However, even if the DOJ proves any of the allegations, it is highly unlikely that Apple will face material changes for years, as history shows that such lawsuits often take a significant amount of time to reach the trial, let alone a resolution. The DOJ's ongoing case against Google, filed in 2020, only went to trial in 2023, with no remedies or financial implications expected for up to two more years. This is not the first time Apple has faced legal action from the DOJ.

"Precedents suggest that resolution of the complaint will take three to five years, including appeals," Bernstein analysts wrote in a note.

DOJ Blames Apple For Failure of Amazon Fire Phone, Windows Phone and HTC

DOJ, in the court filing (PDF): Many prominent, well-financed companies have tried and failed to successfully enter the relevant markets because of these entry barriers.

Today, only Samsung and Google remain as meaningful competitors in the U.S. performance smartphone market. Barriers are so high that Google is a distant third to Apple and Samsung despite the fact that Google controls development of the Android operating system.
