The Apple Watch has failed us.

Phil Schiller had a Grand Unified Theory that “you should be using the smallest possible gadget to do as much as possible before going to the next largest gizmo in line.” Ten years later, you still can’t do many things on the watch.

You may say, blame the quality of voice assistant Siri! ChatGPT only emerged in 2023, and this time it’s backed by Microsoft behind the scenes. The Big Five still dominates the market.

The Apple Watch isn’t “quietly brilliant” enough, either. It detects handwashing and automatically starts a timer for me, but it doesn’t recognize I’m washing my hands or dishes.

People don’t talk about post-PC devices anymore. The phone has won. The notebook continues to be popular, and the web3 people continue to lose millions worth of cryptocurrencies from installing malware on their PC. Ironic.

So, what’s in our future? Is it Apple Vision Pro?

While the Vision device represents Apple’s visions for the future, it may never replace or cannibalize the Mac, but only acts as an extended device. Remember the iPad? That’s for the best of Apple’s interest, and also the innovator's dilemma.

“We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters.” It started with Twitter, then Threads, where I received the in-depth review for Apple Vision Pro[1]. MKB has a great video review[2], too.

We want a VR headset for immersive games and an AR glasses for interactive information, instead we get an AR headset lacking any award-winning titles of best VR/AR games from The Game Awards, or the metaverse.

The best is yet to come.
