I was close to returning my Vision Pro but after using it on a plane recently during a business trip (I travel a fair bit) I will definitely be keeping it. It has been the best in flight entertainment by far, watching 3D movies on here while flying is outstanding. It felt like I could touch the water when I watched avatar. It’s also useful for having a big screen when I’m sitting down on a sofa and using my laptop, however, when I tried to use it for work longer term, like 7-8 hours it was just too uncomfortable.

It seems awesome for plane use, but so, so bulky for light packers. Kinda similar to my noise-cancelling Bose headphones - they're great on planes, but more often than not I'd rather save the space and just use earplugs or IEMs. (They're also not mutually exclusive - if I do pack my noise-cancelling headphones, I'll wear them in addition to earplugs if I want to e.g. read in silence.)

I've been considering this as well, and it's indeed a very compelling usecase. But is it better for the same usecase than the Quest series of headsets?

I've heard stories that Quest is actually better than Vision Pro in many ways. On top of that it's also a magnitude cheaper.

I bet for in-flight entertainment use only the choice is a no-brainer.
