Welcome back to Tech Talk in a Minute. Today, we’re diving into Tested’s latest hands-on with the visionOS developer beta, fresh from WWDC. Adam Savage and Norm Chan jump straight into Apple Vision Pro’s headline feature: “new Persona avatars.” They can’t hide their excitement as they see themselves reflected in these customizable, semi-realistic digital doubles. As Adam puts it, “It feels like a sci-fi dream come true.”
But avatars are just the beginning. Tested walks us through interactive widgets floating in your space—everything from calendars to smart-home controls—right where you need them. And if you’ve ever wanted more natural input on a headset, you’re in luck. “Tracked spatial controllers give us what we’ve long been asking for,” Norm explains, pointing out how precise hand-and-finger tracking opens new doors for design, gaming, and productivity.
In under a minute, Tested shows us that Apple’s headset is evolving from novelty to genuine tool. With Personas, widgets, and refined controllers, visionOS is shaping up to be the mixed-reality platform we’ve been waiting for.
