So, ever since I bought my apple vision pro, I have been on the quest to reduce the lag of the virtual screen with my old 2019 macbook pro. I even got myself a very expensive Orbi 970 mesh router. While that helped and I literally had to station near the main node, the mouse and screen lags were still pretty much noticeable. I got myself the developer cable from Apple and this usb c cable (big gamble, I know). Boy, did my virtual screen come to life. No screen lag at all (although not the cable’s fault, I wish I could use the AVP as a sound output). So, compared to my $2K+ Orbi 970 vs the developer cable and this which is around $500 total, it’s still a cheaper alternative. (I’m still keeping my Orbi 970 as it is really fast for home network.) So if you want to have a virtual screen with zero lag on your apple vision pro, this is the ticket. Not the cheapest, but one that really works like a charm. So now, I can work at a coffee shop with a gigantic screen and several native avp apps open (as a developer, most of the open apps are browsers anyway). FYI, if you’re using this cable to charge… you just spent a lot of money for a charger cable, there are cheaper cables out there that have higher wattage. This is a data transfer cable.
5.0 out of 5 stars
It made my Apple Vision Pro as a virtual screen for my Mac come alive.
