Unboxing Apple’s New $549 AirPods Max 2 in Purple
At first glance, the AirPods Max 2 don’t seem like much of an upgrade from their predecessor. But when you factor in the improved noise canceling, sound quality, voice-calling performance and new features, they do seem to be about 20% better than the previous model. That may not seem like a huge difference, but it’s…

Eh.. at lot more cartoony. Apples just put more hours into it. Metas codec avatars are still best in class.

Based on what I’ve seen they look like the Xbox 360 avatars and super janky. One of the videos I saw had horrible stutter and couldn’t keep pace with the user’s hands and kept clipping into itself.
No doubt Samsung and Google engineers are working hard to replicate Personas but right now Apple has a huge head start.

If they can scan rooms on the oculus quest using the same technique and technology, we should be able to scan our faces and have better avatars on there. They copied AVPs UI…they should have no problems copying and make similar avatars.
@markbrown5298
November 3, 2025 at 9:25 am
You are completely dreaming Apple technology is just miles ahead of Meta it’s why they are trying to copy Apple interface now. Meta quest is like a Camry great family affordable car not BMW ever! I have a Apple Vision Pro it’s a reason it’s $3500 not $500!
@aleksei5195

Meta has been developing hyper-realistic avatars called ‘Codec Avatar’ for years, and they are ultra high quality in every single detail.
The problem is they made the bar too high, it’s kinda hard to optimize properly. They even have proper hair/cloth physics and very interchangeable, which current Apple Persona falls weak. Apple’s Persona kinda blurs out where they aren’t confident enough, and their hair is just a blob.
@fmax3000
November 3, 2025 at 11:30 am
@aleksei5195Dreams don’t matter until they become real. What we have now is the reality. AVP is miles away and that’s so evident when meta went on a copying spree since AVP first announced. The processor, the amount of sensors and cameras, the 4K glasses, and the tech behind AVP is years ahead of the commercial staggering Meta’s.
If what you’re saying is true, then by the time they’re ready to show it, Apple will probably have holograms on the floor.
Meta bought the oculus which was the best and ruined it, just like anything else they acquire.
I deleted WhatsApp when bought it and now people reporting facebooks ads matching their WhatsApp chats, and friends suggestions matching WhatsApp friends!
Good luck trusting a scammer like zuc and a company built on harvesting people’s data for sales, and spying.

@aleksei5195after posting this, I googled it and saw that meta is also doing full body avatars and the article was recent.
@MrMittens01
November 3, 2025 at 4:13 pm
@markbrown5298I don’t think it’s a dream, they are definitely working on it. Full body avatars. I’m not denying that Apple is superior. I’m just saying that metas devices could make something similar. Not everyone can afford a $3,500 device, at least meta is trying to get more people to experience what these devices are capable of by pushing boundaries and making things affordable. The best technology means nothing if it doesn’t get mass adoption.

Ppl really have to try it. I cried the first time I saw my friends persona standing in my room.
There’s NOTHING a video can do to get you to understand the feeling of presence when you’re miles apart.
It’s far beyond FaceTime, in the same way FaceTime is a little better than just a regular phone call. Except this is 100x better. It almost feels like teleportation.

How is this a nonexistent problem? The obvious problem being solved for here is that, previously / traditionally, you couldn’t do video calls while wearing an AR headset.

November 3, 2025 at 10:12 am
Great video. I was one of the rare ones who liked the first personas. I had only seen the cartoon avatars from the major gaming headsets before Apple released theirs. I prefer Apple’s personas to the cartoon which is fine for gaming but not anything else imo.

@MarcusWarcus40
November 3, 2025 at 12:26 pm
The number was 500,000 people last year. And that was last year. Now we’ve had some huge updates adding new features and they refreshed it with a new head strap and m5 processor. I think it’s doing well for what it is
@zero11010
November 3, 2025 at 1:18 pm
@MarcusWarcus40 the number isn’t 500,000 from 2024. The number was “UNDER 500,000” in 2024.
I’ve got google, too. 😉
Estimates seem to be roughly 400k.
And, try to guess what percentage was returned.
From what I can tell they were getting returned at a REALLY high rate.
Stuff like this is like the cyber truck. The people who want it buy it the second it comes out. People who have $4,000 for a tablet you wear on your face want it when it’s new and exciting … not a year or two later.
And now people know these things suck. They can’t really be used for work. They can’t be using for much gaming. They are GREAT for watching about an hour of TV. They have short battery life and they’re super uncomfortable if you try to wear them more than an hour.
THAT is what this is.
@zero11010
November 3, 2025 at 3:05 pm
@MarcusWarcus40 you’re misquoting the numbers. And, THEN you have to think about the sky high return rates.

Nice video!
Let me say, if anyone want to communicate with me using a persona/avatar of themselves, I’ll go with a still photo of myself. For me, it is disrespectful to expect me to prep for live camera, only to send a representation of themselves. Just sayin’

@arnavsingh8345
November 3, 2025 at 4:01 pm
I’ll be honest, this is leaps and bounds better than earlier versions of virtual personas. It might seem niche right now, but it’s genuinely category-defining in virtual communication. If it’s lightweight and easy to adopt, it could be incredibly valuable for remote work and for consuming virtual media with friends.
This might actually be the Vision Pro’s killer use case – bringing people together, virtually, all the time. Most AI and SaaS innovations ride on hype and speculative futures, but this feels like something that could really be useful once the form factor matures. Maybe not in 5, but in 10–20 years, it could be huge.
Imagine streaming Netflix with your friends or family across the world, it’s like having everyone in the same theater or playground. And with AI, the possibilities just get more interesting (though pretty useless right now for most audiences). Long comment, but yeah this is pretty cool. Cheers.
