Dear all, I wish I could have said bye in person, but unfortunately I'll be on sick leave till 27th May at least. I'm sorry I wasn&#...
The article explains us about the test of a new Apple device. Although the tester apparently is get used to other VR devices, this one seems to him different. On the one hand, he is underwhelmed by the immersive experience and the asthonishing image quality, but on the other hand, he believes that Vision Pro isn't a useful daily work tool yet, it's slow, expensive and hard to drive.
ReplyDeleteI won't be buying one anytime soon but who knows about the future. I've also denied and refused to buy cutting edge technology in the past, but I had finally to jump through the hoops.

The article TALKS about the test of a new Apple device. Although the tester apparently is used to other VR devices, this one seems different. On the one hand, he is underwhelmed (IMPRESSED?) by the immersive experience and the astonishing quality OF THE IMAGE, but on the other hand, he believes that Vision Pro isn't a useful daily work tool yet, it's slow, expensive and hard to MANAGE.
I won't be buying one anytime soon, but who knows about the future. I've also refused to buy cutting edge technology in the past, but I FINALLY had to GIVE IT A SHOT.
P.S I omitted some words. And one more thing, can you check the meaning of the expression jump through hoops?
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, 'Jump through hoops' means to have to do a lot of things that seem difficult or unnecesary in order to achieve something, so in this case, I could use this idiom, couldn't I?
ReplyDeleteI guess you could, but it doesn't make much sense to me. You have to jump through hoops to get a green card in the States, for example.
DeleteOr maybe, as you say, Would be better to use the idiom,give it a shot? it means, to try something, to make an attempt at doing something, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYes, for example you can say: I've never gone hiking, but I think I'm going to give it a shot.
