In our opinion, Apple is going to release a dedicated Final Cut Pro app for its newly announced revolutionizing spatial computer headset, the Vision Pro. Furthermore, we would bet that Blackmagic is working (as we speak) on an app called DaVinci Resolve for Vision Pro. All the pathways are leading in that direction. Here are our two cents.
Apple’s new spatial computer (NOT AR/VR headset)
Apple Vision Pro is a mixed-reality headset. However, Apple does not market the device as being a virtual reality headset, and has avoided the use of the terms “virtual reality” and “augmented reality”, but markets the Vision Pro as a “Spatial Computer” where digital media is integrated with the real world, and physical inputs —such as motion gestures, eye tracking, and speech recognition— can be used to interact with the system. The eyes’ frame contains five sensors, six microphones, and 12 cameras. Users see two 1.41-inch (3.6 cm) micro-OLED displays with a total of 23 megapixels usually running at 90 FPS through the lens but can automatically adjust to 96 or 100 FPS based on the content being shown. The Vision Pro uses the Apple M2 system on a chip. It is accompanied by a co-processor known as Apple R1, which is used for real-time sensor input processing. Again, you should think of it as a spatial computer. This is not a VR/AR headset!

The Vision Pro is being praised
Reviewers who have been testing the Vision Pro have mostly good things to say about it. The Vision Pro has no lagging, the screen looks perfect, the interface is ultra-accurate, and most importantly, it can be defined as a revolutionizing disruptive product, even more than the iPhone. Do you remember what the iPhone did? So think about what the Vision Pro can do in terms of the market’s needs, usability, and new consumer behavior.
Having said that, these apps are not specially developed for Vision Pro. There are a few hundred apps that were created to utilize Vision Pro-tech, and FCP, and Resolve are not among them, yet.
Even Apple states that the Vision Pro is the most sophisticated product it has built, with over 5,000 patents focusing on the device itself. It seems that Apple is putting all its chips on it. Hence, the company is determined that the Vision Pro would be transformed into a huge success, even more than the iPhone. Now let’s talk about the professional market, as the Vision Pro costs like a prosumer product. We believe this product is made for professionals, especially in the segment of content creation, but not yet.

Professional editing: Pro Apps are good, but not enough
Generally speaking, every app that has a dedicated iPad version, can work on the Vision Pro. That means Final Cut Pro for iPad and DaVinci Resolve for iPad can work pretty well on the Vision Pro. Although editing and color grading with these apps on the device have major advantages over the iPad/Desktop platforms, there are some difficulties and muddles, like battery consumption, eye fatigue, and orientation, but mostly accuracy issues. Sure, the Vision Pro allows you to edit on a huge canvas with great and precise colors and zero latency.
Furthermore, the privilege to be working on a multi-screen interface makes it easy and efficient. You can create dedicated screens for color pages, edit/cut pages, and others for viewing. Having said that, these apps are not specially developed for Vision Pro. There are a few hundred apps that were created to utilize Vision Pro-tech, and FCP, and Resolve are not among them, yet.
Maybe that’s the reason for the slow FCP R&D tempo for the desktop version…Apple might be concentrating on the new device. Hence, a Vision Pro native app will be awesome. It will open a whole new approach to editing, called Spatial Editing.
DaVinci Resolve for Vision Pro
We would eat our hats if Blackmagic Design is not developing a dedicated app for the Vision Pro called ‘DaVinci Resolve for Vision Pro (like DaVinci Resolve for iPad). We would be betting on Apple as well regarding the Vision Pro version of Final Cut Pro. Maybe that’s the reason for the slow FCP R&D tempo for the desktop version…Apple might be concentrating on the new device. Hence, a Vision Pro native app will be awesome. It will open a whole new approach to editing, called Spatial Editing.
Therefore, 2026 will be the year of a new content creation era titled Spatial Content Creation.
We believe these apps will be ready with the next version of Vision Pro, somewhere in 2026. Therefore, 2026 will be the year of a new content creation era titled Spatial Content Creation. Pro applications specialized in the Vision Pro interface and capabilities (Logic, FCP, Resolve, PP, AE, and more) are about to be born. Are you ready for that?
How about Blackmagic Design an ACTUAL app for iPad first?? Not that sad, lazy, pathetic, nightmare of a UX app they call DVR for iPad that was made with nothing more than checking the “Compile for iPad” checkbox in Xcode. Apple showed how it’s done with an ACTUAL and USABLE app with FC for iPad and even Luma Fusion is the FAR better app. Because all the features in the world aren’t worth **** if they’re effectively unusable or even NONSENSICAL for that form factor.
The iphone 1 cost in 2008 €499 and €569. This is also why it has become popular
Complete nonsense. Adjusted for inflation that’s over $800 and the first model was FAMOUSLY ridiculed for its supposed way-too-high price. So you don’t know what you’re talking about. Never mind that the comparison as a whole is ludicrous.
Yes, but don’t fret. I’m just saying that $3500 dollars is an obstacle to the item becoming as popular as the iphone has become. Teslas are a successful product, but they are not exactly popular.
Your comparisons are more and more MORONIC as you go along. WOW.
Take the damn anger management pill your doctor recommended. You are not able to write on a forum without insulting. Stop writing in caps lock and grow up, kid.
