This feels like a whole lot of revisionism that ignores the state of the first iPhone, which had an entire feature set that amounted to "new UX paradigm, plus basic media apps and web browser".
The iPhone did exactly what it set out to do. Steve Jobs sold it as three devices in one - a phone, iPod, and web browser. It delivered beautifully. I owned it shortly after launch and immediately fell in love. I don’t know anyone who can say the same for Apple Vision Pro.
