To be fair, the technology is really fascinating. Virtual objects throwing shadows on the real environment or generating a virtual face in realtime is stunning. But on a practical note, does this keep your face from getting sweaty? Can you wear glasses comfortably? Can you change light seals when they get dirty?
Nevertheless this is in effect just a glorified monitor, but will certainly cost several times more. So I really can’t imagine compelling use cases. Especially since you can only use it with other apple devices.
I just feel like VR is never really going to be a thing most people enjoy using. People have always used tools with their hands, the smartphone is just the most advanced version yet. Wearing something over your field of vision feels unnatural and unintuitive, and I don’t see that ever changing. I already feel kinda uncomfortable even when I just put my hoodie up. What if someone comes at me from behind 🫣
Oh hey Tim Cook tweeted a video ad about the nightmare goggles today and the first thing it showed was someone using them to work while barely paying attention to making their child breakfast.
Very cool and good I love capitalism =^)
Oh gawd no. Please. We can stop this. For our children. No one buy it.
cool, now we won’t be able to tell where our lives start and our jobs end
Don’t use it
