The problem is that it doesn't work, it's bad. You can make a bad product with a company with a "valuation" in the billions, we need to start to understand that. And there's good alternatives to the product that actually do work better at a similar price point.
This is not a "product market fit" problem, this is bad tech being pushed down the pipes until it makes it out of a fucked up company.
In what way is it bad? From the various video reviews I’ve seen, it seems to work a lot better than the Hololens circa a couple years ago.
It seems to be significantly worse than the Lenovo AR toy lightsaber thing that clips onto your phone (similar to Meta’s design).
Other reviews in this post say that it’s not even as good as the original Hololens
I would call bullshit on that. Just the double FOV would make it barely usable compared to completely useless like the first hololens.
