Very good point. I also don't think, despite the demos apple has shared, people are playing to use this in an office environment where they interact with people.
Got a tip for us?

He mentioned getting queezy from watching movies , I feel the same on my quest 3 watching youtube....I think waiting for this to mature is the wise thing to do
I am amused by the final words in the Verge review, asking if you really want a computer that has video cameras looking at your hands at all times... hardly the ideal porn viewer after all. 🤣🤣
The Personas look so creepy. ANd the verge has some good points. VR is a compromise.
Neither I. And I suspect the tech is common or outdated in 5 years, but that’s just a gut feeling.
But it does look nice.
It would be nice if they could delegate all the processing to a connected iPhone and fit the cameras/sensors into a normal glasses frame... Then it would be for the masses
iJustine said that motion sickness is common if you move your head around.
She said if you sit still and watch, you won't get ill...
Will see - can't wait to watch my first Disney in 3D this Friday.
All the reviewers sharing their screen recordings (and their shaking) was certainly less impressive than Apple's marketing. I understand that has to do with screen recording quality. I will admit the reviews did not make me even more excited for Friday. I'll keep it regardless, 14 days isn't really enough to fully find out its potential over the next couple years. Also, glad I didn't splurge for the 1T model. This Gen 1 version is for "lets just see what it can do".
I think you have to take their words as fact instead of the shaky cam footage.
Yup. That's how it works. No different from when a new iPhone, Galaxy, etc gets released.
I must be a laundry wiz because I don't understand how this is even a use-case worth mentioning. Maybe 20 minutes per week and I have 4 kids. You guys changing clothes 3 or 4 times a day??
This is a regular VR headset that disguises itself as an AR headset. For 3,500 bucks. In person, the helmet looks smaller than expected. Heavy. 650 grams makes itself felt.
Face scanning is funny implemented, but you need to keep your glasses in a death grip.
Lags are visible in the interface.

It's like seeing a 3D police sketch of yourself.
