This could have been an absolutely insane product, if they sold it without all the useless bullshit like the facial passthrough, at a decent price. As it is, especially given how fragile it is, it’s just a toy at best.
It’s basically taken the exact opposite route of something like the Xbox Kinect, which turned from a toy into something people use in science
Idk, vr porn is creepy af. Or at least it used to be 5 yrs ago or so… Imagine a girl so huge one her tit bigger than your head, for example. So, yeah, I noped out pretty much instantly
Maybe for traveling. However, how many people really are going to buy an expensive electronic device for a few hours on a plane?
That’s a pretty “upper class” luxury at best. Then, there’s nobody developing apps for it outside of a few streaming providers (maybe).
Also, I work with multiple monitors all day and play games on those monitors at night, but I still appreciate that I can look away from the content and just “get up and get a drink” or look out the window and watch the birds outside of my office at the feeder.
Also think about all this effort people put in to try and reduce their screen time… A VR headset is the antithesis of that objective.
How they can justify that price for a headset with no third strap is beyond me. If I’m paying three grand for a headset, it had better feel like nothing is on my face.

Is facial passthrough like face identification or just passthrough?
Your eyes on the front display is what i mean. Passthrough for your own vision is awesome
Now that’s not creepy at all
Oh okay. I was like… passthrough is a major part of the product lol.
I really don’t think head sets will ever be absolutely insane products.
Lots of people just don’t want to strap a display to their face.
They might be cool for gaming ag least. Or porn.

I can see a good use case if they make a decently functional lightweight headset that can replace multiple monitors, particularly for traveling
