I think waiting until they actually work would be a better idea. That demo was laughable...

I wonder if it can cause eye damage, with trying to stare at something that is in your right eye only.

Broadening the scope of the thread to other options- The Rokid uses a two eye display. But as I use my Rayban Meta glasses mostly for video recording the Rokid turn off was it has poor image stabilization. I question the ability to focus at close range and distant at the same time.

Before RayBan Meta, I had some video recording glasses that would record in 4K and no image stabilization and it was a labor intensive job to fix the video. I had to buy these through Temu out of China but they only cost $70. The Meta Display are $860 with the tax so I certainly will test in the store before buying. I understand Best Buy and others will have them for sale too.

Rokid testing. This guy, Steven seems to be shilling for Rokid because they gave him a pair to play with. It's also a Kick Starter pre-purchase which is a huge negative for me because I got scammed years ago by a company who pushed a great 3D camera but after taking the money closed up shop and disappeared. The shills back then pushed the product and also disappeared when the company disappeared.

True! But keep in mind this is a new technology in development. I admit I'm a sucker for new technology but I try to do my homework before purchasing except when the price is really low, I take the risk.

The Mark Zuckerberg Live demo was risky and gutsy but these are never a good idea. Apple learned the hard way as did Tesla with the Cybertruck window smashing.

I always appreciated Mark's willingness to take on new ideas. I became a fan, not because of Facebook but that he put his money behind Oculus. I owned the Oculus Rift, the Quest 1, and 2. And the Meta Quest 3 which is the best on the market, does far more than the Apple Vision Pro, and has the same quality now with the latest upgrade. I sat through the Apple demo for 45 minutes and said no way! My Meta Quest 3 runs rings around the AVP. Maybe one day they will do it right but for now, Meta is the top spot so the glasses looks to be the best technology has to offer now.
