Fuck you! This is pushing me way to close to the edge of the "buying xreal 2 pro" cliff. To me this is the future, a wearable computer that retains the full freedom of a desktop. This is what mobiles should be. We just need a good input device to go with it.
I have absolutely no use case that I will actually use. But I want to buy then and find usecases, set them up just to marvel at how cool it is.
Once I aquire a pair, and set this up I'm exclusively wearing black trendcoats.
Pretty neat I've seen people do similar in the cuberdeck subreddit not sure what glasses they would use. I always wanted to use my phones desktop mode like this.
Thought this was funny, since a lot of people do in fact use their laptops outside or coffee shops:
In other words, there's a sense of freedom that you do not get with a laptop. And I can be outdoors. One of the things I've grown tired of as software dev is feeling like I'm stuck inside all the time in front of a screen. With this I can walk to a coffee shop and work for an hour or two
now the question is if there are AR glasses that strictly don't have any cameras. if there are, I'm interested
it seems this one doesn't have a camera! and it works through USB-C, which can be good or bad, but it seems maybe you can also just plug into your laptop in your backpack and that's still better than always packing up your laptop when walking. it has mics and speakers built in too.
it claims to also have a 3D mode, and some 3D features to pin apps to space, but no idea how that works. maybe it can pin the display in itself, not individual apps?
edit: it seems that only works with their own weird phone brand
