A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

For Mixed Reality devices, it is the same magnitude as Hololens 2 or Magic Leap 2, the biggest difference being Passthrough AR vs. Optical AR. A more comparable device is the Quest Pro, but the AR experience is probably much higher resolution and with binocular color cameras and depth sensors it hopefully doesn't have distortion.
Yes, it is a lot for a VR device, but for a standalone MR device it is comparable with higher fidelity, so it isn't significantly more expensive than other devices in the same category... arguably it is the best value for the category if the cameras and screens have a wide FOV with high resolution and can accurately reproduce the HDR of an environment.
