    I really hope they haven’t given up on VR. I know it’s not for everyone, but there’s still a market for people wanting to upgrade their Quest 3. Fingers crossed fall of 2026

    Another piece of garbage for people who like thinking they’re living in the future. They just don’t know what ridiculous thing to come up with next. It’s funny how he wants to portray this as a technological advancement and human advancement, when in reality it’s just another device for entertainment not much different than that phone
    It’s amazing how they first conditioned people with an idea of what “the future” would look like, and then rolled out these shallow gadgets to make people believe they’re actually living in that future. I guess that’s how they manage to sell these toys. What a sad culture we live in.

    I’m not falling for this nonsense again. I lost all my money on the first ones because they stopped working and there is no support if you purchased them on Amazon. And the system tries and push you into that silly fantasy 3 D world Meta is pushing so hard with little people.
    That’s for 12 year olds.

    The potential to hack or eavesdrop on wearers of these glasses is an ever increasing concern.
    It’s the ultimate computer interface and I’ve been eagerly anticipating it for decades, but with the potential for abuse, I’m less eager than I once was.

    Guys, I like this guy he does a great job, but can we please stop sending him to review products that require someone to have above trash tier vision? It’s almost like you guys are doing this on purpose as a joke to this poor guy. You can literally send him to review the thousands of other tech products that don’t require someone to look through them. “ hey you know it be hilarious? is if we sent no thumbs Johnson to go review the new video game controllers”
