I’m meaning more in the sense of a wearable head device developed by a big tech company. It’s heavily marketed as the next big thing. Many talk about it - both with anticipation and concern. And when it finally releases, it’s quickly forgotten about.

Hololens did the same.

To be fair, the evenrealities ones are much closer to something that could be mainstream for AR than what apple made or the google glass. The apple vision pro is big, bulky, expensive and proprietary. The google glass was expensive, had little use, proprietaryness, and looked goofy, plus was only one eye. This solved the issue of bulk and looking out of place. However it hasnt solved being proprietary or costing a lot. I can only hope that future glasses fix these two points, even if they dont come from evenrealities
