It doesn't need to be that fancy. Current resolution with perfect positional tracking on a mobile device with 2hr battery life, finger tracking, and photogrammetric passthrough could tell 90% of the "compelling story" your 8k device is for. And you could definitely make experiences in it worth a $400 price point.
We could be as little as 2-3 years from a device like that? At at a premium price point at least.
Remember that people had no problem staring at 320x240 screens, as long as you didn't make them jump around in a pukey way.
