That's like taking a $100 Nokia phone in 2002 and saying that mobile phones are nice but will never be important.

- kibwen 3y agoIf this is suggesting that we should write off VR for now and re-evaluate in 2033, then I can get behind that.
- lanza 3y agoFine, but you came to a thread on the prototypical future variants of VR hardware. Just don't click if you don't want to read about it.
- pessimizer 3y agoJust because people are short-sellers doesn't mean they're not interested in the market.
- pmontra 3y agoRegardless of the price point (3.5k or some hundreds dollars) it's more like a heavy phone that you have to strap to both your ears. We had ones that had to be strapped to cars and didn't become popular until they were small, light and cheap. By the way, do people still ride the subway with those large earphones I remember to be fashionable before covid? I moved and I'm not using subways anymore so I'm missing observations.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoEar muff headphones have always been really niche in mobile environments (they’ve been around since the 70s!). Most people prefer lighter alternatives, like ear buds, I personally prefer bone conductive since I don’t like putting things on or in my years. By subway I guess you mean NYC, it could have been a local fad.
