I'm not really an Apple fan nor am I going to buy this thing, but this seems like a criticism that goes away as soon as everyone does it. We all look stupid staring at our black rectangles, with notches at the top, with little headphone stems sticking out of our ears. It looks stupid at first and then you get over it

Yeah, new things will look weird until culturally appropriated. Two things that seem to differentiate AR/VR stuff from previous tech 1. They are more "worn" than "used" 2. They conceal your face while wearing So maybe cultural acceptance might take a while... EDIT: typos

> We all look stupid staring at our black rectangles Do we really though? Reading a newspaper or book would be stupid as well

People said this about voice assistants as well, we would get used to talking to them in public after a little while. I've still not seen anyone speaking to Siri or Google in public. The only thing most people use them for is setting timers when cooking ...

The black rectangle form factor is the same as a notepad. Nothing about it screams "I'm completely out of touch with my reality"
