Wow, this is the first thing anyone’s written about the AVP that’s made me go “maybe I would use this kind of device…”
I didn’t even think about how nice they’d be to use outside on sunny days, compared with a laptop (or, coupled with one).
- justanotherjoe 3y agoyes, but isn't part of what makes being outside nice is some measure of sunlight on your eyes?
- vundercind 3y agoEh, I’m usually in fairly dark sunglasses anyway. Trying to hold the worst of the cataracts off until my 70s if I can.
- maximus-decimus 3y agoPersonally, it's more the sun on my skin that's pleasant.
- kromem 3y agoOf course the irony is that being "outside" is actually watching a live video recording of it from outer cameras on a screen in front of your face. I'm not necessarily criticizing that - more thinking that we're likely approaching a fidelity threshold where you no longer care it's a screen (I still don't think we're quite there yet and suspect this is just one gen before the device that will survive the few months in VR great filter).
