I'm not seeing the connection between a hefty VR headset with AR passthrough, and a camera you wear on your face. It also seems extremely unlikely to me that a camera you wear on your face will be the next smartphone. Technologies which change society to that degree are rare. I do believe you when you say it's a great product. I like my Wayfarers and have been tempted to pick up a pair that is also a camera I can wear on my face. I've seen the Metas, they don't cut quite as sharp a profile but the effect is unobtrusive and stylish. I don't get what it has to do with VR headsets though.

The vision pros end goal is to shrink it down into glasses form so then you're wearing an iPhone on your face ... There are so many things that then can be created and will make millions and millions want to buy smart glasses. Meta has created such Glasses… For 2024… They are version .5… That make taking pictures much easier than getting out your phone for those who wear sunglasses. How many people wear sunglasses how many people take pictures every day with their phone?… I'd say billions

  Meta's are more like version .01, they don't even have a display of any kind.

    Either way Meta's Smartglasses are a great & very useful product. It makes things we already do I.e. pics/videos easier & more fun. Also taking calls & listening to music which ppl now pay tons for AirPods to just do those two things. AirPods I've always found uncomfortable..wearing glasses has never been uncomfortable. Recently Meta pushed out updates to the glasses where you can ask the glasses.. Hey Meta what am I looking at and it will audibly tell you. Also I can take video calls now where viewer sees what I see.. like me driving. Overall tho in terms of a good smart glasses UX do I need a bunch of distracting visuals to be seen ...maybe a few here and there & at the right time or when I command such but not an overload especially when driving.
