- RIMR 2y agoBecause the magic leap was an innovative new product for early adopters. The Rabbit promised to be a smartphone-killer, when all it was was a shitty android phone that only runs one app. I think people are mad about being scammed, not out of having an unsuccessful product.

- lancesells 2y agoSure it did. They promised something completely made up and at launch it looked to be about 1/10th of what they were saying it would be like. The Rabbit did the same by promising one thing and shipping another. I think Humane seemed the more honest out of all of them with what actually shipped, but should have probably sold it at $200 instead of the price of a higher-end phone. https://www.theverge.com/2018/8/8/17662040/magic-leap-one-creator-edition-preview-mixed-reality-glasses-launch https://www.theverge.com/2018/8/8/17662040/magic-leap-one-cr...
- johnny22 2y agoYou're thinking people don't want a startrek communicator (if it worked)? Do you have any evidence of that?
- darepublic 2y agoI just think they were too harsh in their judgement toward experimental and boundary pushing tech, treating it like it should be as polished as smartphones. Same people would applaud iPhone{n} for some incremental step forward even at a high price point
