Are they shuttered yet, or still shambling along?

Supposedly they have open roles, but it's probably just for show (since displaying 0 openings would be perceived as a negative signal). Archive.org corroborates not much is changing.

- PaulHoule 2y agoStill here https://www.magicleap.com/ https://www.magicleap.com/ and on v2 of the product. If you really want optical AR hardware that's affordable and stylish your best bet is https://www.xreal.com/ https://www.xreal.com/ I think they have a great story for "watch TV in AR" but I don't think their story for AR applications is that good.
- kotaKat 2y agoSucks to see all the V1s on eBay that will essentially be a brick at the end of the year, though.
- PaulHoule 2y agoI’ve got a Microsoft HoloLens which is more than a brick but not much more. it is weird to open up a music player turn my back to it and really have it sound like it is behind me.
- maicro 2y agoBecause I trust a random HN commenter more than what I can find on Google easily these days (though I did still search first of course)... why will they be a brick at the end of the year? If it's not for some strong built-in reason (impossible-to-update firmware has a hard date after which it will crash, etc.), do you think picking up one to experiment with would still be worth it?
