I’ve said this elsewhere: The Company Formerly-known as Facebook’s headset has some impressive features and tech. However, the pixels-per-degree is abysmal. They need to at least triple it to be competitive with smartphones or birdbath optics. I’m not holding my breath but, I’d also not be mad if they succeed and are able to deliver for a reasonable price point.
There’s also a huge amount of bad will.
VR/AR are still (yes, even years later) in the tech enthusiast niche, because the actual tech is hard. But a sizable chunk of tech enthusiasts know enough to hate Facebook, hate them specifically in VR because of how they handled their purchase of Oculus, or both.
