The apple vision pro goggles: See another apple hype blitzkrieg herding the sheeple into an alternate reality that really doesn't exist. Nobody knows the end evolution of this product, the hardware is obviously not ready, yet the hype is no doubt working on this facade of functionality. I'm Still waiting for real miniaturized non-obtrusive smart glasses that could easily be a decade away. Definitely not a public product category at this time.

Big tech needs in-the-wild-data from the masses to further the development of this kind of product, yep, as always, once again they need other people's data, so launch a pricy data collection device that also collects face scans?

We might conjecture that standard glasses already exist and they need to be upgraded with tech that doesn't yet exist for the masses. As tech improves our retro-concept of eyewear or even more miniature tech evolves, then maybe we can go get fitted for the next information-communications devices, but we could be a few decades from that reality. (roadblocks for future product development are pre-built into our capital system of economics and it acts like a gigantic braking system to future tech.)

The minimal phone: A sign of the times, lowered expectations from our corporate overlords.

Possibly a solution for modern latchkey kids.
