It's the best of times and the worst of times for VR enthusiaists.

© Adriano Contreras / GizmodoAnd Pimax isn’t the only one pushing forward in the category: Samsung appears to be on the precipice of releasing its Project Moohan XR headset, a competitor to Apple’s Vision Pro that should deliver displays that are equally as premium and a UI that might be just as intuitive in a package that (hopefully) costs a lot less than $3,500. Even the Quest 3S, which is a great middle ground of weight, capability, and a truly unbeatable price, struggles with the inherent obstacles of wearing a big headset on your face—you get sweaty, hot, and your head comes out looking like you’ve been snorkeling for the last hour. As great as XR and VR experiences are, they’re still niche for lots of those reasons and more, and those downsides might feel even more stark when you compare them to emerging devices like smart glasses.
