I have an old Garmin (can't remember the number, but it's the $200 model) and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. I use the steps and heart rate constantly, and it's great for viewing texts while driving just to see who they're from without getting my phone out. And as a runner obviously there are huge benefits to the GPS. Highly recommend pulling the trigger if you're thinking about getting one but haven't, as I was for literally years lol.

Lol, nobody addressed the fact that these announces are just PR...
>Seriously Concerned
😂🤣 "It's so real we are concerned people will be addicted"
"It's so good, (buy it by the way) that users will lose their grip on reality"
"It's so ergonomic you forget about the pain and suffering of the children who made it" (said with the voice of pinhead from hellraiser... Because that's good ssssuffering)
This reminds me of the Rockstar bad news at the release of GTA1, where they paid or asked for it.

Plus, a lot of us carried walkmans and discmans for years. Most still use wired headphones for phones in their pocket.

I rather have the battery plus the apu/soc on my hip than on my head imo. It would reduce a hell of a lot of weight from the units.
But $3k for a rumored price and this thing is going to be a tough sell even for apple

I had higher priorities for mouse features than what fucking charging port it uses. USB-C is firmly in the "nice to have" category.

Oh I was thinking of Linus Torvalds. I thought I was missing out on something more technological.
Ah well, hope that Linus is okay and all. Not my jam there really, but I know others seem to like em.

You make it look like an iPod gen 1. Retro is hip.

The dock and hub would be an excellent addition to my portable work station for my documentary work working with footage! Have been trying to keep things organized and efficient, especially with multiple drives and multiple screens!

The Quest Pro with those pancake lenses and distributed weight on front and Back looks pretty good.

At that price point $3000, it is a bit troubling.

People laughed at every single first generation product Apple has made after the phone. iPad, Watch, HomePod and AppleTV
It’s not gonna be the final product. It never is. Like every other Apple product by third gen it will be 1st in class.
Bank on it
Apple’s big enough they don’t need the initial offering to be a smash.

Tesla engineers said production was rushed. Outcome: Recalls, lots of recalls.
Engineers at Apple say they aren't ready. I believe them.

No pun intended, but Apple is hip, they'll make it happen. You're not going to be cool, unless you knocking over little old ladies and giving kids concussions from your battle brick.
Then what? You going to walk around with battery grenade on your waist, and then China can easily pay us back for Tik Tok ... Tick Tock.
You and a Tesla would have one thing in common. You both would be able to burn rubber. :-)

I'd rather have it on my hip than on my head. Heavy headsets is what sucks more than how it looks (and tell me a headset that looksnon laughable.

Reply to OnePlus and Oppo set to leave parts of Europe, report says by Captain_Smartass_
>Prolific leaker Max Jambor reports that OnePlus is also leaving Europe. According to him, both companies are starting their retreat with Germany, the UK, France, and the Netherlands. It looks like both brands will stay in Spain, Switzerland, Italy, and a few more European markets for now, but this could change long-term.
