So there are certainly some valid use cases. They could be useful for surgeries, engineering design work, surveying, etc. None of these have you wearing them all the time or in social areas through. It’s a niche product they need to focus on those markets and stop trying to force mass adoption. It’s the same as AI.
There’s a long history of pointless peripherals and people finding obscure use cases. I wouldn’t mind trying to write or code with them. I’m not sure if it’d work since writing these days usually involves a full office suite and coding invovles some sort of IDE… maybe texting? notes in class? Very basic games like Pong? a search function? Reading like a kindle?
I can see some neat little things being appealing.
If they didn’t have a camera they’d be pointless, there’s really no reason to have a screen on your face if it wasn’t to help AR the world.
Which is why it’s going to need an extremely valid reason to use them aside from being a creeper.
Lidar, rather than a camera. Allows it to create a 3d model of what’s in front of it without being able to take pictures itself

Get away with watching YT at work? Reclaim hours of my life, that’s my end goal.
I’d use them to subtitle everything because i’m deaf

funny, I see it as a privacy nightmare and a tool for the worst kind of creep.
There’s a YouTube guy that made his own and uses it as a teleprompter during his videos. Certainly a niche use case.
Not these devices but Zach Freedman of Voidstar Labs uses a single eye display as a teleprompter.
There is no market for such niches.
