New info on Microsoft abandoning the Hololens 3. Last week we all heard the news about Microsoft abandoning the HoloLens 3, and the denial of it by Alex Kipman and Microsoft itself.

Meta is trying to find a compromise with the EU, but if it doesn’t happen, it is threatening to leave its business in Europe, shutting down Facebook and Instagram in the whole European Union.

HP has fixed many of the visual problems of the headse t, and Microsoft has just released a patch on Windows 10 that aims at solving many visual issues of all WMR headsets (like Chromatic aberration). But honestly, I expected a bit more … it’s a bit weird that Microsoft hasn’t solved its biggest pain point yet. News worth a mention.

Besides that, it is also hiring key figures to make this AR dream a reality : the operating system project will be supervised by Mark Lucovsky, a former Microsoft engineer who co-developed Windows NT. Unluckily, only US users will be able to enjoy it for Christmas, since the launch in Europe is delayed. I hate this.

In my opinion , the true error is with the Vive 1 , that will get a price that is higher than the one of all the competitors… and that will cost as much as a Samsung Odyssey, notwithstanding its far lower features. Vive Focus comes to the west. Me while trying the Vive Focus with Alvin Wang Graylin. Vive Trackers 2.0 now on sale.

In the USA, it is almost mainstream; in Europe, it is something for people that have some knowledge of gaming or technology; in South America, is very difficult to get a headset.
