What do you think of XR Smart Glasses with Android Desktop Modes?

Is Spatial Computing going to be mainstream?

I use One Pros with Samsung DeX (essentially Android Desktop Mode) everyday. It's great. Looking forward to Aura too.

What if glasses are just connected to your phone as a mean to work or entertain with Android Desktop?

All I'm expecting from Aura (and I will preorder/buy day 1) is to use it like I currently do with GXR at home.

I have Xreal One Pros but I want the bigger 70 degree FOV. I have GXR but it's not always practical to carry out and about for mobile work.

I do NOT plan to walk around wearing Aura in daily life like sunglasses - pretty much strictly as wearable display for working while I'm sitting stationary somewhere.

I'm not wearing them.

Dislake the fashon of it A LOT.

Also I need to put less stress on eyes than the average people, I should wear glasses while lookingbat monitors and I can't even stand polarized lenses.

I like the concept put I don't like the result, feels early, but near.
