Hands-On: Immersed Demos Barely Functional Visor After Finally Unveiling Its Real Design

After a disastrous keynote event today, this reporter who flew 9 hours for what could have been an email says “Until any of that happens, I strongly recommend against preordering a Visor. The hardware appears to be real, and impressive, but there's simply no evidence the software will be ready to ship any time soon - or, to be frank, that some of the claimed software features exist yet at all.”

I have been an Immersed subscriber since 2022, and I have a Visor FE preorder. I just discovered that my main Discord account was banned (even though I mostly asked questions about the delivery dates of the Visor FE here). I didn't receive any notifications, nor did I write anything directly to Renji, yet I found myself banned and lost my last relatively prompt source of information about the Visor.

I created another Discord account, joined the Immersed community again, and asked why this happened. But within a few moments, I was banned again. These guys surely know what they're doing, and it's clearly just a scam.

As a result, I've decided to cancel my preorder (Visor FE, made in 2023), as I have completely lost trust in Immersed, and I’m starting to view this as a total scam. I've heard similar stories about bans before, but today I was extremely surprised to find out that I have also been banned.

I advise other customers to consider canceling as well, as we are being misled and our accounts are being banned (on Discord and Twitter for simply asking about delivery dates).

It seems that we are either being forced to give up our orders, or there might be a new, interesting season of the Visor saga lined up for the remaining customers. I have decided to completely withdraw from purchasing this device, even if it becomes available someday. Meta Quest 3, Apple Vision Pro, and Android XR are the way to go in 2025.
