Considering only 2 Samsung phones are fully supported for the world tracking feature - with no further additions planned - I would not qualify these as HoloLense replacement, and especially not giving Apple Vision a run for its money.

These will go nowhere outside the "in-your-face" display gadget. And its a 52 degrees only FOV (horizontal I guess). Nothing impressive there.

"This means that you can convert videos captured on the iPhone 15 Pro to a regular side-by-side format using third-party iPhone apps. "

So, does it support Android at all? You know the OTHER 83% of phones out there?

And I'm a little puzzled at how a $700 display that has to be connected to a computing device like a phone constitutes "competition" for the Quest 3 at $500 that's a standalone device with AR capability which can be connected wirelessly to a PC to play desktop level VR games.
