HoloLens 3

I wonder if by the time the HoloLens 3 comes out, we can use it for entertainment purposes such as simulations, watching media, or playing more video games. I would love to be apart of it if is in the works?

    The current value proposition is targeted at enterprise even though you can still order HL2 as an individual. I really doubt HL3 would be targeted at consumers wanting to use it for watching media, or playing games considering the fact that even at a 50% cost reduction it would be still priced at 1750 USD which is still quite expensive compared to the current consumer gadgets for watching media and playing games like Valve Index / Quest 2 / Nreal Light.

        Firefox Reality and Edge are both full web browsers, you can watch videos and do plenty of other things too 🙂
