You can get that for $500 with the quest 3

No you can’t.

The resolution is not close to sufficient for a monitor with any meaningful amount of text on it. Your eyes will be bleeding in about 2 minutes.

For pass-through monitor reading, yeah. 4MP won’t compare to the iVision’s 12MP. But “Quest generated” monitors are perfectly fine, especially if you blow them up to 8 feet.

I’m not talking about passing monitors through. I’m talking about having multiple virtual monitors in your field of view.

A shitty virtual 1080p screen taking your entire field of view is not even vaguely capable of being used for productivity purposes. It’s not remotely close. The whole point of multiple physical displays is to have a meaningful amount of information directly visible at once.

The resolution isn’t quite there yet, and I think the headset is too heavy to wear for 8hrs a day, 5 days a week (plus leisure if you’re a gamer or hobbyist)

Quest 3 is light. 515 grams. Vision Pro is 600-650 grams.

Yes, pass through resolution isn’t there yet. Virtual monitor are fine though, especially large.
