VR is really bad now and smart glasses are blame

Remember VR? It is this thing in which you put the headphone and … You remember VR, right? If you no Remember that VR cannot blame that, because things have taken a turn since its return in 2023, and now it seems that VR is in the back stove, cold, with a heat stop, while her sister’s technique, XR/A is in the foreground and center, where she receives the attention of all the chef in Michelin.

This is not just a feeling, either; there Numbers to bear this trend. On an annual basis, Meta said last week that the Meta Reality Labs sales decreased from $ 440 million in the first quarter of 2024 to $ 412 million in the first quarter of 2025. This decrease, by accepting dead, is largely due to the tanks. Seek sales. What makes this trend interesting not just a significant decrease in sales; It is the fact that at the same time, its sales are increasingly popular Ray Ban Smart Glasses It appears to be through the ceiling. According to Meta Cfo Susan Li, the loss of Reality Labs revenues “due to the low sales of Meta Quest, which was partly compensated by increasing the sales of Ray-Ban Meta Ai glasses.” This increase in revenue, by the way, is apparently Three times on an annual basis.

If I read in my collapse, search sales are tanks, and smart glasses provide today. Or, I think this is one way to look at it. Another way to know this trend is that VR comes out, and that smart glasses (and the possibility of XR/AR inside) is to pick up the pieces. This may look exciting, but it is also completely logical in other ways.

Don’t understand me wrongly, I actually love VR/XR headphones; I believe Quest 3s It is the ideal headphone at the present time because it is light and affordable, and it still offers a full -feature XR experience that will meet the applicable XR/VR fans. However, they are still a burden. Connecting the headphone on your face is its invasive nature and not exactly what it calls most of the time. until Search 3It is lightweight and generally comfortable compared to competition, wearing your eyes, face, poor skin and teams after a while.

As much as I like to seek what it could be, it is difficult to reconcile this with what it is now. Smart glasses, on the other hand, do not share these problems. Meta’s Ray-Ban is definitely not doing half of what we want in this time stage-they don’t even display them-but they are a light touch. If you want a taste of smart features such as Bluetooth, an audio assistant, and some AI (very beating), you can disrupt a pair, slap her on your face, and wear her for hours without feeling that you are wearing anything other than a regular pair of glasses.

The lesson here is that it is better to do a little than what you expect (enough to qualify as a good start) Everything At the expense of the high -shape factor, this shines when it comes to smart glasses versus VR headphones. Not only that, but smart glasses, although they still work greatly, are also more useful in your day. Because of the light shape factor, you can already bring them to the real world and use them for real things such as taking pictures or contacting your mother. It is a reminder: You must contact your mother, smart glasses or not.

Regardless of where your priorities or loyalty lies, the tide appears to be the tide, as they often do in emerging technology, they turn. Moreover, Each of the latest speech About smart glasses, XR/A from Tim Cook from Apple and Meta Mark Zuckerberg should give you some signal to the way that water flows. If you are a fan of smart glasses, you will not worry about it, but if you are excited to realize the full VR future, you may have to wait longer.
