I dislike Apple, but this is the way future will like. AR (and maybe VR, but who knows) will definitely be amazing in a decade or so. BUT I think some people will still stick to smartphones, especially ones who don't want to spend their whole day with technology and social media.

I am definitely buying an AR headset, as long as it's affordable and can replace at least half of the tasks I do on my computer/phone. The AR device with Windows 11 and computing power of standard computer would be just fucking amazing, and I wouldn't go back.

Flying cars will be the future but I wouldn't buy a flying car today.

Brain-computer interfaces will be the future but I wouldn't implant a chip in my brain today.

Personal AI assistants will be the future but I wouldn't pay $350 for ChatGPT today.

Lot's of things will be great in the future. Bringing it up in the context of existing, silly products is a bit pointless.
