Scobleizer · x · 2026-09-27
- Robert Scoble tried both Meta's and Snap's smart glasses: Meta's VR glasses block out reality entirely, while Snap's let you see it — until you turn off the movies and try actual augmented reality.
- Snap's glasses win on hardware: no cord and no external puck. But which one will truly serve heavy AI users remains undecided.
- He expects Meta to ship a decent experience anyway, and predicts "next year is gonna be crazy" for amazing new devices.
