I don't know why anyone would buy this contraption that costs more than a Oculus / Meta Quest or a HTC Vive and is targeted at consumers.

Like you said; it is a 'first gen' which usually means this is an instant don't buy. Even if you wait for it to be cheaper, the use-cases are already limited with the consumers getting frustrated and will just purchase an Oculus VR headset from Meta.

The next consumer product that will have a mass adoption like the iPhone, will certainly be AR glasses from either Apple, Google or Meta.

Definitely not VR headsets and contraptions like this one which that ship has already sailed.
