Want to try Muse? It’s really good. Use code 6U1CWU and we both get One Billion Muse Tokens (first 10 takers.)
I tested the Meta Display and was pretty underwhelmed. The glasses are light and don’t look too bad. The display is tiny and the wristband / finger gesture UI is just terrible. I love my Quest and Meta Ray Bans but this is a non-starter.
