Consider it for a specific media or virtual-display workflow after a hands-on trial.

Why: Reviews show useful performance and improved fit, but high cost, app gaps and limited untethered sessions restrict wider adoption. Clinical evidence remains confined to a controlled pilot.
Next: Test required apps, comfort and session length on the intended software version. Keep a conventional workflow and immediate backup for critical uses.

Constraints

High purchase cost and optional optical accessories.
Headset weight and fit can limit prolonged wear.
Limited battery endurance; longer sessions require external power.
Native app coverage can leave gaps in existing workflows.
Reported staffing cuts create uncertainty about long-term platform investment.
Clinical visualization needs specialized integration and immediate backup; routine safety and reliability remain unestablished.
