The best currently available HMD

Goovis have come a long way. I used them G2 but in my opinion it's cumbersome with the android controller. But even in 2018 when I bought their G2, they were already ahead of their time as they could already offer 2x FHD vision. So far I have tested all the features of Goovis Young according to their specifications. It works as advertised for all devices I have - Win 10 Pro, macOS, padOS and iOS, PS5 and even a basic Blu-Ray player. All of the above devices can be connected via USB-C and even HDMI where possible. For Blu-ray it doesn't work for 3D but it's not a problem for me as I don't watch 3D movies. Overall, Goovis Young is comfortable enough although I hope one day these guys will be able to come out with something like a pair of glasses like the Moverio, which I think is more human, less like a game, and also with a detachable lampshade so you can see ahead. The young even TÜV Rheinland is certified for Low Blue Ray and this property protects our eyesight. I look forward to your Goovis CAST running (airplay for me) then it doesn't need a wired connection at all. I can just run things with a Mac Mini acting as a server and I can work or watch movies from anywhere in my home. As for me, I don't use VR or AR with HMD. Still, it can be used with USB-C in some way - and best of all, it's just a cable, although it's quite short, if you can get by with that. Ask Goovis to check Can Young work with a 3m USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 male to female active cable. When it works, it covers all known occasional uses. Great work, great product, Goovis!
