Ask HN: Anyone using a Quest Pro instead of monitors?

At home I have a quality 32" 4k monitor parked just above my laptop (so one big screen and then the small laptop screen below). That works fine. Of course I would like a LOT more screen real estate, but I don't want to radically change my desk setup right now.

The big issue for me is that I (like to) travel a lot, and I like to travel light. Someday if/when there's a glasses solution to replace monitors, I'll be a super happy traveler. I'm just hoping to hear from people using the latest/greatest that we're close now...

The experience is getting there, I think Lenovo's ThinkReality[0] is working on something you might be interested in. Their product seems to be solely targeting comfortable virtual display use, and early reviews have been pretty positive. I'd expect a sub-$1000 product in this space before 2025.

Thanks! I had not heard of this one. The more the merrier, because it will get us there faster.
