The future of Vision Pro is limitless.

We’re talking fully immersive environments with real physics, hand tracking that feels like magic, dynamic collisions, interactive worlds you can walk inside, and experiences that blend reality with imagination. This is where computing is heading.

CES 2025 just started, and we’re already seeing incredible tech.

Here're 20 most impressive reveals of CES 2025 so far:

1. Halliday Glasses: 3.5-inch AI smart glasses

FOV isn't going to onboard the next million VR users.
Content will.

Meta brought their Boba 3 to SIGGRAPH (FOV ~180 vs Quest 3 ~109).

Its just a prototype, and it matters less than people think.

VR never had an immersion problem - people fell in love back in the DK1 era.

Form factor improvements help adoption, like the shift from PCVR to wireless inside out tracking (and a 80% cost reduction) was meaningful.

What really matters:
- In headset exclusive content, mostly games
- strong retention loops + social
- shorts/tiktok distribution

The next wave of users will buy a headset after watching VR content on Youtube, not after reading a hardware spec sheet.
