Should You Back It?
If you are a handheld gamer (Steam Deck/ROG Ally) or someone who works on the go, the Vizo X1 Pro offers one of the best “private screen” experiences currently on Kickstarter. However, if you are looking for a full 6DoF “Metaverse” experience, remember these are primarily AR display glasses, not a standalone VR headset.
