In my opinion, Magic Leap 2 is a superior device to HoloLens 2 (see my hands-on here ), so I think that with these prices, it can have good success in the enterprise market, starting to gain shares with regard to Microsoft. It will launch with VR controllers, and will be expensive because it contains a lot of new technology.

Only the second edition in 2026 will be actually released to the market. EMG technology (the one by CTRL+Labs) is the one that Meta has identified as the best of XR interactions, so it is crucial for the company to integrate it inside its smartwatches. I think the news is the final nail in the HoloLens coffin.
