You are overly exaggerating the field of view issue. I&#x27;ve tried the hololens twice already (the untethered version they will be shipping). Field of view is definitely smaller that I&#x27;d like, but it&#x27;s MUCH bigger than a 6 inch phablet at arms length. It&#x27;s closer to the size a 24 inch monitor sitting on your desk at arm length.<p>Almost all tech journalist that tried it were blown away by the experience. Most of them mentioned the field of view issue, but I haven&#x27;t read anyone saying that it was such an issue that it made the technology any less impressive.
