Yesterday, a report by Alex Heath on The Verge reported that Quest has sold around 20M units. Since this is well beyond the 10M threshold we were all waiting for, does this mean that VR is getting mainstream? Well, things are not that straightforward in my opinion… The magic 10M threshold Speaking at Oculus Connect […]
Today very weirdly I saw some snow outside of my window. The weather is getting crazy… a bit like me. I really hope you are having a great time, maybe with a newly bought PSVR 2 headset. I’m preparing for my next adventure… can you guess where will it be? Top news of the week PlayStation […]
VRTUOLUO is one of the leading VR publications in China: let’s say it’s a bit like the Chinese version of Upload VR. When I was in Shenzhen, everyone was talking about them to me, and then I had also the pleasure to meet them and have a coffee with them (they’re very nice people!). I […]
In my career as an XR professional, I’ve got to know people from all over the world, especially thanks to this blog, social media, and the international events I attended. This has let me expand a lot my horizons, and understand that often, without noticing, we focus on only one part of the world, the […]
I’ve almost fully recovered from my little flu so I can be productive again. It’s a weird period, with ups and downs, but I try to focus on the up things. Like a few days ago I had a Linkedin post with 1.5M+ views… an impressive number I had never reached before. It was of […]

We are living the generative AI hype, with everyone getting crazy about ChatGPT. And every day I read articles about how AI can disrupt the metaverse, how ChatGPT and metaverse are the perfect match, and especially about how the fact that if your XR company doesn’t have an AI strategy, it is already old and […]
Today is my last day in China. These days have been hectic: I have met very interesting people (you will read about that in some upcoming articles), and I’m super happy about it. But this also created problems with my usual schedule… and that’s why you are reading today a version of the newsletter which […]
Yesterday I was visiting the amazing people of VRTUOLUO, which is one of the leading XR publications in China, and they were so kind to let me enter their lab, where they have all the headsets they have reviewed these years. It was for me the occasion of seeing and trying briefly some devices that […]
I’ve read a lot of articles and XR news this week, but actually, at the end of the day, nothing relevant has happened, except for the usual rumor about Apple… so you can close this roundup now… no ok, I’m kidding! It’s not been the most exciting week ever for XR, but there is still […]
