I bought one bc I travel a lot and it's been a game changer for me. Both in terms of watching movies and also getting some work done.

Having the something similar to a multi monitor setup in a portable setup is amazing.

the negatives are the battery and the weight after couple hours. I can do a max of two 2-3 hour sessions per day and anything more would be pretty rough. Ideally I just do one 3 hour session and the rest on MacBook.

is it cool...yep! is it a necessity? nope. would I recommend it? nope. do I love it and use it a lot? yep

I can't wait to see what Apple does with this after 2-3 generations. i still think VR is looking for that killer app.
