What We Do
Smart Glass Logic is a comparison database for AR, VR, and mixed reality headsets. We track every major device, rate it across six dimensions, and publish honest verdicts so you can make a confident buying decision — whether you're a first-time VR buyer, a productivity-focused professional, or an enterprise evaluating field service hardware.
Our Rating System
Every headset is scored on a 0–10 scale across six independent dimensions. Scores are set editorially based on public specs, manufacturer data, expert consensus, and user feedback — not sponsored input.
Resolution per eye, field of view, refresh rate, display technology (LCD, OLED, micro-OLED, waveguide), brightness, and colour accuracy.
Weight, balance, heat generation, facial interface quality, glasses compatibility, and ergonomics for extended sessions (1h+).
Price-to-performance ratio compared to alternatives in the same category. Considers included accessories, software ecosystem, and longevity.
App and game library size, controller quality and tracking precision, latency, and suitability for active gameplay.
Workspace and multitasking apps, enterprise software compatibility, hand tracking, and suitability for knowledge work or field use.
A composite score that weights all five dimensions, adjusted for the device's primary target use case. Not a simple average.
Score Benchmarks
| 9.0 – 10.0 | Class-defining. Best in category, sets the benchmark others are measured against. |
| 8.0 – 8.9 | Excellent. Recommended for most buyers in this category. |
| 7.0 – 7.9 | Good. Solid choice with notable trade-offs worth understanding. |
| 6.0 – 6.9 | Average. Acceptable but outclassed by alternatives at similar price points. |
| Below 6.0 | Below average. Only recommended for very specific niche use cases. |
