Looking Glass has released a compact holographic display Go for just $300

Looking Glass has begun shipping three new holographic display models. Larger 16- and 32-inch Looking Glass displays are available now. The first will cost $4,000, and the price of the second is available only upon request. And at the end of the month, it will be possible to buy a compact holographic display, Looking Glass Go, the size of a modern smartphone, for $299.

Looking Glass first released the Portrait holographic digital photo frame, priced at $399, in late 2020 via crowdfunding platform Kickstarter. The company acted in a similar way now when releasing a new product – a six-inch holographic display Looking Glass Go. The device received a folding support with a variable angle of inclination.

Main characteristics of the device:

  • Screen diagonal: 6.0 inches / 15.2 cm
  • Refresh rate: 60Hz
  • Aspect Ratio: 9:16
  • Color depth: 8 bit, 16.7 million colors
  • Backlight life: 30,000 hours
  • Resolution: 1440 × 2560 pixels
  • Viewing angle: 160° maximum / 58° optimal
  • Viewing distance: 33cm to ∞
  • Power: USB adapter, 5 V, 3 A

Looking Glass is committed to lowering the barrier to entry for customers when it comes to content. Owners can now display spatial images using their own hardware, a feature Apple first introduced on the iPhone 15 Pro and Vision Pro headset. Looking Glass also offers software that can convert old 2D photos to 3D and transfer them to the display over Wi-Fi.

«With […] Apple Vision Pro and new 3D spatial capabilities in phones, we decided it was time for a headset-free holographic device for everyday users,” reads the description on the Looking Glass Go page.

Before the release of Go, the company shipped, according to its data, “tens of thousands” of displays. Considering that the price of the product line now starts at just under $300, it is reasonable to assume that the number of buyers will continue to grow.

However, the cost of holographic displays continues to be too high for the mass market. Although scaling up production is gradually reducing unit costs, holographic digital frames are still a long way from widespread popularity.
