Microsoft Ends HoloLens 2 With No Successor in Sight

Following Meta and Snap’s big augmented reality news, Microsoft has announced that the HoloLens 2 has been quietly taken off the market

People who are still interested can still pick up a unit until they run out. After that, the 5-year-old device won’t work anymore.

Microsoft told UploadVR that until the end of 2027, it will keep providing important security and software updates. The company hasn’t said for sure, though, whether a HoloLens 3 will happen.
