Thats not enough to watchThe Lord of the Ringstheatrical releases, let alone the extended cuts.

Weve got some bad news.
Apples first-generation headset is only capable of mirroring your existing Mac display at a 4K resolution.
That means no virtual multiple monitor setup, which feels like a missed opportunity.

Theres simply not enough bandwidth to display more than one screen at a time or exceed resolutions of 4K.

The first generation Apple Watch was bold but flawed and saw an almost complete redesign a few generations later.
Even major redesigns of existing products arent necessarily slam-dunks.
Just check that youre asking the right questions before you jump into a very expensive purchase.
You might get more out of abrand-new MacBookfor less money, after all.
