The gist of it: beware of displays bearing 3D gifts. I am not sure what the point of it all is, but putting out 3D, no glasses displays is not a recipe for success. The technology just isn’t there. The value proposition just isn’t there. It gets cheesy and gimmicky. Laptops are workhorses, we all have to use them, and they are not ergonomically great products, ie, it’s bad enough, no need to add more eye pain. Just keep 3D laptops as prototypes and flash them around at trade shows.
Though a display model in a large room of tech writers, content creators, and enthusiasts, the only way to view the 3D image was by standing perfectly adjacent to the middle of the screen, as this is where the 3D imagery was being directed. At times, the 3D imagery would flicker and jolt around the popped-out central image, and ultimately, it was just an exercise in working out my brain.

The author of the article had a negative experience with the 3D screen of an Asus OLED laptop, feeling sick and experiencing discomfort while watching the 3D clips. He experienced a screen with limited viewing angles, and the 3D imagery would flicker and jolt around. The author compares the sensation to motion sickness experienced in virtual reality (VR) and during car rides.
