**Bottom line: the Microsoft HoloLens 2 is the better buy for most people, unless you need the lighter fit.**

- Buy the Inmo Air2 if you want the lighter 99g fit (vs 566g) and you want adjustable lens dimming.
- Buy the Microsoft HoloLens 2 if you want the wider 52° field of view (vs 26°), you want smoother 120Hz motion (vs 90Hz), you want a built-in camera, and you want spatial audio.
