While it may not be anything flashy to look at, the Lenovo Explorer is a great introduction to the world of Windows Mixed Reality. Utilitarian, maybe, but what matters most is how it delivers the experience and on that there's little to fault. It's well made, light and comfortable and despite the thin, flimsy looking foam padding around your face, there's no evidence of light bleeding in so long as you get the fit right on your head.

Lenovo has done a wonderful job with the ThinkReality A3 AR Frames, from the build and weight to the execution of the platform. They currently work with ThinkPad models with dedicated graphics chips and the Moto G100, but there’s no reason this awesome headset couldn’t work with most modern smartphones and PCs. It’s that good.
