Cover Story: We evaluate the Extended Reality (XR) user experiences of multi-mode and multitasking among three mobile platforms: (1) bare smartphone (PhoneXR), (2) standalone mobile headset unit (ClosedXR), and (3) smartphone with clip-on lenses (LensXR). Results showed that users generally valued the immersive experience over usability—ClosedXR was clearly preferred over the others. Despite potentially offering a balanced level of immersion and usability with its touch-based interaction, LensXR was not generally received well. PhoneXR was not rated as particularly advantageous over ClosedXR even if it needed a controller. The usability suffered for ClosedXR only when the long text had to be entered. Thus, improving the 1D/2D operations in ClosedXR for operating and multitasking would be one way to weave XR into our lives with smartphones. View this paper
