Mixed Reality (MR) is an evolving technology lying in the continuum spanned by related technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), and creates an exciting way of interacting with people and the environment. This technology is fast becoming a tool used by many people, potentially improving living environments and work efficiency. Microsoft HoloLens has played an important role in the progress of MR, from the first generation to the second generation. In this paper, we systematically evaluate the functions of applicable functions in HoloLens 2. These evaluations can serve as a performance benchmark that can help people who need to use this instrument for research or applications in the future. The detailed tests and the performance evaluation of the different functionalities show the usability and possible limitations of each function. We mainly divide the experiment into the existing functions of the HoloLens 1, the new functions of the HoloLens 2, and the use of research mode. This research results will be useful for MR researchers who want to use HoloLens 2 as a research tool to design their own MR applications.
