One word: 2-hours-battery



Why do you think 2 hours battery life for this form factor is a debilitating constraint?


It won't be a casual device that you want to put on/off to check the news while saving battery, so it's not a contender for the smartphone. Two hours is not enough for daily work, so it won't replace the computer. Meaning this is a routine device that you use once or twice per day then forget about it.


I use my laptop everyday and leave it connected to power. Battery power is nice but rarely used.


But we don't walk around with the laptop while working, headsets need to be wireless.


Can’t you plug in it? My Windows laptop gives me about 45 mins tops. My Quest is never charged when I go to use it. It only gets charged when I use it.
