*Discussion On The Controversial 2 Hour Battery On The Vision Pro. *

The battery pack for the Vision Pro headset is not a big issue as long as you're aware of its location. The field of view is similar to normal vision, so you need to look down to find the battery pack. The connection to the headset is not magnetic, but requires twisting and unlocking. Hot swapping batteries is not possible. The battery can be plugged into a wall via USB-C for unlimited power. The two-hour battery life is sufficient for most use cases, and for longer activities, users can take a break or plug into a wall. Comparisons are made to MacBook and iPhone batteries. The Vision Pro headset is not designed for on-the-go use. The immersive experience of the headset, such as interacting with a dinosaur, was impressive and without any negative effects. The tracking was initially jittery but improved over time. Overall, carrying the battery in hand while using the headset was not a major inconvenience.
