Episode notes
The intentional decision to keep the battery tethered to the Vision Pro headset serves to reduce weight and heat, paving the way for a future where components can be removed to achieve a lighter device. By starting with a tethered battery, Apple sets the expectation for users and potentially enables the removal of more components in the future. This design approach aims to reach the target weight of 300 grams, making the headset more comfortable to wear. Additionally, the possibility of eliminating the need for the battery brick by directly connecting to other Apple devices is considered. In the pursuit of a more affordable variant priced at $1500, components like the eyesight camera, the TrueDepth camera, tracking cameras, and chips are suggested for removal. This strategic design evolution of the Vision Pro headset is crucial in shaping the future of VR technology.
