That's...not great for a device targeted at enterprise? Especially without any sort of fast recharge or swappable battery pack.
- marcooliv 4y agoProbably will support being used connected to the power, no? In general, if you will use more than two hours straight probably you will sit at your chair. If not, yeah, it will be a problem.
- amluto 4y agoYou could swap the entire headset. $3k/seat for professional gear for enterprise use is cheap.
- batmansmom1 4y agono way the actual expected use case is to have two headsets per person that get switched out every two hours.
- skavi 4y agoPersonally, I would just keep a power bank in my pocket and wire it up.
- Rebelgecko 4y agoIf you're sitting down (which I imagine is the enterprise-y use case?) you can just leave it plugged in
- patrickserrano 4y agohow does that work for controllers through?
- nickthegreek 4y agocontroller battery life shouldn't be an issue. never was on quest2.
- Duralias 4y agoControllers do full on inside out tracking, each controller being equipped with a snapdragon 662. They also do not list the battery life anywhere, which is the biggest red flag.
- nickthegreek 4y agoThat might be a concern then.
- wincy 4y agoThe controllers last a really long time on a single battery. My Quest 2’s batteries are finally getting low and I bought it six months ago.
- jandrese 4y agoPlus, they are just a single AA in each controller. Swapping takes like 30 seconds. I use NiMH rechargeables and just swap between a couple of pairs of them whenever necessary.
- Duralias 4y agoThese use integrated batteries and does full on inside out tracking on each controller, each controller having its own snapdragon 662. They also do not list how long the controllers last, not found any source mentioning that yet, which is a huge red flag.
- quux 4y agoGood question, the new controllers have multiple cameras and are doing inside out tracking now, I'd guess that they use a lot more power than the Quest 2 controllers do.
