I don't think the physics will ever be there in terms of battery/energy consumption of said future devices, meaning that I don't think Apple (or any other company) will ever be able to build a processing-device that won't have to depend on a big enough battery.
You could try to miniaturise it all (up to a point) and include it as part of the device itself, similar to Google Glass, but who would want such an energy "bucket" so close to one's eyes and face? That's just disaster (and a big lawsuit) waiting to happen.

- paganel 3y agoThe iPhone is quote a big (and at times quite heated) device, not sure that the philosophy behind it will help Apple in this case. Apple Watch, while physically small, it can't honestly do all that much (like displaying a movie in HD-like conditions on a reasonable big screen), so its energy requirements are not that big to begin with.
