Can you bear the Vision for 10 hours?

  Yes with the double strap. It’s not a fashion item, but when it’s tight enough the weight distributes very well. I have worked all day in it, then felt no hesitancy to watch Bladerunner 2049 in 3D on a “screen” large enough to feel like I was in the movie, and felt fine. (Tip: Max the angular screen size to most of your field of view. Then adjust the amount of 3D effect to be completely natural by adjusting the screen distance, eliminating the typical 3D uncanny valley. You have it right when your brain suddenly stops paying attention to the 3D aspect because it’s so ordinary. But subconsciously the world is real and you are in it.) With the fancier strap I felt face & cheek pressure right away, and face fatigue in a couple hours The change has had other wins. Putting screens anywhere, at true eye level, and only needing a wireless keyboard/trackpad, let’s me sit back in a padded office chair, work on a couch, etc avoiding static position stress and eliminate any tendency to hunch over my laptop Another interesting oddity is when you lean into a screen, or walk up to it, the resolution effectively keeps up. So inches away from a 100 inch screen, the large letters in front of you still look near perfect, without pixelation (still max out the actual in-headset resolution). I experience the headset as a big mental & physical ergonomic upgrade for the Mac, with the VR/AR features simply being interesting side benefits I recommend it highly in those terms

    Second this. This has been exactly my experience. I enjoy it, and feel it’s a net win for me despite all the tradeoffs (comfort, text sharpness, battery life). Selective passthrough for objects like a cup and keyboard would be really great.
