No, I’d keep them on all of the time. They would be like AirPods. I’d only take them off in particular situations.

In my case I bike a lot so they’d be doubly useful assuming latency is very low.

Comparing them to AirPods really painted the picture for me. In that case, I feel they'd have to be smaller, or at least lighter. I haven't tried it so I can't say that with certainty but this is probably the start of something very interesting. It's basically a wearable.

It would need to be extremely reliable also. Imagine crossing the road and your vision just randomly freezes. I'd assume it would be so disorienting that you'd immediately lose balance and fall over.

People may get seriously injured if they're actually wearing these things all the time. Even if they're 100% reliable you could imagine someone getting a low battery warning running down stairs to fetch their charing cable only for their vision to shut off as they're running down the stairs...

100% agree. Apple actually says a few times during the setup not to use it outside.

Even if small and light I doubt that they’d ever change that messaging.

Having a safety HUD, like in a fighter jet but on a bike, would be pretty cool. It can warn me about cars I missed, or someone about to open a door, or a turn I'm about to miss.

Or, you know, this being the shitty dystopia we deserve, probably it'd just advertise the nearest McDonald's.

Why would you need to take it off? Assuming you’re in the iOS ecosystem, the majority of your apps are on the headset.

If you get a notification, you can respond straight from it.

You can also see your phone through it too to respond.

I mean, reason number one is not looking like a complete dork in public...

Irrelevant to the discussion at hand and a complete non-sequitur

At a certain point, it'll normalize. Looking at a small screen (laptop) is as weird if you don't know what a laptop is.

Because your interacting with people in the real world and they want to see your face?
