If needing to be tethered, Apple Vision Pro should’ve put more of the compute in the battery pack.

Sure there are latency concerns, but Goggles should be “lite”, more “heavy” compute with the battery pack.

Also seems redundant walking around with iPhone and Vision Pro battery pack. Future Vision Pros should be powered by iPhone Pro or MacBook Pro, with limited R1 chipset embedded in Goggles

I hope they release a version with minimal onboard compute, no AR or fancy gizmos, just a basic gyro for stabilization. I'd only use it tethered to the Mac as a wearable usb c screen. But I guess that's not their vision...
