Quest 3, the DPI looks somewhat similar to a non-retina Apple display.

It felt really futuristic to log into my office computer from a synthesized apartment via Virtual Desktop. The latency was fine for typing. Even YouTube video/audio was bearable. But the device itself is still too heavy. The fixed lens system can't be good for your eyes.

Apple Vision Pro is even heavier. Even as a hardcore VR fan I cannot imagine the current generation hardware to be useful in productivity tasks.

What is the main cause of the heavy weight? Battery? Auxiliary hardware?

I wonder if those could moved to some package attached to e.g. your waist and connected via cable. If done right it shouldn't be too irritating.
