I honestly couldn't get used to the weight. 9-5, a nice big monitor won out every time.

There's something to this AR XR stuff but even with infinite resources the convenience just isn't there for all day use for me.

With the inability to counter-balance, with soft straps, I I really wish they would get rid of the metal, glass, and silly front screen. For comparison, Quest 3, with integrated battery, is almost 20% lighter and is possible to counter balance (hard strap), which I think is more important than weight (near zero force on the flesh of my face).

It has comparable PPD, at the center, so works just as well for using as windows/mac virtual screen (mac being my main use case).
