The claimed "Up to 8 hours of battery for a full day of productivity." makes this a lot more useful for real work on the go verses the "up to two hours of general use, 2.5 hours of video playback" of the Vision Pro.

#23I would rather someone focuses on AR glasses that work really well and can work with my computer of choice.
The company (XREAL) behind the glasses they're using seems to be doing that. They have a USB-C version: https://developer.xreal.com/?lang=en

It looks like the glasses are actually manufactured by someone else, a company called XReal? I’m not sure if they’re related, but it looks like they’re not trying to invent two things at a time. Well, maybe the OS and the Laptop count

#25Learn about SpaceOS => Just goes to a page with no information on it... Is it a ChromiumOS fork or something? Seems to only mention web applications and the only visible screens are a browser window.
The icons look Android-y to me. I'm betting on Android.

#26Looks like the operating system is only for managing browser windows. There are no native apps of any kind. Plenty of great browser apps exist but that's worse than a chromebook in terms of usability.
Hell, it would be great if it where a Chromebook because they can run linux apps.

#27I love that in this kind of product's advertisement, people are so highly capable of touch-typing. The reality is that most people need to glance multiple times at their keyboards while using it. If these glasses make that a pain, I doubt that people would keep using the product.

#29The AR glasses themselves aren't their own design, according to this article in their press section. https://www.wired.com/story/sightful-spacetop-g1-augmented-r... They are made by a company called real https://www.xreal.com/ . Not familiar with them but the tech seems to be impressive.
I have an XReal Air 2. It's ok. Image can be blurry, especially near the corners. Field-of-view is pretty small. It's fine for watching videos or playing games but I wouldn't want to work on it.

Makes you wonder if they enhanced these specifically for this laptop?
Still all this is pretty cool. These are the sorta things I wish I had when I was 17 after watching Cowboy Bebop for the umpteenth time.
