its weight is around the same as Oculus(Meta) Quest 2 And people have been using Quest 2 for hours, there are even some headstrap+power bank accessories for that too Quest 2 (503g) lasts 2+ hours BoboVR B2 battery (140g) last 2+ hours So people have been using 650g headset for hours normally before
Also, motorcycle helmet weight 1500g Safety helmet Weight 200-600g So I think the weight is not the problem, just they aren't used to that
No this is wrong the difference between 500g headsets used for short bursts of gaming and 650g headsets requiring additional battery packs makes quite a difference and a lit of the weights influence comes through distribution and needed movement a motorcyclist ist wearing the helmet to do office work and dissent have the weight focused on the front of their face
