Snap's AR Glasses: More Compute Power, But What About User Experience?

Last week, while tuning an operator, Snap's solution suddenly popped into my head, giving me a bit of a jolt. $2,195, 132 grams, dual Qualcomm processors, proprietary LCoS display, 51-degree field of view, 4-hour battery life—the specs are pretty aggressive, but the problems are also obvious: Can this weight and battery life sustain daily wear?

132 grams presses on the brow after just half an hour... I believe these specs. I've tried several prototype units before; anything over 100g is truly unbearable. Cooling relies on passive methods; no matter how strong the compute power, it's useless if thermal throttling kicks in. Opening bullet screen mode probably causes immediate downclocking...
