I can't tell if this is a good idea or a bad idea. Probably a bad idea at that price point with those specs, but this seems like a much more usable and useful form factor than a fully head mounted system when you factor in the weight of the thing on your head and the input method. Like, I might actually be able to do work on this thing unlike an apple vision pro.
It's a bad idea because you can get a regular laptop and AR glasses just as light as those. Check nreal, rokid...
This way you can use the laptop as a regular laptop and the glasses with other devices.
