These have a *WIRED* USB-C connection. Seems like a very 1990s form factor to have a wire running from glasses to phone.

Congrats to @VodafoneGroup for launch of Nreal Light glasses with @Qualcomm powered smartphones! Huge validation for #XR in Europe. List of target use cases looks great! Can't wait for Spring 2021! Congratulations @chimtx and @nreal! #5G @Qualcomm_EU vodafone.com/news-and-media/…

I wonder if it is because it would be too heavy with a battery and Bluetooth chipset/antenna? Or the battery wouldn’t last long enough for using it for work? Upside is less attack surface.

Definitely an upside in that way - but I can’t imagine ever wearing them

With or without a cable, it’s unlikely I’d wear one either, but then again, I don’t wear a (smart)watch, Fitbit, or jewelry, so I’m clearly not the target audience.
