All you need to work in VR
HTC’s previous standalone headsets used Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 – Qualcomm’s 2017 flagship.
Vive Focus 3 makes the 3-generation jump to Snapdragon XR2, also seen in Facebook’s Oculus Quest 2. It’s a variant of the 865 designed specifically for headsets.
The headset’s battery is located in the rear section rather than in the front. That should mean a less heavy feeling headset with more balanced weight distribution.
The battery is removable, enabling businesses with a spare battery to use the headset all day with only seconds of downtime.
Visible LEDs on the back let you see how much battery is left without needing to put on the headset. HTC says it supports fast charging, going from 0% to 50% in 30 minutes.
Unlike most other VR controllers, the battery is not removable. Each controller is charged via the USB-C port at the bottom. HTC claims 15 hours of battery life.
