Microsoft HoloLens to work for up to 5.5 hours on a single charge

Filling in the blanks for the things we don’t know about Microsoft’s virtual reality headset, HoloLens, we now get information on battery life, connectivity options, and app compatibility.  Microsoft Technical Evangelist Bruce Harris said at an event in Tel Aviv that the battery life of the VR headset runs between 2.5 and 5.5 hours per charge and depending on the task at hand. It’ll also be able to connect to almost all Wi-Fi or Bluetooth-enabled device. And it can also run any universal Windows 10 app. Its viewable area will be similar in size to what you can expect if you held a 15-inch screen two feet from your face. And while you might want to test these out for yourself, there might still be a while until you can get your hands on it. Developer kits are expected to arrive sometime during the first quarter of this year.
