Eh, rumors are the battery life will be low for the Frame. So, this addresses that.

Sounds like a worthwhile tradeoff for something you're strapping to your face and therefore want to be as light as possible.

Weight distribution is more important - many put a battery pack on the back headrest to offset the weight of the main body. Makes it a lot more comfortable for longer sessions or fast movement.
