system, MSI VR One is even lighter than some performance gaming notebooks. The
design is more compact and the performance is even better than any other
similar products. Moreover, it is more convenient thanks to the the longevity
of its battery life and the non-stop hot swap design. You may play hours of VR
games non-stop. For B to B business or VR developpers, the portability and the
mobility of MSI VR One is the best solution both for the limitedless VR
environment possibilities and the VR content demonstration all around the
world.
The “VR One”
is designed for highest VR HMD mobility, therefore it comes with unique design
of 2 hot-swappable batteries. It also comes with battery indicators: each
battery’s life is illuminated through 4 white lights located next to the mount.
4 lights illuminating means the battery life is 75%~100%; 3 lights means it’s
50%~75%; 2 lights means it’s 25%~50%; 1 light means it’s under 25%. The last
light will be flashing to remind users that the battery may run out of power
within a short time. When users want to hot-swap a battery they can swap one at
a time without using an adaptor. However, if users plug in the adaptor, they
can remove both batteries simultaneously while VR One will still keep the same
high performance for VR experience or other type of heavy loading gaming as an
ultra slim PC.
