The rig even has an external battery pack that can slip into your pocket.
Samsungs gadget has made some improvements to Apples design.
The headset is also much more comfortable, according to Brownlee.

Gemini exists on the top bar of the app menu and is accessible with a pinch.

This version, however, also works directly with the headsets passthrough capabilities.
