The really cool thing about the exchangeable lenses is that you get a bump in pixels per degree that doesn't require developers to modify their software.
Varjo's first VR headset had the micro OLED overlaid on a standard VR OLED screen to get retina resolution in one part of the fov, but it would only work with specific demos.
Being able to swap from 50 to 57 PPD means all your software will be at near retina level. The only change a developer might want to make is a high-definition texture pack, and that's a lot easier to do
57 is a good number because it's just 3 Pixel Shy of 60 PPD. The original crystal didn't have enough resolution to make the exchangeable lens valuable because it traded too much field of view to get not enough resolution.
57 pixels per degree is more resolution then an hmz T1 or a rokid Max, but it will be over a normal VR standard fov.
If you want to watch a movie, or actually work in VR, it will have as much resolution as any monitor does.
On any software without developers needing to do anything.
That's what makes the exchangeable lenses cool, not to mention being able to get a replacement set if they get damaged.
The exchangeable optical and display engine is totally cool for very similar reasons.
It is cool and all, and of course the whole other thing of swapping out OLED for QLED is awesome, it's just hard to imagine how much of a jump 50 to 57 will be when 50 is already very high (considering the Crystal is already 35).
Excellent reaction video. Really enjoyed it. Well done!
I own the quest 3 and the current Crystal and the Quest 3 doesn't even come close
No of course, hence the cost, but the Quest does have better lenses though. Imagine the Crystal Super has the edge to edge clarity of the Quest 3/Pro lenses...
They mentioned in the presentation that specifically the Light was NOT in the 12K trade-in program. They did not mention anything for the Super, so interpret that any way you want. I'm still holding on to my old 5K+ for the trade-in, but who knows what happens in the future.
Yeah assumed light wouldn't be, but wasn't sure on the Super and that graphic about it doesn't help. Couldn't get on their site to check, was down or over run lol.
Well the Crystal light VR headsets sound pretty good, but I will wait till actual units get out to the video reviewers and users to see what they think of the final product. Are they as good as advertised on paper, we shall see. I may get one of these light headsets further down the road and once all the bugs and issues are fixed, if any.
Now, no matter how good these 2 VR headsets are, i still won't be able to push them to the limits since I only have a RTX-3080TI GFX card for SIM racing games. i don't do flight SIM games.
I would have to turn down the resolutions of the unit, though to make it work. There are a couple of videos I watched with people using the Regular Crystal headset with a 3080 card and seemed to work for them with some setting changes.
So just waiting for units to be reviewed in the near future.
Take care.
Yeah waiting until they are out in the wild is for sure then sensible choice. To be fair, with the Crystal (which I still need to review), I haven't had a single issue with hardware or software ever.
The good thing about headsets having a higher PPD now is of course that you can lower the resolution but still have an amazing SDE free image, knowing that you have plenty of room to increase it if/when you upgrade your GPU :)
@@AdamsSIMporium Thanks for your reply and information. take care
Crystal light seems petty good !
It does, looks to be a good upgrade path for many people.
@@AdamsSIMporium I am still on a quest 1 holding out for an index 2 lol. The light seems to tick all the boxes.
@@02semiata yeh I think you're the market it's intended for, and they are actually getting it just right. Still, they have to complicate things with two models depending if you want local dimming or not, but Pimax is gonna Pimax
super qled seems the best. not sure about the micro oled. a future version of the bigscreen with 4k micro oled would probably be about the same except for a much smaller package, thus much superior. im thinking if you're gonna go with a bulky headset like a pimax, the qled with the significantly larger fov makes more sense to me. sure seems interesting
I guess it depends on what the actual real world FOV difference turns out to be.
