i found a little quest fan club obviously.
There is alot of your facts that are very "opinionated" and not really based in any object reality, some people prefer fresnel some people prefer pancake lens, they both have positives and negatives.
i never said it was the best there is... please do quote me sayin it is THE BEST THERE IS. Im not over selling it plus all your points are silly because i am talking purely PCVR... PCVR... as in plug your VR into your PC... MR and wifi and all those silly things you mention have nothing to do with PCVR. In terms of Using a headset to play Half life alyx for example the PSVR2 will be the better choice if you value image/framerate and FOV. they aren't identical PSVRs FOV is 110 diagonally while quest 3s is horizontallly and i don't know about 120hz now but when it released the quest 3 was in an experimental state and that is why they essentially said 90 was standard at releases.
depends what your definition is on clarity. then yes the quest 3 has a slightly higher resolution per eye. slightly.
if you are talking about literal in game rendering then again you are a chop because we are talking about using the headset as a standalone PCVR headset. your PC will be doing the heavy lifting
- Sorry, but there's absolutely no opinion about it, the Quest 3 uses the same type of pancake lens as the AVP. Pancake is miles clearer than frensel. Literally every single review will state this.
- Other people in this thread claimed the PSVR2 is the best headset on the market (or would be if it had PC support).
- MR effects games that use MR obviously.
- None of my facts are opinions, break any down if you feel like.
- I have both headsets - the FOV doesn't feel different to me. I do use the quest 3 on the closet setting of the adjustable slider on the headset for lens depth, so I will concede at default there's probably a slight difference.
- Clarity is just how close the image looks to the source. PSVR2 cannot show anything resembling accurate detail near the edges due to distortion, godrays, and general lack of focus. Pancake/Quest 3 is edge to edge clarity. Tiny text is readable in the entire FOV, where the PSVR2 it is not. So if you open a web browser or try to use a PC for PC stuff in the headset, PSVR2 will be way, way worse.
Again I do not believe a game rendering on PSVR2 vs Quest 3 from the same PC is given the PSVR2 will be the winner. Quest 3 is clearer, it has significantly less image retention, and it has way less mura. PSVR2 has better blacks for sure, but that's somewhat compromised by the mura, and the colors are better, but IMO that's compromised by the edge to edge clarity from the lens.
Regardless, I own both headsets, so seeing for myself won't exactly be anything hard to discover.
