    The beauty of a Standalone headset that can do much more than just VR gaming

  • @Martin-el5uu

    One cool thing with having Netflix in the browser and having the UA-cam app on the Q3 is that you can watch movies and videos in ANY environment, I have watched Netflix within my favorite games like a base in No Mans Sky, the apartment in Half Life Alyx, the penthouse in Hubris and favorite worlds in VR chat. Any place can turn into your personal cinema 😁

      @@jeffreyschmidt3997 Absolutely, regardless of whether I'm running a game directly from the Quest 3 or the PCVR, if I press the menu button (the one on the right controller) where I can select apps or end the one that's running. There I can select UA-cam or, for example, Meta's built-in browser and select Netflix. You can't move while watching, however, but it's perfectly possible to start up multiple screens just as if you were in Meta's home environment in any game. Hope that clarified a bit.

      @@roozbehabbasi2497 On quest 3 the screen resolution is pretty good, the pixels are only really noticeable when looking at an area with only one color or relatively small text and the lenses are great so movie subtitles are perfectly fine.
      On quest 2/3S the screen is only slightly less good so subtitles are still big enough to be easy to read but the smaller sweet spot of the lenses makes the sides of the virtual screen a bit blurry so watching movies with subtitles is definitely possible but it's more comfortable without :)

    I agree for the Quest 3 but the Quest 3S has such a narrow sweetspot that watching movies (especially with subtitles) and anything to do with remote desktop work is honestly somewhere between not enjoyable and awful. With some VR headsets I feel like it was in the early days of Android, when reviewers just chose to ignore the bad performance and constant stutter. With VR Headsets, they chose to keep the issue of the super narrow sweetspot from potential buyers and I think that's is not a good way to do reviews.

    • @03chrisv
      @03chrisv 2 місяці тому +2

      The Quest 3 has a significantly higher display PPI and better lenses than the Quest 3s, it's just to be expected. Though for the price the 3s isn't bad for gaming, though for movie watching and productivity, the regular 3 is far better.

    • @Jutsch80HD
      @Jutsch80HD 2 місяці тому +3

      it’s 90% the lenses that make the difference. If you put pancake lenses on the Quest 3S, basically no one could tell the difference in resolution without seeing them side by side

      @@bruceatkinson6438 Defending an obvious flaw in a technology by blaming the user is something I never understood why some tech people tend to do that. I have adjusted it perfectly, thank you. The middle of my vision is very clear but as you know the sweetspot on VR goggles with fresnel lenses is super narrow which makes them not good devices for any application in which one would prefer having a whole screen sharp instead of only a tiny spot where they had to move their head all the time. That makes those lenses suck for movies and productivity. Like on a movie I have my eyes on the middle of the screen in look at the subtitles with peripheral vision at best. That doesn't work if that vision is blurry.

    • @Jutsch80HD
      @Jutsch80HD Місяць тому

      the PSVR2 uses the same type of lenses as the Quest 3S. So same narrow sweet spot. I’d go for anything with pancake lenses, like the Quest 3. Plus, I think a standalone headset is much preferred against something bound to a console or PC

      Quest 2 and quest 3s are very good options if you want to start, could be times that you leave the quest on a shelf for a time, and grab it and continue the cycle. That happen with quest 3. Pretty common. Also you may need spend an extra for a strap (bobovr makes some of the best) and a battery expansion. I can extend the battery life on quest 2 up to 6 hours with 2 bobovr batt with the M2 pro (old version) the new one and better is the S3 pro.

      @@danieldani5922 I have quest 3 and 65" mini LED TV. My mini LED TV blows the quest 3 out of the water. Quest 3 looks grainy, no hdr, not vivid as a real TV.

    Bad video as it might mislead someone into buying a VR headset specifically to watch movies and video. The best VR goggles on the planet don't come even remotely close to a real display in terms of image quality.

    Sorry but this video is pretty much bullshit as netflix is the only really usable streaming service you can use from the browser as all the the other ones limit teh streaming resolution to point where it just hurts to watch it, the new amazon prime app is noticely better then the browser one and still only supports 720p which if you want to watch it on a big screen is not enough and looks bad, its even worse for disney plus, as they dont have an app and the broser restricts the resolution to an unwatchable level.
    So watching Movies on Quest is possible with decent or at least decent enough quality but with netflix as the only exeption its not an easy solution!
    The best ways are something like a fire tv stick using HDMI Link, or Ripped BluRays...

      Haha that might be the case with some but Netflix, prime, Disney+ and UA-cam all worked for me perfectly. I can not speak for USA streaming services as I can not try from the UK.
