    I wasn't sure about the Pico 4 as I already had a Meta Quest 2 but in the end I decided to take the plunge, I'm so glad I did as it's so much better than my Quest 2 which I have just sold 👍

      Overall, Pico 4 is like a Q2 but with upgrades to the comfort, FOV and resolution that you do appreciate. So for all PCVR gaming and sim racing, it's the better option.

      I assume higher resolution would mean more GPU power needed

    The streaming assistant of the pico 4 is not as good for PCVR as the virtual desktop app is now. With virtual desktop you can still get a lot out graphically compared to the streaming assistant.

      Your Quest games won't be accessible on the Pico, so that is an issue if you have lots of games. Otherwise, the Pico is the better headset.

      @30minVR  Рік тому

      Appears to be some good improvements; pancake lenses, resolution bump, increased performance. Hoping for a FOV that matches the Pico 4. The Q3 elasticated cheap headstrap is a disappointment (as it is with the Q2), which means the battery is in the front, so it's front heavy.

  • @ProgrammistMusic

    i am using the Pico 4 all the time for PCVR and it's a better experience compared to Quest 2 in terms of visuals and comfort. I changed the headstrap of the Quest 2 and it's fairly comfortable now, although i also had to exchange the facial interface of the Pico 4 too, since the included one is way too stiff and does not get me as close to the lenses as i want. Nevertheless, the Pico 4 does not have 60Hz and 120Hz, which is very usefeul for recording videos and also playing back VR clips. On the standalone front, the Quest 2 is much better for several reasons. The firmware is better and the games run smoother on the Quest 2. I am playing First Person Tennis a lot and although the APKs are basically the same, it runs much better on Quest 2 in addition to the fact that i can play at 120Hz, which makes a huge difference for those type of games. I am looking forward to the Quest 3 now, which may replace my Pico 4 in a couple of weeks.

      Sorry for my bad English,
      what I wanted to say is rather, is the Pico 4 as greedy as the Quest 2 is by default? Because the Quest 2 even with a mediocre quality I find that it requires too many resources.
      I have a 3070.

      @@GioKl-vr2juin PCVR mode the headset itself does not make any difference in terms of headset performance, since the power needs to be on the PC side. The higher the resolution and refresh rate the more power the PC needs to have.
      I also have a RTX 3070 and i can play some games at the highest possible resolution, but sometimes have to enable frame generation (with SSW using Virtual Desktop) to get at least stable 72fps. I also use DLSS when possible, e.g. in No Man's Sky.
