App for Samsung XR headset?

Picouser

I appreciate your Samsung XR reviews. Keep them coming. There are already lots of reviews, but of course they are about "general use". There is no comments concerning VR porn and how it works, is it better than using Quest 3. That is what I want to know 🙂

Waiting to see if Unreal Engine will add support for android xr (after few months) so we might get HereSphere to do the job.

Picouser np man. Ill post any meaningful updates to my opinion of the thing.
I think controllers will make a big difference, if I only used my q3 with hand tracking, I would hate it.

The Samsung XR hand tracking is on point, it knows what im pointing at, but the pinch to actually click on it is finicky. And I don't like the animated hands as it tracks, once I did get it to play 180sbs 3d i didn't like seeing my hands... I wouldn't want to see digital hands every time I grab my vape or adjust the monitor arm that holds my SR6 etc etc.

I have a suspicion that a dedicated 180sbs 3d player is what's needed for this thing to shine for VR porn. Most of the apps in Google play are cardboard apps. So I would suspect that having all the lil adjustments that skybox or deovr has would make a world of difference.

So far nothing about the processor feels "slow", and the battery charged up quick. I put the headset on with 17%, and had 100% battery before I knew it while using it. My q3 charges slowwwww or just "dies slower" if I use it while plugged in.

Also noticed that this Samsung doesn't fog up like my q3 does

Reeses dedicated 180sbs 3d player

Is there an equivalent to the Meta browser in which the SLR hub works? Did you try that? I understand the hub in Safari was what people were using right after AVP became available.

Reeses

SchnuppiLilac I will check that out this evening, it's native browser is Samsung internet and Google chrome I believe. What were the avp folks doing? Going to deovr.com or slr.com?

How the FOV and binocular vision in compared to quest 3
Most important factor for watch

Reeses

Mandr like I said earlier, there isn't much of a way to tell just yet due to lack of a decent video player. Just navigating the native menus with pass through on so I can see my living room, I don't notice anything that feels like tunnel vision. I can see my doggo in what would be my peripheral, in the headset, without having to turn my head and scan the room.

On that note, pass through is decent. I can read/use my phone with the headset on.

Mandr It depends on how close you can get to the displays. So that's why we need after market mods, which surely will come. But reports seem to vary between quest 3 like and Index like FoV. So between 'average' and 'pretty good'. And binocular overlap has been tauted as good by pretty much all reviewers, at least the ones I've read.

Yeah try playing sexlikereal.com in a browser window and see if you can just play things that way. That works on the AVP.

Reeses Nah I just use the normal website, so sexlikereal.com in Safari on my AVP.

Of course the XR headset only just launched so on the one hand it's indeed possible that there's no good player yet. But since it runs android and you can even sideload APK's, I'm sure it won't take long before a developer just adds SBS to his Android player.

Reeses

SchnuppiLilac oh man. Does that link work for you? On my phone just now It takes me to the locked down, view nothing, click here to log in page. And just like last night on my phone, laptop, and q3, my credentials+log in pops an error message with "something went wrong, please try again later." 😂

harigeharry

Reeses On my AVP when I click login on my AVP, it shows a number that I need to enter in my pc at https://www.sexlikereal.com/code. When I do that it then just is logged into my AVP

It's very possible that it wont work though right now. It took a while before they got it going for the AVP. I wouldnt be surprised if they needed to change some things to make it work with the XR.

BTW, DeoVR is coming to the XR: https://forum.deovr.com/d/10418-android-xr-support-samsung-galaxy-xr

But there's no timeline yet so who knows how long it will take ... But I'm sure they'll first focus on getting the web player to work.

Reeses

So I did try sexlikereal.com in the Samsung browser and chrome on the headset, it just plays 2d, like it would on my cell phone. Go full screen and it has an option for "launch in VR" click that and it just says "launch in safari or meta browser".

So at this juncture, for VR porn, the Samsung xr is just a paperweight. But like you say, deo says they're working on it.

Reeses So, I’m watching a YouTube video where the dude downloaded a few movie trailers. He then opens the MyGallery app and selects his video. From there, he selects immersive mode in the top right which takes him to a screen that has a button labeled “2D” towards the bottom left. He clicks on it and VR180 is an option. Granted, he is not playing a VR180 video, just a standard 3D. But, that should work, right? The link is below. It’s around the 12:30 mark.

SchnuppiLilac

Reeses Have you tried https://www.sexlikereal.com/hub also? Probably doesn't work either but just to have confirmation.

SchnuppiLilac

Reeses I have been using Mobile VR Station for iOS before I had a proper headset. It's available in Google Play, so maybe worth a try. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mgatelabs.mobilevrstation

You can also still find an apk for DeoVR 10.1 for Android if you google it.

Kieshi

Reeses hi, could you try to access the Hub in browser directly by going to sexlikereal.com/hub?

Also, if you are willing, we would appreciate that you send me in DM your user agent that you can find here https://whatmyuseragent.com/?

blaze466

blaze466 Nevermind. I reread your original thread and realized you already tried that.

I'm definitely going to buy it. I'm always impressed when I use SLR+handy with my Quest 3, and after a quick search on GPT, I discovered that combining everything — resolution, passthrough, and OLED — the image quality of the Samsung XR is almost 300%+ better than the Q3, which is incredible and crazy to imagine, because for me the Quest 3 is already so good and so immersive. I can't wait to watch porn on the Samsung XR.

Reeses

blaze466 yeaaah. It does open up and play. But think deovr, zoomed way out to 60%, and pitch angle is set straight forward and none adjustable, and "height " is set +25%. So it is 3d 180 sbs. Just not at all immersive. If i were to set my q3 to similar settings to do a side by side, I would say the xr is way more clear though

SchnuppiLilac

Skybox will have an internal discussion about this matter.
