Pico 4

Anton Sure - you could sell the Q2

Nah, ima keep the q2, but I'm thinking about getting the pico, just gotta save up a Lil 👍

I'm almost for sure the q3 gonna be more then 400$ or more
At 380$ that pico looks like a good deal. 👍

I've seen sum pass-through on YouTube, looks good but I'm curious about the pass-through used with vrp.

Vrsumo2017 As much as you talk about passthrough on all the sites we all know you are going to get the pico 4.

Vrsumo2017

rerun119 hell yeah, that pt is something else 👍🥵

Just checked the PICO 4 and it's quite good. For now you can sideload DeoVR using sidequest and its working fine. Passthrough is a bit different maybe in a better way since its monoscopic
The colorful see through is vivid and as sharp as on Quest Pro and MAYBE even a little better or at least as good as.
Note that this is my personal experience and yours might be completely different.

I have a Pimax 8kx, Pico 4 and Valve Index. Pico 4 is pretty nice: lightweight, nice passthrough, no hassle (wireless, no pc) and Deovr's streaming is way faster at seeking than on pc for some reason. Still even though the pico should have the same amount of pixels vertically it looks noticeably lower res to me than on the Pimax 8kx (I wonder if DeoVr is using the native resolution of the pico 4?).
As far as the FOV goes it kinda sucks. It's a really big downgrade in terms of experience compared to the 8kx and even a noticeable downgrade from the index (I guess a custom face gasket could help a little since really pushing the headset to your face makes the FOV a little better).
Still, I think the Pimax 8kx remains the best headset for porn by quite a big margin at this moment (even with the Pimax experience...). Just wish it was Valve or something that made these high res headsets and that there was a good passthrough. Maybe, the Deckard...

I read something that the Pico 4's chip, Qualcomm Snapdradon XR2, can't play 8K natively. Therefore, the image is probably scaled up. But also good, the resolution is higher and pixels are not visible.
Passthrough looks good on the Pico 4. I'd love to upload a video, but then I'd have to clean my place first.
My dick looks bigger in VR passthrough.

fenderwq I also have a Pimax 8K X. Everybody talks about the best headset but if they don't say that the 8KX then it's cause they have never tried one. It is light years ahead of the Q2.

Fenderwq are you going to trade in for the 12K?

Passthrough hack with Pico 4.
I just tried to remove the faceplate to see if I can get a better FOV and although it does slightly, the biggest win was the immersion. Having no top, side or bottom makes it feel like you are just wearing a pair of big heavy sunglasses. But the experience is even more amazing when watching a video in Passthrough mode. It feels even more like the subject is in your room. Now it’s a matter of removing everything as far as background etc in a clean way to not distract from the immersion. I mentioned this in separate thread but I really think SLR should separate videos exclusively to play in Passthrough.

Stefan23121 it's upscaled? Well that would explain it, thanks

i download some 8k clips and noticed that in deovr it looks some better than the picos player...
and the passthrough clips even better...

im wondering if it is possible just to change and replace the 16megapixel camera with some higher megapixel and get so higher resolution ? would passthrough quality get even better ? would that work ?

the picos passthrough is not bad but there much space to improve when it comes to resolution and quality and light...i believe the 16megapixel just not enough for that...

or im wrong about that ? and 16 megapixel are enough ?

Vrsumo2017

Yeah, I'm just gonna get it cuz that price is to good to pass up. 👍

rerun119 Have been waiting for that one for a long time and it should have actually been released by now. The trade in deal is pretty sweet so was looking forward to the upgrade.
Still it seems they have gotten distracted by the crystal and than the frontier. As the crystal is set to launch somewhere in March now and the 12k will likely launch months after that as it's "70% done" according to Pimax.
Well have to see what happens in the meantime. Would be great to get the visual bump due to better lenses and higher resolution. Maybe they even have a half decent MR faceplate by then.
I wonder how much sharper of an image we can get from the 8kx to the 12k for video (the maximum decodable resolution being 8192x8192 for even the rtx 4090) but I'm hopeful.
So yeah, I'll likely upgrade.

rerun119

fenderwq I had read somewhere that Pimax was going to make the 12K work on their own site instead of steam. That scares me if that is true. The up side to the 12K is that it is going to have passthrough.

If Vrsumo2017 ever tried the 12K with color passthrough he would lose his mind

Vrsumo2017

rerun119 someone said 12k will be clearer then real life, lol

Vrsumo2017

dudu32 passthrough clips even bette

Explain?

Vrsumo2017

dudu32 the picos passthrough is not bad but there much space to improve when it comes to resolution and quality and light

Have you tried putting the pass-through on, and adjust the picture settings like brightness or sharpness, I was wondering if that would help blend the models into your real background environment?

dudu32

clips or girls looks better quality...

idk rly how to explain that but compared to normal vr 4k or 8k clips the passthrough clips and the girls in the passthrough mode just looks better...more detail...which results in more immersiveness and if use the hack by @alina with removed faceplate it even more better... ^^

if just the rbg camera would be same good quality like the girls then this would be just more amazing and mind blowing...

mnmlikereal The difference is the UK Value Added Tax, (V.A.T.) which you don't pay because you are in Canada. You will in all likelihood pay import/sales tax of some description at the other end.

on deovr : stereo video with ipened ui/ enable this ?
and can someone tell me the perfect settings for deovr. i have the pico 4 now 😃

czperv123

Guys, so it's possible to install deovr on Pico4 and use it to play videos from this website? If yes, can it be done without a PC? I don't have any USB-C connector on my computer. Is there APK to install directly on the headset? Thanks

dudu32

some say that pico store has deovr but if you can't find it there...

then use this method:

https://github.com/SideQuestVR/Lite/releases

you can type this this in pico browser...
then download from there "app-release.apk"
after install it and you have now sidequest on your pico 4.

then open the sidequest app and go to that link on pc or smartphone and type that code.
just follow what it says there...
account needed on sidequest.

after everything should work inside pico 4 and you can update sidequest from that sidequest app and download deovr and other stuff from there...

if install fails of an apk then just "allow install unknown apps" in that popup warning...
then just reopen sidequest and try download/install deovr again.

Thanks, exactly the info I was looking for. DeoVr sideloaded and working without having to connect Pico to the PC.
