DragonMaster69420 pico 4 picture quality is....odd....i can't really put my finger on it yet, feels like i can "see around or in between the pixels"

Found this on reddit

"Check if your pico is from the QC Pass 2022.09 people have reported that this batch might have some problems with the lenses that cause waviness."

    YEP, they finally made me update the acct to META acct...no FB acct though. 1/1/23 for my lowly Q1

    still waiting on something good...not sure it will come before i kick the bucket

    Q3 could be good, but i hear the specs are not that great on it already and it's a frigging year away almost

    apple? with the dual 4k lenses could be good, but WHEN?

    i did learn a NEW feature on the Q1 - when looking at webpages, you can hit the three dots on the top right and make the page bigger. that helps for the reading 🙂

    i'm a little slow🙂

    started watching REGULAR shows on it...netflix is pretty good, prime is better. will hook up hulu a little later

      I am new to VR world. I bought Pico 4 last dec. So far I am happy using PICO with SLR. When will the deovr be available for Pico? Now I have to download videos to enjoy

        Polar

        Is it/will it be available for the HTC Vive XR Elite? Tempted but it’s no good without Deo 🙂

          Yall ever heard of Newegg, they selling pico 4 global version, anyone know if this site good to order from.

          Man, I'm planning on a pico 4, but ffs I need a warranty to go with it, idk if a warranty is granted since I'd be ordering from the US. 😒 🤦‍♂️

          Pico 4 users, how the pico 4 doing for yall sofar since yall got it?

          I'm particularly interested in the pass-through mode with "The PornaVRse🌌

          I'm thinking about buying the pico 4, from what I've heard, the fov is as good or better than the Index if you remove the face pad. An aftermath face pad is going to take this headset to the next level.

          Anyone know if passthrough works with pc link? I know for the quest 2, the option is there but it doesn't do anything....

            alibaba I have both an index and a pico 4. Index fov is definitely better even with the absolute minimum of eye relief on the pico. It's fine though especially for the price.

                alibaba yes, did quite a bit of experimenting (even measured it in test hmd) and the fov can be improved quite a bit. Just not to index levels.

                  it sounds weird but i want try and experiment with some color filter for passthrough...

                  is it possible to turn the color passthrough of pico 4 into black-white filter ?

                  there must be probably a way to change color of pico 4 passthrough and like put an filter on ?

                  i think same already exist for quest 2 but i don't saw something similar for pico 4 where i can change color of passthrough...

                  needs this to be done in unity ? if yes...someone know how ? can give tutorial ?

                    dudu32 it sounds weird but i want try and experiment with some color filter for passthrough...

                    is it possible to turn the color passthrough of pico 4 into black-white filter ?

                    It's not weird G, I thought about that while haf in q2, cuz I like to put effects like color and sharpen alot, i call it "remixing on the fly" wish deo had sum effectts to add, like echo, and a automatic hue color changing, but in pass-through the Grey background adds an effect too, so I thought fuc, a color pass-through just gonna be regular color in the new head sets but it would be cool it has filter options, options like color filters and effects, make your environment wobbly or blurry like a drunk effect. 🥴

                    But yeah, color filters would be cool. 👍

                      this some offtopic but might be interesting for those who like virtamate...

                      just saw on youtube that alxr seems to be working now with pico neo 3 and pico 4 and passthrough:
                      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMe-xes5B1w&ab_channel=%E3%82%B3%E3%83%AC%E3%83%82%E3%83%A3%E3%83%B3

                      with that info...
                      probably it's possible now to do virtamate in passthrough on pico 4 but sadly i don't find any example clips which shows it...and on virtamate forums no one talk about this...=/

                      https://github-wiki-see.page/m/korejan/ALVR/wiki/ALXR-Client
                      here it says that pico 4 supported and is listed...

                      https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/green-screen-passthrough-alxr-client-alvr-apk-for-quest-2.26502/#lg=1&slide=0
                      this how it looks on quest 2 and it's nice too.

                      can someone confirm if it is already possible to do that on pico 4 ? ^^

                      I'm curious 🤔

                      If pico works off Android, right?
                      Is there a way to get deo pico version to work on Android phones with the color pass-through 🤔

                      I still have a s7 and gearvr, was trying to install deo pico but no score, smh can't believe Samsung s7 pass through has better pt color then a quest 2, smh

                      Gotta be a way to get the new deo to work on androids...

                      Lol my version on my s7 is deo 8.3 version

                      Man them picos selling like hot cakes, out of stock at uk Amazon and at newegg the global 128g is out of stock.

                      mnmlikereal yeah man, I'm real close to pulling the trigger and order it.

                      But zucky talking bout q3 will focus more on their "meta reality" I'm guessing more " ar" "mixed reality" pass through" so idk 🤷‍♂️ sounds interesting 🤔

                          rerun119 buy it then in a year buy the q3

                          Man G, I thought about that tooooo, 😂

                          I also thought I should just buy the pico cuz these days, a hole lot can happen in a year.
