Quest 3 announced

not a lot of time with it...some 2D sites like CB and cool lil JAV site are very good. interface with cb is better on resolution, but the interface of getting in and out of full screen is dumb...which you do to tip and chat, but it leaves the open window way off center, which needs immediate correcting each time. JAV site is great and no issues

hoping for controller control updates from this place

have apps like bigscreen...the sample/previews of 3d movie look very cool...which you can rent. kinda MAKES sense to watch REG 3d movies with a 700-dollar headset...it was probably possible on the other headsets also...while i have had bigscreen, i never used it from before.

Vrsumo2017 Standing doggy is always too high up and far away IMO. 90% of the pixels are devoted to the background and 10% to the woman's body. Starting the camera from a lower height would resolve this. The problem with trying to replicate a "real life distance" with the cam position is the actual effect isn't equivalent. It's more distant, like Im a 7 foot 8 NBA player without glasses having sex with a woman "way down there". Requiring a zoom-in, once again, ruins image quality, at least at the current 8k max.

The same concept above applies to standing missionary.

There also needs to be more ass closeups, eye level gaping shots during anal too down by her ass. And closeups at the end with the facials. The cum play example I always refer to as the gold standard is the Freya Von doom SLR 8k scene, but for whatever reason, they choose not to replicate that.

Overall, somehow flat porn has figured out a way to be dynamic and compelling, but most of VR misses this by its obsession with "accurate POV".

While I don't have as high of opinion of their video quality as I used to (its okay though), Czech VR probably does the best in terms of that dynamism and closeup thing I'm talking about.

doorsareopen You mention you're in the minority of those that prefer non POV. Well, I'm in your camp, and even if a minority, there's a lot of us and definately a market to be tapped.

I especially prefer non POV for gangbangs. To me, the holy grail would be to have a studio who does videos like analvids.com but in non POV VR. (Though I can do without a piss version like they have). So far the most promising on that crazy hardcore end would be Putalocura VR, and sometimes SinsVR or Realjam, when they decide to do it. The closest actual video I've seen to the above described analvids style would be the Billie Star gangbang.

Ventriloquist_Tacos yes, it is worth it without a doubt over the Quest 2

Here are some of the issues I encountered:

Negatives:
• The LCD screens have high resolution, but the darks are terrible, especially when watching cinema films.
• The desktop computer interface is unacceptable for a device that requires a desktop PC for most media (128 GB storage for most sales). VirtualDesktop shouldn't be an essential purchase for a device at this price point.
• The nose cover lets in too much light, which is completely unacceptable. The device doesn’t work well in the dark.
• There is no default video app of acceptable quality, forcing consumers to buy software for essential functions (SkyBox or HereSphere, since Deo doesn't support letterbox or multiple language tracks).
• No suitable web browser. Meta browser is covered with advertisements that cannot be removed. (Can side-load Chromium, but Firefox Reality is dead)
• The Quest 3 is very expensive relative to its benefits over other devices. I have a Quest 2 and Gear VR. Out of these three, the Gear VR is better suited for my usage in certain scenarios (OLEDs for watching films, lighter device, more storage for travel, longer battery life to watch a full 2 hour film; much more secure and private; 1 TB + of storage, for when I'm too lazy to activate AirLink).
• Additionally, further registration is required to make the product usable (developer option to remove the guardian assistant, install custom home environments, download free content, ADB removal of bloatware).

Despite these drawbacks, I still don't regret purchasing the Quest 3. Overall, it is a great piece of technology and worth considering if you want an immersive VR experience.

Heard the quest 3 lite will be with same lenses as q2, no color pass through, will come with no controllers but will have new chip as q3.

They say this it but not for sure.

But wtf, no color pass through? And same lenses as q2, my guess they just trying to get as much people to buy vr cuz they say it will 200 to 300$ its got the new chip, so probably at sum point q2 won't even be supported anymore.

Also I heard sum q3 users are saying they don't know if they got a defective pass through, I've notice some reviewers showing pass through look better then others, one video I saw guys pass through had a lot of grain.

Video q3 pt discussion

My guess, probably got tossed around maybe dropped during delivery.

Vrsumo2017 I heard otherwise, same crap fresnel lenses as Q2, but perhaps with better resolution panels.

I agree with Sadlyitsbradley (YouTube) take. Really boring and bad direction Meta is taking things, if true about releasing a Quest Lite and axing plans for a Pro 2 anytime soon. Bottom of the barrel experiences for children people have been having for years instead of releasing a Quest Pro 2 with OLED and high res.

Quest Pro 1 failed because of horrific marketing about using work apps, and for putting junky resolution LCD panels into a $1,500 HMD.

If Meta were smart and released a device that was actually high end and compelling, like a Quest Pro 2 with 4k per eye resolution uOLED panels and a nice chipset and form factor, people would actually start to see VR's potential. Even if they sold way less than the regular Quest series (which they would), it would give them competitive product presence at a higher tier and be a good "cheaper" alternative to Apples device. Even priced at say, $1,750, it would be half the cost.

As a Quest 3 fan, Meta sure manages to screw up product line decisions frequently which is why their VR division has lost billions of dollars. I want them to succeed.

Vrsumo2017 yeah I have returned it but will give it a few weeks and then but it again. Hopefully by that time amazon will have stocked up with a new batch. I'm a little disappointed to be honest as I think overall the performance uplift and sharpness are definitely worth the upgrade.

ernesto90354 Yeah, even if they drop the official Pro idea, where they are targeting that upper tier to compete with Apple I think they could release a mid tier called "Quest 3 Max" or "Quest 3 Ultra", have it be $999, with 2.5k+ per eye micro OLED (same cost and specs but better lenses and sweet spot than the Bigscreen Beyond, which failed in those respects). I'd buy that shit.

Does someone here maybe have a side by side comparison between Quest 3 DeoVR via Link/SteamVR and Quest 3 DeoVR native?

I always have had a sharper image with PC (with Quest 2 and Pro) and would be really curious if it's the same with the Quest 3 (:

Just received the quest 3 today, honestly, I'm very impress, video and passthrough. I'm coming from the pico 4 and quest 3 is def better than the pico 4 in both categories.

Bro, I think hand tracking has some potential. It can legitimately make passthrough even more immersive because your hands can be a part of the video. I was watching Kelsey Kane (Rest and Chill) when she was riding me reverse cowboy, using hand tracking. I was able to slap her ass or pretend to hold her ass with my hands. LOL.

I need to figure out how to get rid of that stupid light pointer coming out of my avatar hand; it completely kills the immersion. I was able to do it once

Honestly i envy this guy for the Passthrough quality of his Q3 unit ... mine never can get even close to that and still much more grainy and noisy even at better light conditions then his . Lucky man ! How about yours Quest 3 units Passthrough quality guys - share your opinions ?

boboweb mine never can get even close to that and still much more grainy

Man, that's what happen to me with the pico 4, I'd watch reviews on the pass through and the reviewers pt would look OK not as good as q3 I'd see now on YouTube but decent, but then when I got mine my shit looked grainger then theirs. Even with all my light on you could still see the grain.

But yeah, with the q3 pt reviews I've noticed sum pt looks better then others.

But I posted about this a few days ago

Meta be false advertising in their commercials

See this

This pic from a meta commercial and clearly low lighted in that room, where's the grain? Wheres the wraping?! Hell, low light like that with no grain with sum alpha production? Hell I'll take that! Take my money! But then I get home it grainy as fuck

Their quest pro too with their commercials ain't none of them avatars look or move like that, and I don't remember their commercials showing pt with gray overlap or warping.

They be false advertising!

Lol bet the q2 commercials never showed the blurry sweet spot or lens rings.

Look at that shit, hand over the virtual object

They be false advertising,

And these vr youtubers in there late 30s and up who got invited to meta to test it out kiss meta ass and do reviews on it and show off their special package their q3 came in, yeah the good headset I bet, probably better pass through.

Oh fuck and the battery life, now I'm hearing the thing only gets an hour if you use the pt but is advertising 2 and half hours?. Smh I haven't even bought it yet and I'm already a unsatisfied customer

Vrsumo2017

I bet its not about defective unit ... too many people complaining of this passthrough bad quality - take a look here ...
Maybe Meta could fix it with software update - hope so ! Or maybe they use lower quality cameras for different Q3 units for different regions and so on ... In this case many people will be fucked up ...

and there are many more similar topics ...
