180vr watch in VR-headset
Meta Quest pro, just landed, its an absolutely awesome headset, but it is really worth 5 times more than a Quest2 ? and should you rush out to order one?
This video is a quick unbox and walk-through of the headset and a conversation about who its for.
Personally I feel, most buyers are going to be fairly uncomfortable with the pricepoint, and I can't say i blame them.
UPDATE.. its actually been more than a few weeks since I recorded this. and I gotta tell you, the QuestPro is growing on me in a big way, once you get used to the forehead mounting, it is way more comfortable and while the resolution is supposed to be barely more than the Q2. in reality it reads way higher without a feeling of pixels. I find the only time I do not use the Qpro, is for action games which tend to make the headset slide around a bit, anything else I do on the pro.

This headset definitely grows on you. The Quest 2 is actually £500 for the larger storage model so it's three times the price, not five. Having used it for six weeks or so now I actually think it is worth the money and is in fact three times better than the Quest. The Quest 2 wasn't good enough for me for high end PCVR, so I had to buy a Vive Pro 2 and a Reverb G2. The Quest Pro not only replaces my Quest 2 for standalone but its also far better than both the Vive Pro 2 and Reverb G2 for PCVR, and completely replaces them. When you then add on all the new features that none of other headsets have like mixed reality, eye and face tracking the headset starts to show its true value.

Hey Kevin - we completely agree - this particularly headset landed in October, and it have grown on me in a big way. the only thing I feel it fall short for is action games where we jump around, the full-face diving mask of the Q2 holds better for that. but other than that - I use this for everything. and I find myself using the headset far more overall than I ever used the Q2 on any given day, simply because the optical experience is head and shoulders above the Q2.

@bophoto Год назад

**** Edit - but like I said in the video - I still think its a no-brainer IF the money is not an object.. however that puts the headset still into a $1500+ territory that frankly can be hard to justify for most, unless its a work expense, or you simply are in a position where you can do this and not think about the size of the check too much.

@kevinbrook7033 Год назад

@@bophoto Yes, I agree with you too about the price being a lot, especially for most users as the Quest 3 is ony 11 months or so away which will fufil the needs of most users at a fraction of the price. I absolutely adore this headset though, so many different usecases and it's awesome at all of them. Regarding the headset stability, have you added a top strap? I bought Creative Studioform's top strap and it's awesome, it's so comfortable now as the top of my head takes the weight rather than my forehead. I play in the dark with an IR illuminator and it's gret to have nothing touching my face at all. I can play Half Life Alyx and Beat Saber fine like this and it's very stable, I haven't tried anything more fast paced than those games though in terms of action.

@@kevinbrook7033 im still playing ALYX on the INDEX headset. mostly because I have it. but 30+ minute of beatsaber or SuperNatural gets me too warm and for me the pro slides around a bit. yeah - this have become my go-to headset, its hard to explain, but they tweaked SOOOO many things, its far different and more what I expected VR to be like - than the quest 1 and 2 ever was. Hmmm a head strap.. may have to investigate :-)

@kevinbrook7033 Год назад

@@bophoto I think it's the first headset since the Index to actually improve all areas, even though the Index is ancient no other headset has really surpassed it in anything other than resolution up to now. The Quest Pro just gets so much right and finally feels like a next generation PCVR experience imo. Half Life Alyx at 5408 x 2736 looks so damn good! Definitely recommend the Creative Studioform topstrap. So comfortable now and I no longer have to keep adjusting the headset.

I. I'm going to check out more of your sailing videos. Keith

@enjoyvride Год назад

@BoLorentzen Big thank you for this detailed video! I'm struggling if I should buy, but this price... I'm sorry if it's not the place but would it be impossible for you to check my VR 3D content on my channel on Quest pro and check how it looks?

@bophoto Год назад

since RU-vid don't show more than 4K at this time. it looks the same in the Qpro headset as in the Q2 virtually. probably more interesting is how do your content look on say DeoVR as they let you play actual 8K. ;-) BTW the edges in the car show seems to pixelate a little, what are you shooting on.?

@KTHKUHNKK Год назад

This is so cool when I slide my finger around how the picture turns around and does different weird things I forgot what they call this but it's cool

@bophoto Год назад

LOL - thats the "source" of the 180vr experience, if watched in VR headset, this video will have 3D depth and you can look around the space

@KTHKUHNKK Год назад

It is truly truly awesome Bo

@KTHKUHNKK Год назад

I never tried those out I bet they're awesome Keith

@gehammer1971 Год назад

I looked it. Decided to wait for the Pimax Crystal. The fact it has Aspheric lenses, hot swap batteries, 2880x2880 screen, and 140 degree will work better with viewing my 8K content. At roughly the same price Meta Pro doesn't make sense for me.

@bophoto Год назад

good point - that said big part of the "meta" is the universe they are trying to create. where do you view 8K content? DeoVR.? Totally agree about the swappable batteries, that is probably my biggest dislike on the Qpro - the fairly short battery life.

@gehammer1971 Год назад

@@bophoto I have a R5c with the RF5.2mm I use to shoot family events. I also have been using to create content for youtube of local events. I currently have the Quest 2 but as you know it isn't the best to watching VR180. Meta Pro can only be used for 2 hours and then it's done. The swappable batteries means endless use. I watch youtube and DeoVR. I also upload my videos onto my Quest 2 which is a lot better than youtube compression. Still not where I want to be.
