The color gamut is high and makes the games look vivid. With HDR on the main difference is more detailed highlights.

I think the PSVR2 is a viable low end option to consider against the Quest 3 and Crystal Light. Against the Quest 3, the big selling points are the DisplayPort connection (no latency, no compression artifacts from remote streaming) and OLED panels. Versus Crystal Light, I think the main selling point is that it's not made by Pimax. You can expect a more stable and polished experience from the PSVR2 where Pimax has a really bad track record with stability and customer service. The big game changer will be if the opensource community can get the PSVR2's eye tracking working on PCVR. I will be surprised if they don't, but it's not a guarantee yet. But assuming it does, this will be a PCVR headset with OLED and eye tracking for $600. That will be a big deal for a lot of people out there, especially orphaned Reverb G2 DCS pilots and VRChat players. No other headset on the market will even come close to that.

For your review I'd like to see how the PSVR2 performs with mid range GPUs. 4090s are good to see the full potential of the device, but many will be playing with mid range cards like the 4070 super, very similar in performance to the 3090. I'd also like to see if the displayport connection offers benefits over streaming to something like Quest 3 in terms of lag, image quality and performance.

@pixxelpusher 10 күн бұрын

I agree. Most people would have something in a 60/70 variant, so seeing how it performs on those types of cards is important. I'm imagining it would put a lot less stress on the system so much better latency and even higher frame rates than Quest 3.

My Reverb G2 had a very similar resolution to the PSVR2 so as a true full bandwidth wired PCVR headset with great controller tracking it will make a great PCVR headset with OLED Displays, and a worthy upgrade from the Index and the Reverb G2.

Quest Pro has much better clarity than the PSVR2, PSVR2 is only 18PPD and doesn't have a full subpixel arrangement. Most disappointing, it uses fresnel lenses so is clear only in the centre, and suffers bad mura. It's not a good PCVR headset unless you absolutely prioritise OLED colours and brightness over everything else.

For a low-medium end PCVR headset, it will be arguably the best option in terms of the overall visual and comfort experience. (Pimax Crystal a bit more expensive and heavier, but higher resolution LCD....take your pick) I just wish they launched it on PC alongside PS5, instead of waiting this long. But I'm extremely glad we are now finally getting it at least, so we now have this as an option.

Not sure if I could completely go PSVR2 from my Aero, but i think I could do 75% PSVR2 on PC and the Aero just for sim racing. As I said though, the IVRy drivers have warped visuals, like you're zoomed in too much so it loses depth. But the colours and contrast/black levels with the PC are going to be amazing.

I started with the CV1 when Touch launched, Samsung Odyssey, the original PSVR, the Index on launch and finally a PSVR2. 99% of my VR time is spent simracing on PC 9700K @ 5Ghz/3080Ti on the Index. The PSVR2 is a step up in just about everyway except audio. If god rays weren't a thing I think the Index still holds up pretty well overall. I recently spent some time using a Quest 3 paired to a PC with a 12900K/4090 and other than black levels I think overall its a clear step above the PSVR2 with super crisp image movement. I'm looking forward to trying the PSVR with the PC as well since I own one.

I just tried my friend's Quest 3 last weekend and after not trying the Quest 2, and I was a bit disappointed in the visuals when I tried Space Pirate Trainer (a very familiar game). I feel like it's extremely rare that we get a "straight upgrade" (without sacrificing something like Fov or tracking) when it comes to VR. It always feels like the "Rift-S situation". The Quest 3 might be a good one, but still, if I nitpick it hasn't caught up to the colors of the first one and it introduced new limitations with tracking and battery life. G2 didn't sacrifice anything, but only improved resolution iirc. What I mean by a "straight upgrade" is a product that does EVERYTHING better, even if some of the changes are only a very slight improvement. PSVR-2 seems to be the only one.

@@lowrider2756 I totally agree with it being over hyped... Give it to me straight; How would you compare the PSVR-2 (on PS5) to the Quest 3 streaming the same thing from a PC? I might still buy a Quest 3 because it's "good enough" but it will end up closer to a Beyond in price after the accessories and dedicated router, so I might be better off with a dedicated PCVR HMD. Maybe PSVR-2 if they get all the features working... I didn't get a chance to see the Quest 3 streaming from PC, but it wasn't really the graphics I was disappointed with. The resolution just wasn't as amazing as some have described it, like "Screen door effect is totally gone!" and "The colors are actually great" and "A much better FoV". I felt like yeah the FoV is a little better when it's cranked against my eyelashes, I could clearly see SDE from the moment I got into the menu, and the colors were okay in bright/ cartoon-ish style games. The Improved FoV was the biggest let down tbh. The pancake lenses actually are just as good as people say, and I was pleasantly surprised with the passthrough quality (something I don't plan on using very much). It's a wash imo, and I'm tired of waiting for someone other than PiMax to release something with 120°+ FoV.

It's like dirty lenses, which you can't clean up. Q3 also has mura, but of a very minor magnitude and you can only see it in a very bright scene, while in PSVR2 you see it everywhere. If you wear glasses, just put some greasy fingerprints on your glasses and try to live with it for a couple of hours. The strength of mura effect varies from headset to headset. If you can test a PSVR2 headset before buying, then go ahead. If you can't, then most probably you'll get something you'll want to smash into pieces on the floor.

Describing it as being like a dirty lens I think isn't a very good analogy and is a bit misleading. It's more like film grain that doesn't move.

Thanks for the responses! I remember the original quest and vive pro and I’m pretty disappointed that it’s 2024 and all the major options feel like a severe downgrade from those in terms of contrast and black levels. I was playing through AC Nexus on the Q3 and the tunnel levels just make the whole screen light grey. I worry about blooming on miniLED panels like on the Crystal Light, but the lenses are an upgrade over the Quest 3’s I hear. Although, I would also have to buy base stations and controllers, effectively tripling the price compared to the PSVR2. The Crystal Super OLED looks fantastic, but it’s $2,000, unreleased as of now, and I don’t want to shell out that kind of money for a headset until varifocal is implemented. I’m hoping the successor to the quest pro has OLED panels and varifocal aspheric glass lenses, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it just had OLED panels and an upgraded iteration of the pancake lenses we have now. I’d also be bummed out that I couldn’t get it to work with Index controllers for such a premium headset, but maybe the next generation of quest pro controllers will add enough features to make that less of a big deal. I guess I’m waiting until September no matter what.

I own both and I will be using PSVR2. The mura is lame, but I prefer PSVR2 in every other way. Mura is less immersion breaking for me than the compression artifacts of streamed PCVR on Quest. If Quest had a native Displayport, it would be a much closer race, in my opinion. The lenses on Quest3 are great but PSVR2 optics are just as good if you can get your eyes close enough to the lenses and lock in a good sweet spot.

On pc , HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback are disabled and won’t work. You are paying for features that will not work on pc as well as paying $60 for the adapter.

@Ryan-tn4gk 12 күн бұрын

Yeah. Hopefully someone will mod system wide eye tracking for the psvr 2. That's all I need. I was super disappointed when that wasn't going to be enabled. Until it has eye tracking, I won't buy the adapter.

I really wish Sony would put in one final effort to make the PSVR good Even if it means they have to go the Quest route and make a standalone headset on par with the Quest 3 and also let it stream games games from the PS5

@@alanharrington What is the difference? i havent tried a headset with pancake lenses, also i heard the 3d effect of quest 3 is bad?

@alanharrington 12 күн бұрын

@@MetalDeathHead the pancake lenses are crystal clear with edge to edge clarity, no distortion or blur. The only criticism I have with pancake lenses is the darker edges, like a very slight vignette. You only notice it if you're really looking for it though, which as a VR enthusiast I certainly did, being too critical to be honest. I don't know who's told you that the 3d effect is bad, but that's pure bollox, the 3d effect is fine.

Quest 3 also has mura that is stronger or weaker depending on the quality control and instead of mura there is compression artifacts blur in any complex games as well as increased latency that impacts the fast paced games.

@@chadef555 without doubt Q3 has mura, but the only reason it is visible is that the lenses are so clear. When I first got the Q3 I thought that the mura I could see was something Q2 didn't have. However, when I put the Q2 back on to compare, I had to stare through the distortion and blur of the Fresnel lenses of the Q2 to notice that it had it too.
