Vision Pro has been out for almost 2 years now, so I'm not surprised. It's also worth noting that the lenses and engineering decisions around the optics can have way more influence on perceived image quality than just the specs would imply. Here's just one discussion around the challenges and decisions made around optics: https://kguttag.com/2024/03/01/apple-vision-pros-optics-blur...

I'm actually more surprised that Apple's update to Vision Pro was just a CPU bump that failed to address the criticisms people had - namely weight, price, and content/lack of a killer app. The Vision Pro's M5 is roughly 4-7 times faster in Geek Bench than the Galaxy XR's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 so it'll be interesting to see whether the Galaxy XR will be hindered in any way.

Yeah I had a Quest 2 and now have a Quest 3 for gaming - while the Q3 got a very modest resolution bump, the optics changes where night and day better - pancake lenses where worth upgrading alone over fresnels, reduction in glare and the sweetspot been massive by comparison.

I'm torn on the quest. I don't own any VR. The cost of a lot of these systems is much higher than the quests. However, I feel like I'd use it tethered to my PC a lot. Do you notice loss in quality for that? I haven't been able to find out if it's actually sending a high bit rate or even uncompressed video stream or what
