after testing the Pico 4 for over two weeks now, I had a hard time trying to use my Quest 2 again… I‘m with you. There is not a strong need for Quest 2 users to change , especially when U have a large games library. But the Pico 4 is a perfect choice for people who entering VR right now.

[@Kay0Bot]

Agreed, quest pro and pico4 are 1.5x generational bump. Most people ,with headsets, want a 2-4x jump for the money

[@irfanpatel564]

I disagree! I have the quest 2 and used it for over a Yr. I've now got the Pico 4 and it's a huge upgrade. I've tried all sorts of headstraps including bobo vr and I'm forever adjusting the headset on my quest 2 and pico 4 just works. I've invested around £700 in total on the quest 2 and decided to sell it. I would highly recommend the pico 4 over quest 2. Its leaps and bounds ahead!!!

[@Goooodbye]

i agree, can't back to Q2 too

[@darrenpearsall4523]

If it wasn't for the fact they ditched the display port connector of the pico neo 3 link, I'd be severely tempted. Having the option of uncompressed, tethered PCVR taken away is a bit of a deal breaker at this price.

[@NoThankYou541]

Just got my imported Pico 4 and honestly love it. I have my PC and Router running in the same room with 5g and have had a blast. You are right on the washout some of the racing games I play show it. Overall I am happy with it.

[@ProgrammistMusic]

i have both Quest 2 and Pico 4 as well as Pico 3 and i use them all depending on what i want to do. Unfortunately i would not recommend the Pico 4 to anyone at the moment, since Pico still has not fixed the barrel distortion transformation for a stable and correct image on the lenses. This causes jittery and warping images in both native and PCVR modes. Your eyes will get used to it after a while but the risk of getting motion sick and eye damage is much higher. Compared to the Quest 2, the Quest is much more stable in terms of visuals.

Upgraded from Q2 256 to P4 256 - HUGE difference. Pico 4 is so awesome! Lenses and image quality, also audio quality is better. PC connection just works via air wifi, quest 2 was black screen of death. And there was no fuss, just click pico connect app, sync and that's it, no dancing around, like with old quest 2 - nothing worked. Watching video is no comparison. Love PICO 4! RTX 3090, AMD 5900x, 32GB DDR 4000 cl 16. Oh, PICO 4 doesn't feel like a brick on your face too, play longer, enjoy comfort.

[@lonewolfsky4816]

If you already have a quest 2, wait to see what they do with quest 3. If you don't have a quest 2 and need a work out or entry headset, choose pico 4.

[@JuniorYTrinidad]

You also need to factor in the cost of a rigid "strap for the quest 2. When you factor that in I think the Pico 4 is a no brainer if you are getting your first headset. Especially if you already own a VR ready PC. Quest two with the price increase and no hard strap included in the box is not worth it imo when compard to the Pico 4. But I agree there isnt much pont getting the Pico 4 if you already own a quest two. But if you need a second headset or it's your first purchase, I would definitely get the Pico.

[@1blisslife]

I'm enjoying the pay for games as tax free games for the Pico4 here in the US atm. 😁 Anyone else have the Pico4 here in the US? I like the location of the volume rocker on the Pico4 better than Meta/Quest2. The adjustable play space when sitting down is something I had been wanting for ages on Quest 2 & Pico4 had it out of the box. I'm also very satisfied with the battery being in the back & also wanted this since the Quest1 days. I do wish there was a pin code or fingerprint authentication when buying games on the VR assistant app. Overall? I'm pretty happy with it. 😊 Download speeds were pretty fast in Texas and import? My shipping was $40 thus making the price $469USD for the 256gb model with shipping included. I've been using the VR assistant app for almost 2 weeks now with no problem and games are priced in USD for me. This might be because of the Pico neo 3... Idk I'm happy with it & got it within a few days after launch without breaking the bank. The friend finder function isn't working for me... I wonder if I'm connected to server's in the US(if it has any)?

[@patrickgomes15]

And yeah, buying the games tax-free games is nice! 😀 Also, I've been using Ali Express a lot for accessories. One 'con' I should point out is that the face gasket does start to hurt the forehead after about 40 mins of usage. I think replacing the padding should fix it. Have ordered a replacement kit on AliEx. There are also 3D print files for replacement gaskets on thingaverse -- ones that fit face shapes not so much like East Asians'.

[@raninrai2849]

i own both quest 2 and pico 4. in terms software capabilities/technology/update i think quest 2 is legendary. blurriness/sharpness not that much difference. if you use wirelink.. quest 2 is still superior than pico 4. pico 4 link using the cable is still blurry. u need to use virtual desktop for pico 4... my gpu is rtx3090. for sim racing i still use my Quest 2. Fresh rame rate.. Quest 2 and pico 4 is not that much difference. Quest 2 is still legendary since the developers in meta still pushing it.

[@jesusrv2009]

Sorry but I completely disagree. I own both too and Pico 4 using VD at gigabit speed looks much much better than Quest 2. I use it mainly for PCVR MFS2020 and the smoothness and visuals using Ultra or Godlike mode in VD are night and day, plus using things like the motion reprojection implemented in VD makes a world of difference. But it is not only that, the comfort on the Pico 4 are night and day compared with Quest 2. The weight distribution and the heat dissipation is much better in Pico 4

[@heatherperkins9737]

As much as I have mixed feelings about all things “Meta,” I have a Quest 2 headset and use it every day for workouts and active games. I’m unlikely to jump ship to Pico at this point. That said, I am fascinated by VR tech, and this channel is one of my go-to places to find out the latest developments. Thanks for everything you do!

[@trumplostlol3007]

Quest 2 games suck. They are OLD and expensive. The graphics are worse than their PCVR versions. Quest 2 can't play many OLD PCVR games like Asseto Corsa. In fact, Quest 2 can't play any serious PCVR games, unless you have a gaming PC. I have kind of abandoned my Quest 2. Now that I have a ps5, I will wait for PSVR 2. Quest 2 and even Quest 3 are bad options for VR gaming.

Nor has AC tried to port to standalone...What you're basically saying is that there's no current standalone headset that can run PCVR equivelent titles natively.

We might got stop-gap solutions like PCVR streaming soon, but the PSVR 2 will probably suit you more for the immediate future.

[@trumplostlol3007]

@@ehjhey7 Why put so much weight on your head when you can use a PSVR 2 headset with a ps5 that is much cheaper than PCVR and Quest pro? The gpu of Quest pro is inferior to that of PS4. You can NEVER play any VR games with good graphics. PSVR 2 will most likely have titles like GT7. Or you can play Dirty Rally using your PS5 with the old PSVR headset with much improved fps. PS5's AMD gpu is equivalent to a mid range gaming PC with a RTX 3060ti gpu. Quest pro is two generations behind in terms of computing power.

[@avi1514]

I really appreciate this fair assessment. I am getting tired of the greedy paid reviews making the pico4 an absolute joy when at best they both have their pros and cons. They are two giant (and in my opinion just as equally shady) corporations doing the absolute same thing on different sides of the planet. Neither of them are going to save the world with this technology. Change, yes. But not save. Anywho… with all that being said. I have big dreams and as much as I like to play a game from time to time, I’d rather be working. Right now meta has what I need, and I’m not really complaining. I will be trying out the quest pro with a very open heart. Because at the end of the day, it’s all about how I feel about my choice and not how The reviewers say I should feel. Which is why I absolutely love this channel.

The PSVR 2 sounds good with the OLED and HDR but what can you do with it besides games? Can you use the new PSVR2 with SteamVR and use apps from that large library? With Sony I feel like I have to buy everything including media players or I could be wrong. Plus you have to buy a PS5 if you don't already have one. And you can't even get one at MSRP!!! What's the point? And it's wired as well. I could forgive all this if PS5 was available at normal prices and you were to do more than just buy expensive games.

[@dtz1000]

Hopefully it will have a built in video player so you can watch movies. OLED is so much better for that than LCD is.

[@MekaniQ]

Quest 2 VS Pico 4 in my opinion: Comfort is day and night different between Q2 and Pico 4, Much wider field of you for the Pico than the Quest, Essentially better controllers, however, Better amount of games for the Q2 than Pico (could change soon tho) More accessories for the Q2, considering the Pico 4's strap isn't removable. Overall in my opinion, if you want much better comfort out of the box, and you live in Europe or Asia, get the Pico 4 imo. If you live in the US or want to access a bigger library of games (If we don't say that you have a PC), then go with the Q2. Overall that just my opinions of course 😅, I got my Q2 a week ago and I'm not considering to upgrade anytime soon, I'm really enjoying it so far Thank you for the review either way 🙏

I still have a Rift S and I'm still very happy with it, yes even despite the cable! PCVR is where VR is at for me especially now that mods of existing AAA PC flatscreen games are becoming more commonplace. There just isn't the deep, sophisticated content for standalone due to hardware limitations and I feel that barrier will not be broken for years until the mobile chipset makes some BIG leaps forward. Great review and comparison thank you. I've used Quest 2 and I found it front heavy to wear after the really excellent comfort of the Rift S. Battery life also an issue for me who is not used to limits on my playing time. I will keep waiting for either Quest 3 or Valve Deckard before I upgrade - if I even upgrade at all. I'll be all retro VR with my RIft S I spose And i'll keep treading on my cable and yanking my head down, getting it twirled around my ankles. Such is life 😆

No pick yet. Still waiting to see how these continue to improve and will continue watching many video reviews. Too bad about HP news. I have a HP G2 V2 and it is alright. It has one thing I am disappointed in which is the center Sweet Spot(SS) is too small and outside the SS I can see the lenses become blurry. My IPD is 60 so I am at the lowest setting of the Headset. So it is best to move my head rather than just my eyes. I dont use the controllers much since I do SIM racing which is sitting games and just use the headset. Thanks for the video.

[@OhlsonAnimation]

Did you get the third party face cover that brings you closer to the lenses? I got it for my G2 and was blown away by how much larger the sweet spot became and increased fov :)

[@BLACKSYNTH]

Pico 4 by far, but it does have a couple of design flaws, the audio speaker port position, Third party AMVR face mask is mandontory. Deffo a Quest 2 killer though.

[@kairon156]

Oh dear. I've been thinking about getting the Pico 4 at the end of 2023 as my first VR but there's some important features it's missing, hopefully they can be added in as time goes by. aww, fitness stuff might bring me back to the Pico 4. I'm way too slothen and hope that VR will help me move around more, especially during our 5+ months of icey winter weather. Knowing how odd some of my body measurements are I suspect having a better adjustment for the lenses will be handy. Plus the 2 quality screens over the 1 screen sounds much better. Okay, I think Pico 4 will be my pick between these two. I didn't even think about watching movies and stuff with VR so that's just a bonus. Plus the extra ram could make ease of use much smoother. My big drawback for Pico 4 is, it doesn't seem to have an ability to have external batteries for the headset, and the strap is hard wired into the glasses. I have tell Christmas or so before I get a VR so maybe The Quest 3 will be out before than.

[@randyx007]

[@adamo1139]

Pancake lenses require higher brightness of the source display to archive the same final apparent brightness as the fresnel lenses due to how light is bouncing inside multiple times. This is very likely causing the shorter battery life and may also shorten battery life of other headsets with pancake lens design. It will also impact the temperature of the headset, since more energy is dissipated near the lens system.

Its the same as Q2 just any decent usb-c. Unfortunately the image quality over cable is not better than wireless and imposes a hit to performance due to image compression.

[@AIPureProgress]

You probably get so many questions but I’m hoping you can help me. I just want a VR headset for watching movies with my friends in Bigscreen VR. I’d like to get the best quality I can but I also don’t want to sell a kidney for it. Which headsets should I be looking at?

[@ronaldchen2275]

what about the prices of games~~??? it would be super awesome to get an app and game and price comparison vid, with queist pico and steam pc vr~~~

Thanks for the review. How do you mod blade and sorcery on the pico 4 is it the same as on the quest 2 and will the mods on the quest 2 work for the pico 4?

I’ve bought P4 but really just for PCVR, hope the compressed visuals isnt noticeable on VD! I have a 3080. I thought the bandwidth when using VD sorted out the compression concerns?

Steam displays the image from the goggles on the computer monitor and this image is 100x better than what I see in the goggles, how to fix it?

[@simasfm7997]

Hey what you think about pico 4 sweet spot vs valve index ? I have valve index headset and have bad eyes and somewhy psvr was for me easier to see. :) I have asigmatism and near vision :) cant see more then 2 meters :)

[@basseman4239]

from what i understand a pancake lens do not have the sweet spot problem. sharp basically everywhere except maybe far to the sides from what i understand. if you watch a comparison where the film the lens you can see that it is sharp all over. easiest to see in one of those test screens.

[@susancottrell3646]

You may want to upgrade as one of the updates from Quest downgraded the battery usage

Nice!

So the conclusion is if I already got quest 2, I should stay to stay with the quest 2.

Do Anybody know about the problems with PayPal to ad on the VR Assistant i don't can buy games because the PayPal don't get accepted ???????

[@MeixnerQuest]

I have both and Pico 4 is much better, I about to sell my quest 2 on ebay

[@SheikAshii]

Why don’t they release it in Canada? Canada didn’t try to ban tiktok like the US I don’t think

[@basseman4239]

because they decided to release it in different regions first? i will most likely come.

[@SheikAshii]

@@basseman4239 The assumption is that they disnt do america because of the whole risk factor tied to tiktok.

[@MinosML]

@@SheikAshii it's more a bout marketshare I'd say, Meta is huge on the US and in Canada, so they won't bother for now at least

[@allikin75]

Let's say you are blind on one eye - will you still get the 3D effect with two LCDs?

[@receptionsystem]

the pico 4 easily could've had extra cameras on the strap

I like to play flight. Sim ,for DCS on Steam ???? Good ?

[@kerasandersonn5542]

Is Holofit available on Pico 4?

[@Vickmihaltan]

Is pico 4 require Facebook?

[@EhCloserLook]

If I had known that the PICO 4 was coming out 1 year ago, I might not have purchased my Quest 2!

[@Starrky923]

I want to get into VR and was wondering if it's worth waiting for pico4 to come to Poland or eu where I can get it or just go for quest 2 as first headset and call it a day? Worth the price difference and wait? I'm mostly interested in something like beatsaber and fitness stuff while also not really wanting to compromise too much on the quality of the display and probably leaning towards streaming wireless from wifi6 router to headset as it sounds pretty awesome to not get lost in cables and stuff.

[@Leto2ndAtreides]

If you have a good enough PC, you can play Beat Saber through that.

[@NoThankYou541]

As long as you have a good wifi router in the room with it and I mean in the room not in the next one. You can get most of the games on steam or through other means online to work with the pico 4. I am in the US and ordered mine off ebay from a reputable vendor and have had zero issues.

[@dtz1000]

If you're interested in beat saber then the right choice is Quest 2. If you can wait then the Quest 3 is coming next year.

[@ScorgeRudess]

More RAM does not mean better performance... it just means more RAM... (more space to place textures and so)... Maybe, less stutters to poorly optimized games maybe... but, a terabyte of RAM would be useless if you use low speed RAM... so NO... more RAM does not mean better performance if the speed of the RAM is garbage... this are the specs that matter and no one is talking about... Mhz of the RAM.

[@bruhmananimation]

Cool

[@digiboiwand]

I'm interested in Pico 4 for myself since I have never used one before so wouldn't buy an older headset like the quest 2. Plus I don't like Facebook. In the reviews it seems like pico 4 seems like an upgrade to the quest 2. I'll wait for quest pro if it is better but either one is not in my country yet so I have to wait either way.

[@vulpine3431]

Quest pro is not meant for gaming and it costs like 1.5k

[@eduparada970]

In terms of privacy PICO is owned by the same chinese company that owns tik tok and as you could expect the chinese government will spy on you too so take that in count. Both Facebook and Tik tok steal your data

[@loudoesreviews]

While it's great that the Quest 2 has some competition, both headsets pose a VR gaming dilemma. While both offer a stand alone VR experience, neither can provide a AAA VR Gaming experience. So both are a technical VR dead end and both will hobble AAA PCVR Gaming. My advice - choose one or the other and save your money for a PS5/PSVR2 if you are interested in experience the next level in VR Gaming.

[@sparkvrgame3046]

As for the content, Pico should be there soon. Since it usually only cost less than a week to review compared to Quest which could cost like three months....So 12 times difference 🙃

[@frankallen3634]

Unfortunately I hate first person anything so I don't plan on being part of vr. I also can't stand social or multiplayer so vr is kind of awkward my hates in one pkg

[@hittrewweuy7595]

But why would anyone buy old technology? The quest 3 will come out soon , and others . In my opinion , neither one is a smart buy ,wait for the new technology

[@CasandChary]

Yes, I agree for those who have a headset already (my conclusion talks more about it) but there's still so many people who don't have a headset and when they finally look, they'll see one of these two. Many may not know one headset is older

[@Wobbothe3rd]

Quest 3 Is unannounced, most analysts don't think it will come out until the end of 2023

[@MekaniQ]

@@Wobbothe3rd Can agree, especially for someone that got a Quest 2 a week ago 💀 And I hope they will still support the Q2 for years, I'm scared cause apparently the XR2+ is 40% more powerful than the XR2. So I hope it doesn't become like the Q1 all over again.

[@randyx007]

Pico 4 is a lot better than the Quest 2...

[@michaelromeo9255]

Horizon Venues and Horizon Worlds is a big deal. Pico has nothing yet to compete.

[@thetruth6585]

Horizon worlds is the stupidest social app ever developed. Its a 10 billion dollar failure.

[@Adam-qu5uk]

None. Have you seen the PSVR2 the Graphics are amazing especially Horizons. If the graphics are not next level no point

[@lukapodiashvili613]

It's crazy how people can spend that much money on 1 video and never use it again. I have been trying to save up for a quest 2 for so long that I am starting to give up..
