SO MANY New VR Headsets! Quest 3S Leaks and More VR News Buzz

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

The reception of the first video in the news buzz series has been GREAT! So I'll keep making them to help you keep up with what's happening in the XR space (and also because it's fun to make them:) - here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHKQnZRnaM6pha8 - Thank you so much to each and every one of you for watching and liking 🤩 A quick reminder, if you want to help out the channel 100% free, then make sure to watch a video until the end, and not click away - long view duration helps the algorithm, so just keeping it play until the end helps immensely! And of course, leave your comments :)

Highly appreciated since we're missing you in new Next Dimension episodes❤

[@WorriorXD]

I NEED THE FEATURES FROM HTC BUT IN A SMALLER FORM AND PANCAKE LENS PLEASE THEN SPEND MY MONEY

[@ylcnknn7636]

Love your channel, thanks for the news

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Thanks for all the love 💜

[@terrystokes7893]

Everything is "coming soon".. Which is actually fine with me. I have 410 games on quest 3 and I only play like maybe 4 of them.. Walkabout and ultimate golf and beat saber and some mixed reality stuff, which is awesome. But you're right, the future of mixed reality is gonna rock😁 Keep us informed and keep us in the vr universe 👋.

[@Eagledocstew]

@@terrystokes7893 LOL….totally agree with you! And now with V.69 here I have “uninstalled” @90% of those games and my menu is so much nicer now

[@74amazing]

HTC: DP and fresnel lenses. I mean... who designed this?

[@mikeraptorh6888]

What do u think of vr glasses like viture xr pro

[@C6v1999]

I do hope you can eventually cover the Somnium VR-1 XR headset after it ships in the next month or so.

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Yes I already spoke to Artur about it 👍

[@BlackArroToons]

Thanks for the scope of all the competition of VR Headsets, which can push the industry forward with better technology.

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Had to get it out before Meta Connect starts!

[@onikaze8445]

you take the good you take the bad you take them both and there you have the Vive Focus Vision. I am astounded that they are using the older XR2 chip in it.

[@bluebell1]

Can’t wait to see what your opinions are after Meta Connect.

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Can’t wait to report on everything!

[@leonard8766]

What we need is a VR headset similar to the Steam Deck, but with a focus on customization and modding by the community. Allowing the public to create and add new features will spark innovation, letting users push the device’s potential beyond its original design. This would give us the flexibility to enhance the headset's capabilities and create an ever-evolving platform. It should also support portable PC gaming, giving users the freedom to play their favorite games on the go. For the best immersive experience, the screens need to be OLED, ensuring crisp visuals without visible pixels, so the display is clear and smooth for the end user.

[@elismart13]

while im not considering buying one, this makes me hopefull for the near future of XR

[@waytoomuchtimeonmyhands]

Interesting that vive included "focus" in the name of their new xr headset but not in the XR Elite. Seems like the XR Elite was just a POC and now it is being folded back into the product line. What does that mean for the pro line? Does it remain a strictly VR product? Will there be another pro version or is it the end of the line?

[@SargonDragon]

The Focus series is Vive's business focused line of headsets whereas XR Elite is for consumers. The Focus Vision is not a superset of the XR Elite. It has Fresnel lenses while the XR Elite has pancakes, for instance. I don't think there's any change in course here for Vive, except they realized that the Focus Vision could be of interest to VRChat users on the side for what is otherwise still a business focused headset. Kind of like how Quest Pro accidentally became a popular headset for VRChat use.

[@darkvoid4017]

maybe if the vision thing was a pcvr standalone it would be worth that price edit steam vr games + being able to play oculus games

[@stuartburns8657]

We need games not more headsets..

[@matthewcontreras6277]

Trust me bro, if it’s stand alone, we need 1 or two more for it to actually display the potential of vr

[@ThatDankCheese]

True, but the Quest 3s will help start pushing out the Quest2, and devs can start (in theory) making better games

[@eon5323]

Arkham Shadow, Behemoth, the Alien game, are all right round the corner. Also there's stuff like Metro VR in the works.

[@stuartburns8657]

@@eon5323 Lots and lots of big name / high expectation disappointments so far. Let's see

[@PacoRandomReviews]

More devices means more insentives for devs to start investing in VR

[@Johanneslol11]

I think the biggest problem is the lack of content. Those spectical glasses, are they also for people who neee glasses ? As I now sadly need to wear a glasses, it can better be cool glasses. 😂 4:17

[@Eagledocstew]

Love to hear more about that Snapchat glasses, even though it only lasts @45 mins-I’m sure an external battery will help that. As for RayBans, I love the cam and video but the transitioning is awful! They need to make the transitions better or I’ll just stick with regular sunglasses. Keep up the great reviews, always a pleasure to see your videos-all the way to the end! 👍

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Thank you! I may be able to test Snapchat Spectacles soon - no promises, but I'll try!

[@Eagledocstew]

@@DiscoVRTetiana Would love to see your review of the Snapchat Spectacles AND the Freeaim shoes! 😀

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

@@Eagledocstew I keep forgetting to reach out to freeaim 😅😅 thanks for the reminder! But last I checked they are not ready to ship samples yet though, they only do on site demos

[@antjones2281]

I really hate the fact that HTC tacked word "Vision" on their Focus hmd. So desparate. Why steal the word vision and still use Fresnel lenses? May as well rename it to the HTC "unfocused" vision.

[@zygmuntpostawa1]

Explosion as expected after apple released their apple vision pro ❤🎉🎉 finally they started to worry about their customers and making their products better i love that

[@lolmao500]

HTC : 120 degree FOV... still too low and they are back to crappy lenses instead of OLED. Shame

[@PixelShade]

I don't know if uneven pixel-structure of OLED, and "mura" is preferable to the pixel sharpness of RGB-pixel structure of LCD panels... let's hope they forgot to tell us that the displays have local dimming.

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

I don’t think they have local dimming… it would be a very important selling point for them

[@Marzio84-VR]

Il nuovo visore HTC è troppo caro per quello che offre..

[@amNotHumanEnough4Uquestion]

VR should make Museum VR (Aquarium) (libraries) City Hall buildings and Historical buildings with live activities from the Museums. with the ability to add (new) cities. future VR plant to have CERNS in VR and the Vatican for educational perspective and entertainment and the Salem MA witch Museum AND Space Walk and (Planets) PS Zoom Should Have VR. with a Menu of simple games like connect 4 chest and others. FOR THERAPY purpose

[@G.Yam74]

Yes,....the hardware, without good software. Much car then road.....😂

[@jango71]

HTC has not understood that lenses are more important than displays when talking about VR headsets.

[@jaenm.meledez6440]

The first one in the comments 😂🎉

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

You are!!

[@shawn6306]

i do wish that xr all small glasses in one vr, ar and mr happen come out in 2025 next year with affordable price because i heard most believe 2025 future of xr will be the big huge year for vr, ar and mr i still hope it happens next year in 2025 i also hope vr and ar gloves happen in 2025 as well fingers crossed that doesn't get dealyed hopefully anotther company makes xr make that possible in 2025 i i'm disappointed we have to wait until the late 2020s decade and next decade 2030s decade

[@Zap_Games]

Why are so many VR creators using this AI art now? It looks terrible and AI art is just straight up gross.

[@jamiesalmonsculpture8599]

I guess because it's quick and gets clicks. Everyone's doing it though. I can't stand it either, but it's not going away, so better get used to it

[@SaoGalaxVr]

Does it really matter

[@toututu2993]

Yea the so called "ai art" looks trash and it lacks all the basic fundemental to make something decent.

[@toututu2993]

​@@SaoGalaxVrIt doesn't matter for those clueless moron who care for nothing of course

[@linzkirk]

The vive focus vision, $1000, the display port doesn't work without buying an adaptor not included. It uses a gen 1 XR chipset. Also what library of stand alone games will it have.? I dont think anything HTC will make from now is worth getting. The Vive was great, but it had heavy involvement from Valve. But it also shows how much monopoly Mata has. How can any company compete when there headsets are massively subsidised and the can loose billions on VR.

[@SETHalpine]

Yes it works without the adaptor. The Display Port 1.4 PROTOCOL offers a compressed image without visual losses, the DSC uses a 3:1 ratio compression In addition, the HTC headset uses a USB 3.2 type C INTERFACE in Alt mod 1.4, which means that it can -Charge the headset through the USB interface, which the DP interface (the DP socket) and the DP protocol can only do from version 2 -Balance a streamed signal like the Quest3, does it with its USB 3.0 cable, with a consequent compression/decompression done by the XR2, which is the bridle of the quality of this stream... We must not forget that it is a vulgar mobile chip. If there was a chip dedicated to this, we would not criticize the quality and latency of the streaming so much.... -Use a signal according to the DP protocol as long as the headset has a video controller that manages this protocol. There, the XR2 is put out of work. For all this, you have a FREE cable* • USB 3.2 Gen 2 (up to 10 Gbps) that will transmit the stream or support the DP 1.4 alternative mode, a 5m cable that will go from the USB-C socket of the headset to the USB-C socket of your motherboard or to the USB type C socket of the AMD 7900 CGs And for 190€ you have this first cable + a VIVE Wired Streaming converter • Converter (0.7 m): - Input: USB-A, DP, Power (AC/USB) - Output: USB-C with support for DP 1.4 alternative mode • USB-C to DP adapter of your CG • MiniDP to DP adapter of your CG • USB-C to USB-C cable for charging (1.2 m) • USB-PD power adapter (30 W) www.vive.com/fr/solution/vive-streaming/ I would therefore like to draw your attention to the fact that the interface provided as standard is therefore of the USB C Alt mod 1.4 type and that unless you have an outdated CM, the converter should not interest you... And I take this opportunity, since you mention it, to remind you that given the very high resolutions of the Pimax Super, it must switch to DP2.1, except that Nvidia still does not offer it and not that TV manufacturers keep the DP2.1 controllers for themselves Pimax will therefore probably stay on a DP1.4 protocol using a very high compression ratio...

[@linzkirk]

@@SETHalpine So without the adaptor its a compressed signal like the Quest 3 and not direct display port?

[@SETHalpine]

@@linzkirk DP 1.4 is a compressed 3:1 signal....Quest 3 stream a signal with a higher ratio ( may be 20:1...i don't know...) As i wrote, the HTC headset uses a USB 3.2 type C INTERFACE in Alt mod 1.4 for free, which means that this cable can -Balance a streamed signal like the Quest3, with consequent compression/decompression done by the XR2 OR -Use a signal according to the DP protocol as long as the headset has a video controller that manages this protocol. So yes you've DP protocole by using this USB-C cable. That you'll plug to your motherboad (or to 7900's USB-C)
