Recently I finally got to try VR— the Samsung Gear VR.
I was a bit disappointed (my expectations were ridiculously high going into it though). I was surprised to find (1) the resolution to be quite pixelated and (2) visible black strips of the hardware bordering my viewport.
After usage, both the resolution and the visible hardware were not issues. They "melted" away and I was "immersed".
But I'm curious: is the Rift expected to be higher quality than Gear in this regard?
- amckenna 11y agoYeah the Samsung Gear VR was like a mobile consumer version of the DK2. The Rift (CV1) will be a definite improvement over the Samsung Gear VR in terms of tracking, audio, and resolution (resolution hasn't been released yet but it is assumed).
- steve-benjamins 11y agoAwesome— thanks!
