[interstice]

I purchased a Q2 mostly because it was an incredible price for getting into VR, something I had long wanted to do mainly because I read a lot of sci fi as a kid.

Unlike the Vive I rented some years ago for a party, the screen made text more or less readable when it was large enough (I think the screen door effect interfered more on the Vive). Also not needing up base stations was a huge QOL improvement for using it a lot, and after I upgraded to Wifi 6 the desktop lag was pretty negligible. The weight doesnt bother me at all to be honest but having it resting against my face probably wouldnt be great day after day.

But after playing around with some desktop mirror apps, I decided it's not where I'd want to switch - yet. I code on a 32" 4k monitor at 100% scaling and I'm not interested in replacing that until I can get close to the same number of words infront of me at a time.

But.. 8k Pimax has been out for a while, 12k Pimax VR headset was announced, and the Varjo aero is expensive but has 2880x2720px per eye and was just released to consumer. The space is getting interesting very quickly at the moment.
