Samsung and Google to provide leading XR experiences by utilizing Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2. Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. today announced the Snapdragon® XR2+ Gen 2 Platform, a single chip architecture that unlocks 4.3K spatial computing at 90 frames per second for breathtaking visual clarity across work and play.

January 5, 20242 yr Will be interesting to see what new headsets would leverage this. The actual performance upgrade over the current version isn't massive but it's a nice resolution bump and support for two additional cameras for improved pass through or tracking. If the Pico 5 Pro was to actually make an appearance, i'm guessing it would be sporting this chip. Edited January 5, 20242 yr by Donka Ryzen 9800X3D, RTX 5090, 64GB, Win 11. MSFS2020.

January 5, 20242 yr Author in addition to Samsung and Google, Qualcom says there are currently 5 other VR companies developing headsets based on the new XR2+ Gen2. I wouldn't be surprised if Varjo and Pimax are among them. good to know there will be more than just Apple.

January 10, 20242 yr I hope those future XR2+ headsets have direct video ports like DP / HDMI. Based on the experience of Quest 3, I'm not going to try a streaming only headset for MSFS again. I did find though, I enjoy a lot using Quest3 + VirtualDesktop to watch YouTube from my MSFS computer. RTX4090 ensures the highest possible setting and the image is nearly a perfect 4K quality on a virtual screen of ~150" few feet away. Fabulous and very immersive, even it's just 2D in VR. I have a high-end projector + 135" screen, but burning my precious bulb just to watch YouTube videos doesn't make sense. Quest3 does the job perfectly. 9950X3D / 64GB / RTX5090 / Pimax Crystal Light / Win11
January 10, 20242 yr Author 55 minutes ago, FlyIce said: the image is nearly a perfect 4K quality far from it. Quest3 pixels per eye: 2064 x 2208 = 1/2 of 4K. 9.1 mio total pixels, Apple Vision Pro = 23 mio total pixels, 2.5 more than Quest 3. true 4K would be twice the amount of pixels, over 16 mio pixels left + right eye combined. I wonder if a RTX 4090 could handle that at 60 fps. "4K resolution refers to a horizontal display resolution of approximately 4,000 pixels.[1] Digital television and digital cinematography commonly use several different 4K resolutions. In television and consumer media, 3840 × 2160 (4K UHD) is the dominant 4K standard, whereas the movie projection industry uses 4096 × 2160 (DCI 4K)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4K_resolution Edited January 10, 20242 yr by turbomax AMD 7800X3D, Windows 11, Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX Motherboard, 64GB DDR5 G.SKILL Trident Z5 NEO RGB (AMD Expo), RTX 4090, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2 TB PCIe 4.0, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 1 TB PCIe 4.0, 4K resolution 50" TV @60Hz, VR: Pimax Crystal Light + HP Reverb G2 @ 90 Hz, Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, be quiet 1000W PSU, Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black air cooler. 60-130 fps. no CPU overclocking. very nice.
January 10, 20242 yr I know. I am just saying visually it almost feels like 4K. Of course once we see the real 4K VR the Quest 3 will be no match. 9950X3D / 64GB / RTX5090 / Pimax Crystal Light / Win11
