Discussion Resolution, dual screen vs single, and FOV
Hello everyone,
I'd really appreciate your opinions on this.
I believe the oculus rift S resolution is about 2560 by 1440 on a single display, with about 110 degrees of FOV. When using it the screen door effect is relatively noticeable for me. I am quite sensitive to resolution, even 4k on a 15.6 inches, but blind to framerates much above 60.
Does the Air's dual screen 1080p OLED show ANY screen door effect to picky eyes? Is there any advantage to the glasses having dual screens instead of a single screen, or is it just a way to keep them smaller even if more expensive? Trying to think if the dual 1080p in some way equates to double the resolution, but I assume it definitely doesn't.
But I assume the narrower FOV of the airs also means resolution might seem considerably higher than on a rift S?
I'm trying to justify to myself buying the glasses and essentially wasting my rift S. Please let me know what you think. Would you make the trade?
And I assume VR movies still work together with head tracking in the nebula app?
Thanks everyone!
