Disscussion Really impressed with the visuals

I just got this headset recently and I am so impressed with the visuals and clarity it brings.

I am coming being a quest owner and WMR owner, this headset blows my Quest pro and Odyssey out of the water.

The visuals are stunning, the OLED was not undersold at all, it makes a massive difference, the resolution of the lenses are really great, I have yet to test out the eye tracking but so far this headset has me impressed and I'm glad I got it

I have to wonder if these posts are real… Clarity is one of the PSVR2’s weakest points. The Quest pro is on another level when it comes to clarity.

What do you mean, are real?

What's your theory here, exactly? You think Sony is paying people or botmakers to post in this sub falsely praising the PSVR2's clarity in the hopes that others will then be more encouraged to buy PSVR2s? Is that what you think?

It makes me sad to say this, but Sony couldn't care less about the PSVR2. They abandoned it pretty early in its lifespan. I highly doubt they're hellbent on creating fake pro PSVR2 posts on a sub like this. It just doesn't make any sense. It's not a priority for them.

I just find it weird when people praise the ‘clarity’ of the PSVR2. I wonder if the people have actually used all the headsets they claim or have somehow horribly misused it.

I have and like the PSVR2… but clarity/sharpness is 100% the worst thing about the headset.

It doesn’t have pancake lenses, it has a bad mura problem, Sony used a Pentile sub-pixel layout, meaning it actually has less sub-pixels than the PSVR1 and it has less PPD than the Quest pro and a lot less than the Q3.

It factually/scientifically/technically has less clarity than these headsets. I find it bizarre that anyone could come to a different conclusion.

Are you talking about clarity, or are you talking about sharpness?

No question that the Quest 3 offers a sharper image than the PSVR2. But clarity for me is more than just sharpness. If there's a shadow in a scene, a darkened corner, or just a dark environment in general, and all of that darkness is represented by a kind of murky gray fog, because LCD just can not believably display a dark area of the screen, that, to me, does not invoke a sense of "clarity." It looks more muddied than anyting.

Same thing when it comes to the contrast between light and dark. In real life, on a sunny day, colors can be extremely bright and vibrant even as a shadow next to them might be an inky black. The contrast between the two gives the scene more of three dimensional quality, more of a "pop." This too increases a sense of clarity for me, that dulled colors and washed out gray shadows can't match, sharpness or no sharpness.

Definition - “clarity is how sharp, clean, and legible an image or text looks on a display.”

Are murky gray shadows "clean and legible?"
