How sick of Pi's VR hype are you?

HP, Valve, and MS announced they're making a headset together. 

I'm really curious about it.  They are promising a "no compromises next gen VR" and HP and Valve already made really great headsets.

The HP Reverb is supposed to have a really great display 2160x2160 per eye, compared with 1440x1600 on the index and that's pretty high resolution in the space.  You have to go to the PiMax or Varjo lines to beat those resolutions. PiMax is the closest comparison but I've heard bad things outside of the resolution. 

And Index has the highest refresh rate at 144 Hz. 


I'm also curious to see the tracking solution.  Valve's involvement suggests lighthouse to me, MS's suggests inside out. 

So either it's a headset that can use both or it'll be a high quality inside out headset that meets Valve's standards.


This and PSVR 2 are the headsets I'm most curious about right now.
