The Quest 3 is capable of the same stuff and is only $500.
Every single reviewer is saying that the quality of the VR and specially the AR blows any competition out of the water. I highly doubt your comment is true.
The quality is better but it still does "the same stuff". A PC with a 1080p display and Nvidia 3050 does the same stuff as a 4k display and an Nvidia 4080.
Some titles may run at higher FPS on the 3050 build XD
It costs 10x more. It sure as hell better do things better than the quest.
Adding the Valve Index is a another high end model that does all this and more for $1000.
The big difference is the Apple's AR features
I’d agree with you, but the index isn’t a standalone device. Pack all the computing power into the index and the price is going to skyrocket.
Edit to add: index doesn’t have eye or hand tracking.
They already did, the VIVE XR Elite, and its $1000.
What? That’s… an entirely different headset? Not even the same manufacturer. There’s also some fairly significant differences between them. The person I replied to said that the Index does all the same stuff that the Vision Pro does which is empirically incorrect.
I have both and the Quest 3 is definitely not capable of the same stuff.
Kevin Sorbo and Kevin Costner are capable of the same stuff too but there is a clear difference in performance and value.
I get the point but you could have picked at least one good actor instead of two mediocre ones. Sorbo vs Spacy. Big difference in both acting ability and how shitty they are as people.
I get your point too. Kevin Sorbo was the name that came to my head first, for some reason, and Kevin Costner followed. TBF though, Kevin Costner has won 2 Academy Awards, one for Best Director (Dances with Wolves in 1991) and has been nominated for a best actor award. He does have a long list of industry accomplishments in various roles. Kevin Sorbo doesn’t have anything close to that. I’m not a big fan of Kevin Costner but objectively speaking he is accomplished in his career.
Kevin Spacey wouldn’t have been better though, with his rapey background and all that, wouldn’t feel right putting him forward as something to aspire to.
Maybe Kevin Sorbo and Kevin Kline would have been a better comparison.
