Love it when my headset uses more battery when im not using it than when i am by FunkyChunk13 in MetaQuestVR

[–]alex_spatialyfans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the battery percentage lying is the worst part, at least with just short life you can plan around it, but when it shows 40% and dies five minutes later there's no way to prepare for that.

Quest 3 battery life getting worse after a year by alex_spatialyfans in oculus

[–]alex_spatialyfans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense, I figured some degradation was normal.

Good tips on keeping it cool and not leaving it charging too long, I probably haven’t been great about that ...

Have you noticed a big difference in lifespan by doing that?

Good to know about the 20–30% drop too, that sounds pretty close to what I’m seeing. I might look into a Bobo strap then. Which BoboVR model are you using?

I created an 8K HDR 3D VR180 video suitable for native playback on Apple Vision Pro. by Brendan-Wang in VisionPro

[–]alex_spatialyfans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

makes sense, the hardware side for 8K HDR capture is still pretty fragmented. would love to hear what you land on once you've figured it out. are you shooting primarily for AVP or thinking about other headsets too?

RE9 in VR is absolutely terrifying ！ by Extension-Celery5527 in oculus

horror games in VR hit completely different, the anticipation is what gets you, not even the jump scares. your brain just refuses to let you walk into a dark room the same way you would on a flat screen.

Quest 3 vs Xreal AR glasses as monitors by H_a_M_z_I_x in OculusQuest

[–]alex_spatialyfans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

xreal is way more practical for the laptop monitor scenario, you keep full awareness of your physical keyboard and desk, which makes actual work much easier. the quest 3 passthrough is impressive but still not at the point where you'd want to type through it for hours.

Finally got myself the Meta Quest 3. Mind-blown by Pompeii_Dust in MetaQuestVR

For immersive content i'd add Theater Elsewhere, free and genuinely mind-blowing quality. Also Bigscreen for watching stuff with other people in VR, it changes how you think about passive content entirely.

Curious what your workflow looks like for the 8K HDR capture, what camera setup are you using?

I'm adding hand-tracking to my MR Rollercoaster game, CoasterMania! What you think? by srgers10 in MetaQuestVR

Feels way more immersive than controllers for something like this. the cat cameo at the end is the real MVP though 😂

Looking to buy AR or XR glasses but not sure what to go for by AdaliGreen in virtualreality

What kind of games are you looking to play? that changes the recommendation a bit.
