Yeah lucky mine arrived without flaws, only wonky piservice you fix by restarting it in task manager.
(This is actually the fastest way, no need to reboot pc)
Yeah if you like to try out the 5k+ sure
But perhaps abit later as I have some holiday activities lined up.
Temper your expectation tho,
This is pretty much my summary of 5k+
Black is bad when in dark scene. prepare to be in a sea of grey mist in complete dark scene.
Resolution is better than vive but moderately.
Not a huge step. But enough improvement to make your desktop text readable.
EDIT: Actually its quite a bit shaper. I have readjusted my strap which reduced the haze and fresnel rings and much improved the clarity. Turns out the facepad is abit thin for me, i need the lens to be alittle more away from my eyes to get the best clarity
Fov is only appreciated when you dont have it.
Almost no godray but there is fresnel rings.
It is actually good for movies because you can see the whole screen rather than 75% of screen if you dont turn your head.
Sde is reduced to you see a pattern, vs vive you see pattern and pixels.
If I dont have a hmd, I would buy 5k+ no hesitation, if I already own one I would hesitate for the upgrade due to price.
As for user experience, i felt it’s quite good, it’s not bug free and sometimes (not alot) required restarting service or reboot. But same can be said for vive. And it’s out for almost 3 years and still hiccup here and there.
Tracking is no different to a vive.
Distortion is non issue once you adjust your ipd right and use it for few days. I dont see it anymore.
