Pico 4 out soon?
- Thread starter Tykey
- Start date
Ok, very quick first impressions from initial setup.
Packaging 10/10
Unboxing 10/10
Battery access to controllers is pretty cool and makes it easy to remove and swap out.
No dead pixels or dust, however when I first booted the headset, I got an error that required a hard reboot.
Been fine since then. Updated firmware and setup the account was very easy.
Headset feels fine on my head, I can see what people are saying about the foam interface, but it's not too bad actually for me.
Just found in the settings you can add a toggle to the home menu to power on and off the headset.
Thats as far as I have got, but so far it looks great and feels ok.

ok i decided to power it on, after all, i got 14 days right ? 
first thing i noticed when booting up "PICO" it said, and i noticed it was actually very clear, it was really sharp. first thing it told me to do was WIFI, then it updated, got to the home screen and i was like FOV is an improvement and the Sharpness was better than the Q2
i don't want to buy anything at the moment, but i might well have to get VD to play all my games
isnt there another way of streaming ? like any built-in software ? or is VD the only way ?

Would any of you who have the Pico 4 recommend it for just standalone vr??
I had a quest 2 and was good but quite heavy and was giving my a sore neck using more than 30 mins.
I was waiting for psvr 2 news but the lighter pico with better lenses has me very tempted. I don't own a gaming pc so I'd use standalone only

Don't have a pico 4 yet but did you buy vd from the pico store or from steam? I think I bought it on the quest store because it says I don't have it on steam?
