Valve Index 2 (codenamed Deckard) Standalone

Taking shape now is an OLED, DP + WiFi, battery in a puck, 2.5k per panel resolution headset. When I asked if the price would be under $2k they said "yes, you'll be surprised". I asked if can I divulge who is doing it and they said please don't. This info wasn't a rumour from a random etc it was a company employee quite high up. Edited to add it will be "small form factor" too, I'm sure they mentioned in the 200-300 gram range with the battery being in a puck.

So it will be like the BBS2 or Pimax Dream Air SE then. Hmmm who is this mystery manufacturer?

I watched a vid the other day from someone commenting about the Valve Deckard and they were rumouring 2880x2880 OLED panels. That's quite specific and doesn't conform to anything out there currently, so that's interesting if true. I'd be very interested in those specs. My next headset is OLED or nothing. Local dimming is dog ****.

maybe yes, although that wasn't mentioned, only that they are "2.5K res".

I wonder if it'll support lighthouse tracking as an option?

there was no mention of that so I doubt it, it will have inside out tracking.

I'd love to say who but said I wouldn't after asking them can I talk about it and them saying 'don't', I've seen 1 or 2 others comment about who this relates to on a discord server and word will soon spread anyway, I don't think anyone really knows the full proposed specs though (or as much as I've given here afaik).

I've seen user reviews saying that the mOLED panels used in the Big Screen beyond 2 are a bit smeary, at least at 90hz. I noticed the PSVR2 panels were very smeary (and had horrible mura). I don't think OLED is always as good as its cracked up to be.
