I'm thinking about getting back into vr, I have a rift s and quest 1. 4070ti pc. The black level difference on the rift s LCD compared to quest 1 oled is very apparent to me.
Is the quest 3 any better? Will I miss oled?
Maybe a psvr2 might be better. My quest 1 still looks pretty good but higher refresh rate and resolution would be nice.
Quest 3 blacks will disappoint. No way around it. But depending on what you are using VR for, a wireless headset with incredible optics opens a lot of doors. The blacks suck. But there's more to VR than blacks, and I'm as pro-OLED as they come. Just keep that in mind.
I think both headsets are a great deal, and they're both kinda complete opposites too, you could buy both and have completely different experiences from each one, good experiences.
Also, there's a pretty good chance headsets that fix the black issue from the Quest 3 and keep the clarity and freedom release in 1-2 years. Quest 4, Valve's Deckard which could be AMAZING, the LG headset using Meta OS that will run the Quest games, and so forth. A good chance this stuff hits pretty soon, at least info and is out 2026.
