The ppi of this device works out at 615 ppi. I use my S6 Edge with my Gear VR and the ppi is 577. 615 ppi is not a significant enough improvement in resolution to overcome the screen door effect. Not even close to being worth the very considerable price tag. 1080P per eye at 90fps is the minimum spec required for me to pay for a stand alone VR headset.
Very poor effort Samsung.
Compare it to say, the HTC Vive, which is very popular and considered one of the top (if not the top) consumer VR device available right now. This device has better resolution than the Vive, is cheaper than the Vive, and doesn’t require base stations for tracking. I think this qualifies for more than a “very poor effort”. 🙂
As an active VR user, I appreciate your points, but this is not a good enough improvement to VR that it will aid in it’s adoption by overcoming current limitations. What is needed is at least 1080P per eye at 60+ fps.
Samsung are known to have 1200 ppi panels – exactly what is needed, that is why I say this is a poor effort. They could have done so much better as they already have the panels available.
Or to put it another way, this new device only offers a piddling 6% resolution improvement over what I am using currently, so where is the incentive for me to pay the price of a very good phone for just a headset? If they had offered this with 1200 ppi panels, I would have bought one. Do you know there is a Chinese (Pimax) headset due to launch in the new year that has 4K per eye at 90fps? With competition like that, Samsung need to do better.
“The report claims that Samsung demonstrated a high-resolution AMOLED
panel for VR applications. The AMOLED on display featured a 1,200 PPI –
much higher than Samsung’s current highest density displays which are 577 PPI. Samsung’s aim is to reach 1,500 PPI which will greatly enhance the VR experience.”
