Product Information

The main issue is that Pico is less experienced with building VR headsets than some of their competitors, and they have tried to go toe-to-toe with Meta, and their Quest headsets. However, at the time the Pico 4 was released, they just hadn’t got the experience or had enough time to iron out all the issues and raise the quality of their offering to compete directly with Quest 2.

Much of the discussion so far about Pico 4 has centered on the on-paper technical specs. We have a rundown of those with a comparison to Quest 2 already. But in this review, I’m going to talk about the experience those specs create when they all come together, what the device is like in real usage, and whether or not you should actually buy one instead of a Quest 2. Comfort & IPDAdemás la apertura del facial es demasiado ancha y se suele filtrar la luz de la habitación a través de los laterales de las gafas, que impacta contra las Lentes Pancake y en escenarios de poca luz estropean la inmersión. If you own a gaming PC though, you can play Beat Saber and Onward as well as PC VR exclusives like Half-Life: Alyx and Skyrim VR via SteamVR. Like Quest, Pico 4 has built-in wired and wireless PC VR streaming. It doesn’t work quite as well as Air Link, with more noticeable occasional stutters. But thankfully Virtual Desktop is also available on the Pico store, and it works just as well as on Quest. Conclusions The right Pico controller has a dedicated screenshot button, and you can hold it down to start a recording. For content creators and developers this is genuinely useful – it’s a massive time saver. The downside is it’s right beside the system menu button, so you’ll find yourself accidentally pressing the wrong one from time to time.

The system software inside VR is very similar to Quest. It’s clearly “inspired”, in the same sense as many Chinese Android brands are “inspired” by iOS. If you’ve tried a Quest and liked the interface, you’ll probably like Pico’s. If you didn’t, you probably won’t like this either.There’s absolutely no doubt that the visual clarity of the Pico 4 is hugely impressive. With screen resolution that matches the ever-impressive HP Reverb G2 at 2160 by 2160 per eye, pancake lenses that are dramatically better than any of the fresnel lenses used in competing headsets, and 2.6-inch RGB stripe TFT display panels that are impressively clear and bright, I’ve been consistently impressed by the visuals of the Pico 4. The main advantage of Pico 4 is the versatility it brings. You can enjoy all of the goodness of PCVR experiences, with a headset that goes toe to toe with most other PCVR headsets, but you also get the option of wireless PCVR streaming and very solid standalone VR headset performance.

But Meta has built-up a catalog of standalone exclusives you won’t find on Pico 4 including Beat Saber, Resident Evil 4, Population: ONE, Onward, and soon Iron Man VR. Meta has acquired 8 game studios over the past 3 years but has only teased 1 new game from them, so expect a range of new Quest exclusives in coming years. On the other hand, if you’re a hardcore PCVR simmer, you may prefer a dedicated PCVR headset that can offer better visual clarity, compression-free data transfer, and a wider FOV, without having to worry about the battery life of your headset. Whereas Quest 2’s controllers house its infrared LEDs in a ring in front of the controller, Pico 4’s controllers have them in an arc over your hands. The advantage is that you can bring your hands much closer together without bashing together plastic you can’t see inside VR. This makes interactions like rapidly reloading a weapon far less frustrating. Pico 4 has the ability to function as a PCVR headset by connecting it via USB cable to a VR-ready PC, but can also connect wirelessly to your computer via Wi-Fi. Both methods function well, and I have seen consistent improvement in performance over the past year. El facial que viene con la compra de PICO 4 es duro, muy duro, hay usuarios que se acostumbran a él, pero a mi se me clavaba en las mejillas y me era muy incómodo en sesiones de más de una hora.There is however a major issue with Pico 4’s comfort – but it only affects some people. Pico 4 has continuous lens separation adjustment to theoretically support a wide range of interpupillary distances (IPDs), which is great for visual comfort. But while the lenses can get as close as 58mm, there’s a good reason the spec sheet only claims support for 62mm – 72mm. To set the IPD below 62mm you need to accept a notice warning you that the lenses might “press directly against” your nose.

The index trigger feels as solid as Quest 2’s, but the grip trigger feels a little soft and spongy. It’s a big step up visually at first glance, but there’s a major caveat. Pico 4’s passthrough isn’t depth-correct, like the original Oculus Quest until a software update it received 5 months after launch. The Pico 4 controllers feel great to use and the build quality is excellent. They probably aren’t quite as ergonomically pleasant to hold as the Quest 2 controllers, but overall Pico has done an excellent job, and I’ve had no complaints.

Pico 4’s rigid strap is similar to Quest 2’s Elite Strap accessory and has the battery built into the rear – part of the reason the visor is lighter. This balances the weight significantly better than the default flimsy elastic strap that gives Quest 2 its front-heavy feeling out of the box. The downside to Pico 4’s strap is that it’s not removable, so you can’t choose a 3rd party alternative. Our facial interfaces are passively ventilated to allow hot air that accumulate around the lens to escape. This can reduce fogging issues and make more intensive sessions feel cooler. Pico 4’s app store is slowly but surely filling up with many of the top Quest titles. You’ll find games like Superhot VR, Blade & Sorcery Nomad, Demeo, After the Fall, Arizona Sunshine, Eleven Table Tennis, Walkabout Mini Golf, Space Pirate Trainer, and GORN. Here’s a full list. I created a long beam with pieces of Meccano, then threaded the original top strap through two pieces of meccano tightly bolted together.
