I just watched this using the Spatial TV app om my Quest 3. I don't have an issue with its weight as such but I get pressure on my face after a while. The headstrap is by a company that I can't recall but it is much better than the original. For the last couple of months I have been stuck in a house 50km from home and the Q3 is more or less my only source of entertainment and internet connection. It and the sofa are in constant use... All things considered I'm not complaining. I haven't encountered the bugs you have. But if anything happens to it I will revisit this excellent informative video!
Pico 4 is usd200 cheaper than Quest 3. That's a price banner.
Also, don't forget to add 50-150$ for a decent 'strap' too, you need to buy for the Q3 also, else with the cheap Meta-'Strap' and the bad balancing you get headache fast.

I have both the Quest 3 and the Pico 4.
Truthfully, and despite the issues with passthrough and the "better" pancake lenses of the Quest 3, I tend to use the Pico 4 much more often when I can, and I absolutely use it for workouts.
The Quest 3's issues with balance and the binocular overlap are very nearly deal-breakers for me. Putting the Quest 3 on my face after using the Pico 4 is like sticking a brick on my face, versus putting on a hat that feels more or less the same at the front and the back. Also, and for some weird reason, I absolutely can NOT use the Quest 3 passthrough or Home functions if the refresh rate isn't at 90hz. That is, unless I want to get dog-sick within 10 minutes and stay that way for at least 2 hours after I take it off.
Yes, I had to use the AMVR "halo" enhancement to make the Pico 4 wearable for my face, but on I'm also about to be on my 4th head strap for the Quest 3. The otherwise nice halo strap I just bought for it (replacing the elite strap I bought before--which replaced the included "jock strap" that comes with the Q3) will NOT stay in place, and pancake lenses or no, it does make a difference in the clarity of the headset... to say nothing of the comfort.
Sincerely hoping the rumors about Bytedance making an "advanced" version of the Pico 4 are true. If they are, I'll be one of the first in line to buy it!
Nice comparison!
For next videos: anamorphic filter for pocket3
AMVR facial interface and an elite style strap will probably help a lot comfort wise. People seem to love the BOBOVR S3 if you have the money.
Yea, add 50-150$ for it to the 200$ the Q3 is more expensive then. It's a shame that Meta still comes with such headache-straps and bad balancing in 2024. The Q3 is all in all very disapointing, they could made it easily better but did not. Too bad that Pico/Bytedance has such stupid managers, not continuing with a P5.
Loved the non-biased review. As a Pico and Quest user, I love both... I mainly use my Pico 4 for PCVR while my Quest for standalone... since i play longer sessions on PCVR, the PICO surpasses it. WHile for standalone short fun games, the Quest and Meta's game library surpasses the Pico.
How many gigabytes quest3 did you have bro? 128 GB or 512 GB?
128
I plan on doing work with them, using them as a secondary monitor. Is that a good idea? How clear are texts? Would I be fine with Quest 2? Or should I just go with Quest 3 for the clarity?
I wouldn't use either for that, but the Quest 3 has the better clarity by a long mile.
pico 4 it's much better than the quest 2 for watching 3d movies???
Much better than the Quest 2 for any kind of movie, 3D and 2D.
@@Roos-Reviews well then , i'll search for it!!!thank you very much!!!
You are most welcome. I was searching for a better looking, more comfortable movie watching experience for years.
@@Roos-Reviews me too!!!i also have a very cheap chinese projector in my room, but it's not dlp, so i use vr for 3d movies!!! (i also had two 3d tvs , but i gifted them to my old parents, because i find active shutter glasses very inconvenient!!!)
Well if you give a little more effort to update a few things on the Quest3 you'll find that the Quest 3 is by far superior. I have both headsets and like them both, but the Quest3 is my favorite. Seems that what you describe with your Quest are some issues, I can't relate to. Today I got update 65 and it was just another improvement. I improved my headset with a halo-like headstrap and built in battery, which I bought for 20$ on Aliexpress. Facemaskd from AMVR and also knucklestraps from the same company. I have the 512 gb version and it is always hooked to the charger via the headstrap. That means it always is ready to use and updates come automatically. I use the Quest in one room and I never need to redraw it, no matter where I use it.
What do you recommend I update? I'm already on V65 and using a halo battery head strap.
@@Roos-Reviews then it seems that you did all you could do? Just don't understand your problems with instability of the headset? I can tell you, the Pico4 had a lot more complaints then the Quest3.
Yeah my experience has just been different to yours I guess. The Pico is super reliable and comfortable for me, but the Quest 3 has better visuals. I'm not into games, so comfort, reliability and visuals are the only things that really matter to me. I think the quest updates come too often and bring too many bugs. On the Pico, updates come seldom and the current firmware has been extremely stable for me. The Quest has been awful for stability. Right now I'm trying to watch a film but having problems getting sound to come out my Airpods Pro 2. I have to restart the headset to solve it. Every day I have problems with the headset that require a restart or multiple restarts.
@@Roos-Reviews Seems that the Quest is not a good device for you. Good that you have the Pico4 as well. Have you tried Moonplayer to watch movies with? It's a great apk
No update can fix the hardware and design choices they made sadly
Ive used pico and quest 3. Pico is much better for pcvr tbh. Especiqlly the fov. Its really immersive
I think the Pico's improved binocular overlap really helps immersion too. I just got home with my third Quest 3 after two returns. Hopefully this one will have fewer issues.
