At the weekend we met last price of HTC Vive and, as you might expect, moreover, it is more expensive than in the case of and so expensive now Oculus Rift. Toy HTC and Valve costs $ 800, which is 200 more than the Oculus Rift. It offers a little more powerful, but is so big, so do not pay extra for 200 bucks? PCs virtual reality will be the 2016 experience accessible only to the few. The world, and also in Poland. Price exceeds 2 thousand. gold for Oculus and well over 3 for HTC Vive is really a lot, especially if we add to this the cost of yet able to handle all of your computer.
Quite unexpectedly a big competitor Oculus and HTC may be Samsung, which just introduced new models of its flagship smartphones. buying for the next few days in pre Samsung Galaxy Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge gets in the price Gear VR goggles, so you can save a good few hundred dollars. This pleasure costs, depending on the model smartphone, 3200-3600 zł. Still a lot, but get everything in the package – VR goggles, display them on the image equipment, and even gaming package. Of course, not “those” games VR, which we look forward, in the style of Adrift or EVE: Valkyrie, a variety of mobile titles. Even though this proposal Samsung, especially now, with the pre-release offer, it seems really interesting and it is not in my opinion anyway, , according to Kyle Orland with arstechnica.com that goggles Gear VR failed in the marketplace, so they are now given away. Distribution is the most effective investment in commitment to each customer, even here there is one “but” – the resolution of new phones Samsung.
I’m surprised location in Samsung Galaxy S7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge sensor with a resolution of 2560 × 1440 pixels. In normal use, the phone is more than enough, looking at the screen from a few centimeters through the lens goggle VR does, however dull. Playing the top levels earlier Samsung phones with Gear VR resolution was the main thing that bothered me, and for the next few months, unfortunately, nothing in this matter will not change. A pity, because already last year, appeared on the market Xperia Z5 screen 4K. Very clearly opting for VR Samsung set while at the same time on the same screen parameters as last year. Big disappointment and it’s probably just my opinion.
Do you see sitting on the right side of Mark Zuckerberg your MacBook on your lap? And his face? But seriously – the above photo of the weekend conference, Samsung in Barcelona spread around already world, showing that with goggles on his head virtually nothing of our surroundings to reach us. Funny, but also a bit scary, and your mind’s eye I can see the tabloid headlines like “Addicted to VR did not see how next to his child …” and the rest dopiszcie themselves.
cutting off but at this point this digression and back to Samsung – Korean company left Zuckerbergowi audience of PC Master Race can with Sony to fight for really large share of the market VR, dropping finally podium popularity cardboard Google cardboard.
Smartphones Samsung are expensive, but they are not used only for games, purchase them so you can still defend the family budget . We do not know how much it will cost to PlayStation VR can only guess that some 1.5-2 thousand. zł, but with some time console purchase or not it turns out to be so dramatic hole in the budget, such as the Oculus Vive. Everything indicates, however, that later on they come out while users are “early adopters” in the spring pounce on the VR goggles.
