- Cool! Maybe report back someday with a review post?
- I'm kinda confused so I want to see someone who is enough in the loop about the apple vr to explain this to me. If all it can do is watch movies and play 2d games and doesn't have enough battery life to watch a movie, why???
  
  You can plug it into an outlet when you’re stationary.
- Can I ask why you think hand tracking in Quest is underwhelming? For the Quest 3, it’s fucking incredible, it recognises individual digits and gestures in all lighting and scenarios I’ve tested. Which generation did you use?
The FaceTime Persona is probably the strangest part of the demo, but everything else looks very intuitive. Can’t wait to try out a demo in-store someday.
- Yeh, but I guess it is a reasonable solution to a situation where you are chatting to someone without a camera pointing at their full face and who is wearing goggles
- They match the refresh rate to the video so that the video frame rate is divisible. Supposedly there is a special mode where the displays run at 96hz instead of the normal 90hz when playing back 24fps video.
  30fps works fine at 90hz.
  
  Ocing the display to 96hz for 24fps video seems silly, you can interpolate frames to suit any refresh rate with no loss in quality these days.
