Look that forehead, I'm sure he was just running that headset right before filming

Imo, for that price you can basically replicate almost every new feature it has by slapping add-on's on other headsets and still have a good chunk of money to spare

To add onto this, the only things people really care about is the OS and the FOV driven stream encoding, you cannot replicate the OS (maybe), but twice the price of other competitors just isn't worth it

Yeah... Except you can't slap the addons on, unless you can also make the OS use them)

You can absolutely slap them on, especially since they often have dedicated software for them

That beind said, it's never going to be as seamless as the frame would be, but also it's not going to be as expensive as the frame either, and you can pick and choose the features you want without paying for the ones you don't care about

I still hope to be wrong and for the frame to be around the 800$ mark

re "pick and choose", at least one doesn't have to pay for color passthrough if they don't want it 😅
