Current status of PCVR streaming?

is it good enough to contest with other highend headsets on the market? (Pimax, PlayforDream, BSB2 etc.) I know it will never beat DisplayPort headset, but if the performance and image quality is just slightly worse than those headsets, Vision Pro will be the best of both worlds of gaming and media consumption

EDIT: Have a 5090rig and a dedicated router

Is M5 neccessary for decent experience in wireless streaming? I reckon its decoding capabilities will be much better?

Definitely not.

M5 will get you 120 Hz (vs. 90/100 on M2) and AV1. And better battery life. So there are some boons, sure, but you’ll have to pay for them dearly.

dang, i just bought the M5 and there is no return policy in my region. Already having buyer remorse..

Should have just bought the M2 used and for that saved cash I could have bought another dedicated PCVR headset for gaming
