Improved Resolution
It’d be remiss of me to ignore one of the big elephants in the room when it comes to PSVR. Despite its excellent price point, the headset’s resolution does come in at the lower end of the VR headset spectrum at a single 960 x 1080 display. It’s not like it’s unplayable, but the worlds you’re diving into could look that little bit richer and sharper if the PSVR 2 got a resolution upgrade.
To give you a comparison, the Oculus Quest — Oculus’ wireless, standalone VR headset — has a resolution of 1440 x 1600, the HTC Vice comes in at 1080 x 1200, and the Oculus Rift S’ resolution is 1280 x 1440.
That being said, the original PSVR does boast a max refresh rate of 120Hz, which is a comfortable joint second only beaten out by the Valve Index’s 144Hz.
If Sony could somehow find a way to marry together the excellent refresh rate of the original PSVR’s display, with a higher resolution screen, it’d really take the fight to the competition. Not to mention offer a far superior VR experience over its predecessor.
