This looks brilliant but I have two questions, so when this comes out, if I buy this HMD can I plug it in, load up Oculus Home and play my current Rift games?
And can I use my Touch Controllers if I don't like the Samsung controllers?
This looks really impressive and could tie us over until Rift CV2 comes out.
Thanks in advance for answers 🙂

It's a Windows Mixed Reality headset so no go with Oculus Home or Touch controllers.

It's a Windows Mixed Reality headset so it can play anything from the Microsoft store and just about anything from the Steam Store. Apparently you can also run Oculus games with a WMR headset using a program called Revive but I have never tried this. Unless you really want to go WMR I would give this a miss. I started out with WMR but changed to a Rift +6 months ago. Best thing I ever did. The Oculus VR system is much more stable and Oculus support beats WMR support anyday imho.

Oh that sucks, well maybe I could get used to the controllers but if we can't play our games on Oculus Store, what can we play? Just Samsung games?
I thought HMD's are basically a platform like a PC, we should be able to play all games on all HMD's.
Can we not play Steam games either then? And what type of tracking does Samsung use?

You won't even be able to buy it in Europe I bet. You can't get hold of the other Samsung odyssey, so I doubt this one will be released in Europe..

The rift uses Samsung screens already and there is no reason I see why Samsung would not let their partners use this tech.

Am I dreaming? Is this real?
People have been saying that we won't reduce the SDE until we get 4K or 8K per eye and foveated rendering. This is huge.
If I can play Project Cars 2 and IL 2 without the SDE, that's a total game changer. This is huge for those of us who play flight and racing sim in VR.
Anyway, it sounds too good to be true. I'll wait until I see reviews.
But this will totally destroy Pi Max sales if it comes out soon.
Can Oculus copy this with their CV2? The worst case is that you have to choose between the better Oculus software and hardware and the better image quality of the Odyssey+.
