the HTC vive cosmos hype train has
started and while it's not at full speed
it does seem that HTC is committed to
building up some hype before its
next-gen headset
I'm V Erin and Joe and on today's video
we are going to take a look at the
latest information from HTC about the
HTC vive cosmos and see if we can
actually start getting hyped for it for
the latest and virtual reality news as
well as how to's and reviews subscribe
to my channel and hit the bell to be
notified when I post a new video every
Tuesday so yesterday we were given some
specs about the HTC v cosmic and it's
resolution per eye as you can see here
we're looking at a combined resolution
of 28 80 by 1700 on an LCD display which
HTC says is an 88% increase over the
original vibe and we were also given
some details about its panels which is
real RGB panels increased subpixels 40%
improved lens clarity over the original
vibe with a reduced screen door effect
and as far as frames per second goes
you're just kind of looking at the
standard 90 which actually doesn't sound
too impressive when you consider that
the valve index can go 120 or even an
experimental 144 Hertz
but let's not forget that the recently
released grift s is only 80 frames per
second so 90 doesn't sound too bad but
at the same time not terribly impressive
but that was yesterday and today on
Wednesday June 26th 2019 we've been
gifted with a brand new trailer which
for me anyhow
is starting to build up some hype but
even HTC themselves have said that this
Trickle hype is gonna go on for the next
few weeks so taking a look at this
trailer so far we do not know if the
removable faceplate shown to us last we
indicate such a separate purchase is
required and judging by the latest
trailer it doesn't say anything other
than six cameras no asterisks or
anything like that we can also see it
here that the vive cosmos will feature
perfected a weight distribution which
I'm excited to know more about but
without more details it's kind of hard
to get really excited and check this out
over here how about going through a our
VR and mr so that's actually telling me
at least that this is not just a VR
headset it's also going to be an AR or
augmented reality
head set if you remember from the early
days of windows makes reality a lot of
people myself included thought that
meant we would be getting some cool AR
experiences I windows M are kind of like
the Jedi challenges AR kid but as we all
know that just turned out to be
marketing talked it all we got really
was a VR headset but here AR is clearly
shown in this trailer and that is very
exciting because while VR is of course
amazing AR it's just it's still so much
younger than VR is at this point and I'd
really like to see ara she come into its
own also so I'm hoping that the vive
cosmos really helps to bring that along
oh and one last thing we happen to learn
actually and that is that the HTC vive
cosmos is wholly compatible with the HTC
vive wireless kit in fact that was
confirmed by HTC themselves on their
Facebook page so with the latest
information and trailer are you getting
a little more hyper are you still pretty
much all rift or all index or do you
still really just not care about VR at
all let me know in the comments and be
sure to like this video as it really
helps out the channel and subscribe if
you would like more VR news reviews and
how to's in the future until next time
my name is VR ding Joe have an awesome
day
