Quest 2: The 8K Conundrum
Despite its prowess, the Quest 2’s display falls short of the coveted 8K resolution. With a crystal-clear 1832 x 1920 pixels per eye, this headset delivers an awe-inspiring 5K experience. But why no 8K? It boils down to the colossal bandwidth and computational muscle required. Pushing such ultra-high-res content would strain the Quest 2’s hardware, requiring a graphical powerhouse of a PC and an eye-watering amount of video memory.
