I've done my research and am ready to make my purchase, but first I wanted to double check I wasn't making any blunders. I was initially waiting for the Frame as most people were I'm sure but cannot see myself spending $1k+ so re-evaluated. My primary use is going to be SteamVR, with sparing standalone use. If possible I'd like to avoid selling my soul to Meta so would like to avoid the Quest if possible. My current plan is:

Headset:
Pico 4 Enterprise bought new in box from Ebay with a 2 year protection plan. I live in the US. My concerns are getting it to function in the US, and the quality of the controllers.

Accessories:

• AMVR Face Cover
• MODJUEGO Controller Straps
• KKCOBVR Battery Strap
• USB-C Earbuds

Dedicated Wifi

Arris Surfboard Wi-Fi 6E Access Point

Tyvm for any feedback!

Hey fellow VR enthusiasts!

I’m a VR user from Japan, and I found the PICO Space Pro listed in Japan’s official radio certification database.

The listings include exterior and teardown photos. The color is different from the previously leaked unit, but the overall shape looks the same.
The direct links to the individual certification pages aren’t working, so please find the listings through the search page instead:

https://www.tele.soumu.go.jp/giteki/SearchServlet?pageID=js01

1. Find the certification number field at the top of the page, near the text “技術基準適合証明番号”.
2. Enter one of the following numbers. Enter only the number—do not include the product name or the parentheses. Search for each product separately.

- 202-JWM032 (PICO Space Pro)
- 204-B01175 (PICO’s wireless keyboard)

3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the green button labeled “検索”.
   Please be careful: reposting the photos from PICO’s Japanese radio certification documents is prohibited.

I made a quick video showing how to find the listings. I’d share the photos directly if I could, but reposting them is prohibited. Sorry about that!

It looks like there’s a separate compute pack!

I could only spot one fan in the photos, and the only chips I could identify on the headset-side board were 2.4 GHz/Bluetooth wireless chips and microcontrollers. That seems promising for keeping the headset lightweight.

One thing I’m a little concerned about is the lenses. They look oval-shaped, similar to the Vision Pro’s, which makes me wonder about the vertical field of view (VFOV). I hope PICO isn’t taking inspiration from Apple’s narrower vertical FOV as well.

Unfortunately, there don’t seem to be any dedicated photos of the compute pack—just a small glimpse of it at the bottom of one of the RF test report photos. So we still don’t know which Snapdragon chip it uses.

If it supports DisplayPort Alt Mode, I think it could be a really compelling option for a lightweight 4K headset, especially for PCVR.

I’m looking forward to the announcement! What do you all think? Have you spotted any other interesting details in the photos?

These are images of a keyboard that appears to be intended for PICO Space Pro
The keyboard itself will likely be tracked in VR, allowing you to see where it is located.

I’ve had my quest 2 for since launch (5 years) and that thing is beyond dated. THIS headset is also dated but feels as light as a feather, has pancake lenses *yet to experience them*****, face + eye tracking, and hopefully has better cameras.

I will 100% only be using this for PCVR since the enterprise model of the p4 doesn’t have the consumer marketplace I guess. I would’ve rather had the pico 4 pro but I didn’t know about that until I already ordered this one T_T

It’s charging right now and I’ll go through the setup process when it’s done… plus the pc setup 🫠

Edit: It certainly works. But based on my one time experience… /

- The controllers are definitely heavier than what I’m used to but I’m sure that will be ok (cope)

- Eye tracking works pretty well, not much to complain about there.

- Face tracking… is usable.

- The lenses are fine? Kinda warp-y on the edges but it’s clearer than my quest 2 so I honestly don’t care.

- The facial interface is horrid. Hurts mah face :(
Will be getting a new one.

- The headstrap is also horrid-ish. I’m spoiled by my quests bobovr strap.

Overall I think it’s ok 👍
