Reply to comment by LilOcean in What must be done for VR to go the way of the everyrday smartphone? by skylyfriend

We need GPUs measured in at least hundreds of teraflops (and teratextures, terapixels/s), much faster single-thread CPU performance, 210° field of view, 240 Hz, at least 8K per eye and full eye and face tracking. All of that helped by foveated rendering, upscaling and interpolation. By then, VR will be quite decent, not so bad. Perhaps it is going to happen in the 2030s.

this would be the dream, 210 degrees field of view in a small package will be a challenge though, I hope we dont have to wear a heavy pimax style headset to experience this haha.

If VR is 100-110°, then I'm staying with PC monitors, just larger, with higher resolutions, better colors, better contrast and higher refresh rates.
