Meta Quest Pro Vs PICO 4 Color Passthrough Comparison !

A lot of people asked me for a comparison Passthrough between Meta Quest Pro vs PICO 4 and even though they serve different purposes here are the results.

💡 Meta Vs Pico facts: Meta Quest Pro produces stereo video output versus mono on PICO 4 which is not a 1 to 1 comparison but it is interesting to look at the results.

GOD DAMN PICO 4 LESS THAN 1/3 OF THE PRICE AND ITS BEAUTIFUL

[ARBESProductions]

I have a Pico 4 and I was surprised that it's being compared to the Quest Pro at all. Honestly, I was expecting a lot more for the Quest Pro for the price.

Quest Pro reconstructs the world as a 3D mesh, which will provide tons of MR possibilities. Pico 4’s is just a like recorded video.

[Guest_]

They both have flaws but oh my in terms of colour, the pico does it better. I am still a meta user and will continue to use meta headsets but its amazing that a headset costing about 400 bucks has better colour passthrough than a 1500 buck headset. However the quest pro was meant to have a depth sensor and with that being taken out, maybe the colour passthrough doesnt work as well without it.

[PauliPrints]

Just for clarification. The quest pro uses a separate scanner to scan for the colours, which isn’t the case with the pico 4, judging from the video, which is why the pick 4 looks better IMO

[Toast]

Only problem is that pico 4 does not have depth in the pass through

[neilrisley]

They look quite similar thru the lens via a 2D YouTube short. Does the stereoscopic depth on the Quest Pro make it much better? Which do you prefer?

[leonidbrandes]

One is a passthrough which enables depth reconstruction to enable MR experience. The other one is like a simple passthrough in your camera. It's not as if we're comparing apples to apples.

I hope the quest 3 comes with a depth sensor along with its colour pass through.

My P4 (latest os update 2023), passthrough image : fuzzy n grainy.

WoW It looks way better... What about games integration? Are occulus games compatible? Side quest? I might sell my OQ2 and get picos

[お.茶]

Pico is more good looking, and less washed out in a way, but lets not forget that it lacks the 3d depth as it is only has 1 camera

[theepicpeople]

Just got oculus quest 2 and now i see this, I WANT PICO 4 NOW GOOD BYE OCULUS QUEST 2

How does this passthrough on the Pico 4 compare to the Quest 3 mixed reality? My use case is Microsoft Flight Simulator using a knee board and a keyboard. Thanks

[triniboiange]

do you have a video comparing the two? As a musician I want to more involved in XR but not sure to purchase one of the items i'm seeing today or wait for say Apples commercial product which will attempt to do the same. I know each company is trying to make the headsets smaller and more appealing so i'd like to hear your opinion

[darkassassin]

I love this guys desk setup but more importantly the pico looks amazing

[murtazaahmadi]

I love the beetle between all vr company imagine if there was one company then you could see the greedy and price 😅

[ironmedsvr]

I heard pico 4 got an update to their pass-through. Can you compare them again?

[stefanw]

Can you make a youtube window and Spotify window while using pass through? And what if it's connected to your phone?
