When you compare the Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2 to the Microsoft HoloLens 2 you can see which VR Headset is better. Let's take a look of the comparison, and see which model of VR Headset out ontop.
Having used both Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2 and Microsoft HoloLens 2, I can honestly say that each headset offers a unique virtual reality experience. In terms of their respective features and specs, there are pros and cons to both headsets.
When it comes to the Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2, its main selling point is its wide field of view at 83°. This means users will be able to enjoy a more immersive experience when compared with other VR headsets. Additionally, this headset has an impressive resolution of 640 x 360 px which allows for clear visuals when playing games or watching movies in VR. It also has Qualcomm Snapdragon XR1 CPU built-in which gives it great computing power and improved battery life as well as Android operating system for increased user convenience. On the downside, however, the headband design could have been better as it tends to feel uncomfortable after prolonged use.
The Microsoft HoloLens 2 stands out with its mixed reality capabilities allowing users to interact with their environment while in a virtual world. It also has Room Scale 360 tracking so users won't have to worry about getting lost while navigating through the game or application they’re using—a feature that's lacking in many other VR headsets on the market today. Furthermore, this headset boasts impressive visuals thanks to its 2048 × 1080 px resolution along with a refresh rate of 60 Hz which ensures smooth visuals even during intense action scenes or gameplay scenarios. The downside here is the relatively narrow field of view at 52°; although it doesn't affect user experience too much since you don’t get completely immersed like you would with Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2's wider field of view, it does make some experiences slightly less enjoyable than they could be otherwise due to limited peripheral vision while using this headset.
In my opinion, I prefer using the Google Glass Enterprise Edition 2 simply because it provides a much more immersive experience due to its wider field of view and higher resolution display compared to Microsoft HoloLens 2's narrower field of view and lower resolution display even though HoloLens does offer some unique features such as mixed reality capabilities and room scale tracking which makes navigation easier when gaming or exploring applications in virtual reality.. Nevertheless, for pure VR entertainment purposes such as gaming and movies I believe Google Glass Enterprise Edition2 edges out Microsoft Hololens in terms of overall usability given its featureset above all else .
