I recently had the opportunity to review two of the top virtual reality headsets on the market: Microsoft HoloLens and Oculus Quest. Both headsets have their pros and cons, and I wanted to compare them side-by-side in order to make it easier for potential customers to decide which headset is right for them.

Starting with the Microsoft HoloLens, one of its main features is its 35° field of view which provides an immersive experience while playing games or watching movies. The 1440 x 1440 px resolution also ensures that you get a clear picture no matter what game or movie you are playing/watching. It also has room scale tracking and 360° tracking capabilities which makes it great for interactive experiences like gaming or creating 3D models. The 90 Hz refresh rate is great for ensuring smooth visuals when moving your head quickly in VR worlds. On the other hand, some people may find that the field of view could be wider as this limits their ability to take in more of their surroundings at once.

The Oculus Quest on the other hand offers 95° field of view, making it much better than HoloLens in terms of immersion and offering a wider range of vision when exploring virtual worlds. Its 1600 x 1440 px resolution provides sharp images even when up close and personal with objects in these worlds. Additionally, just like HoloLens, it has room scale tracking and 360° tracking capabilities so movement within VR environments feels natural and accurate thanks to how well it tracks your movements accurately across multiple dimensions simultaneously. One con with this headset however is its 72 Hz refresh rate which while still providing smooth visuals can’t compete with higher end systems such as HoloLens' 90 Hz refresh rate; but depending on how intense an experience you're looking for this may not matter much at all!

Overall after testing both headsets I found myself leaning towards Oculus Quest more because I felt it provided me with a more immersive experience thanks to its higher FOV compared to that of Microsoft HoloLens as well as its sharper visuals due to increased resolution capabilities over its competitor's system . However if you’re someone who isn't concerned about having ultra sharp visuals or high frame rates then Microsoft Hololens would definitely be a viable option too!
