Worth picking up if I ' m really behind of Venom ' s story ? <| sep |> Anybody got any opinion on this one ? I ' m getting a 470 and this one is the cheapest , but lots of temp complaints really put me on edge . <| sep |> I can compare my Rift with my S 7 Gear VR all day long and never fail to come away with the clear impression that the Rift has a better display . Subpixel visibility is in the same ballpark for both , but in addition to better rendering the optics in the Rift diffuse the subpixels a little bit see without impacting clarity . In fact the clarity remains superior . Sure , the S 7 is not a Pixel XL , but it does have a 5 . 1 1440 p AMOLED display that is utilized efficiently by the 2016 Gear VR . So the comparison is not without relevance to you . In other words , while the Pixel XL might have a higher nominal resolution , the Rift will win in practice . Of course the Rift has issues of it ' s own f ## king God rays , so there ' s a gotcha everywhere you turn .
