Microsoft announced Tuesday that yet another company is going to build a virtual reality headset for its Windows Mixed Reality platform: Samsung.
The Odyssey headset looks to be a cut above the other headsets from Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, and Lenovo: its dual-AMOLED screens are slightly higher resolution, at 1400i-1600 rather than 1400i-1400, and the field of view is 110 degrees rather than 95. It's also a little more adjustable, with a flexible interpupillary distance, to match the headset to your eyes.
The device will go on sale on November 6 and cost $499 with a pair of motion controllers.
