Man, I would. I am 100% the target demographic, jumped in the 3D TV rabbit hole and loved it. Totally knew it was a gimmick, but didn’t care. Would have friends over for 3D movie parties.
But adding them to my Plex server sucked. TAB or SBS files were half-assed and the PlayStation I used took sooooooo damn long to freaking start the movie and skipping was an issue.
Yeah, very much looking forward to headsets with 8k panels. Most are up to 4k now, and it’s getting pretty good. If it stays at 4k for a bit, that would be fine. But it’s definitely an area where 8k will still be a very noticeable upgrade.
Even if the only short-term practical use for an 8k panel is how far away a 4k or 1080p screen would be clear to read in an augmented reality situation, that would be reason enough. But I personally will gladly lower quality settings to run VR games in 8k instead of 4k as well.
Maybe if they add 3D, people will buy them!

Forget 3D, I want smellovision!
Well they say all new tech is driven by the porn industry, so, um…
Yes.

Tbf one if the use cases for display technologies with high pixel density is vr headsets.
