Say what you will about Meta, but you have to admit the “software unlocks” over the lifetime of the Quest 3 have been ridiculous. How do you go from 120hz at launch to 207hz without hardware changes? Almost double the refresh rate. Clearly, the panel could do it, but I’m so curious about the lineage. It’s not just the display either, the GPU clocks are also ~25% higher than launch. Were the engineering teams just extremely conservative? Or was there just enough real-world headset data over time to realize “huh, we actually have a lot more headroom than we realized”. I’m really struggling to think of any other consumer product that gained that much of a bump over its life. Sure, I think the Nintendo Switch boost clocks got a *little* higher; but nothing like this. Can you think of any other consumer examples like this? I’m honestly very curious.
