We'd like to know your thoughts on 10-bit color vs 8-bit color VR at DeoVR. The Meta Quest Pro has a 10-bit screen, making it capable of displaying 10-bit VR video and this looks set to be possible many upcoming new VR headsets too. 10-bit visuals can display up to 1.07 billion colors, offering 64 times more than the 16.7 million colors of 8-bit video. We have uploaded some sample footage and we'd like you to take a close look and tell us what you think! 

Here are the links to the footage to try out. Each clip is 10 seconds in length: 

Please download each clip and compare on your Quest Pro headset, or use the DeoVR app and enter the above links in the browser. Can you tell the difference between them in terms of color gradient? 

Creators might prefer 10-bit color as it has a major benefit for color grading, even if it set to be downscaled to 8-bit. However, from the experience of the DeoVR devs, we didn't find any notable visual difference from a user POV. We don't believe that the average user will spot the difference between 8 and 10 bits for a regular video, only some gradient surfaces, for example:

We'd like to hear your thoughts and experiences. Feel free to experiment with those samples, and try various settings on your VR headset and let us know. Contact us directly or join the discussion on the DeoVR forum
