Interesting, there’s a comparison blog at UnboundXR which is pretty positive about the Pico 4 Ultra (except the privacy side of things). Yet, no mention of when it will become available for purchase, while Unbound quite often has a pre-order option.

Also, here’s a comparison table including the regular Pico 4, from another article

Nice to see that Pico is becoming more competitive in its pricing.

Wonder how the wider availability of Meta’s HorizonOS will influence Pico’s options

Now this is interesting, native Gaussian Splatting support for the PICO 4 Ultra from PICO itself.

We have built a 3DGS rendering plugin for Unreal Engine 5.3, which we will soon release in beta. Our initial implementation is limited to the import and display of static 3DGS content, but we will be closely watching how you choose to use 3DGS to inform future additions.

We will follow up by open-sourcing this plugin after its release. This will give you complete freedom to hack on it as you like and to adapt it for whatever your specific usage may be.
