In front of me are two VR headsets. They're practically identical; both versions of the Pimax Crystal Super, a high-end, tethered unit. Though for their near-indistinguishable appearance, they are different in one very important way: one is fitted with QLED displays, and the other, Micro OLED.

My job for the past couple of days has been to switch between the two headsets. Trying one, then the other, and back again, until my eyes hurt. I've tested a range of games, carried out a selection of tests, and jotted down plenty of notes along the way. We'll get to those, but if you want the shortened version, here it is: Micro-OLED is excellent, with a few caveats that I'll go into greater detail about below.
