Got a source for the "forces you to subscribe" bit? Everything I've seen says that part is optional.

Also, even disregarding the extra focal-spot screens, you're wrong about the resolution. It's the highest of all headsets that don't have insanely wide FOV's like the Pimax8K, by a long way. 2880 x 2720 per eye (Varjo VR-3) > 1832 x 1920 per eye (Quest 2) > 1440 x 1600 per eye (Vive Pro 2) ~= 1600 x 1440 per eye (Valve Index)

Just to eliminate any doubt, the same is also the case for the VR-3 and every other Varjo model:

Fair call. I guess I cast doubt on that because I knew the resolution assertion was wrong.

The TOS says that the minimum subscription length is 1 year, so that brings the absolute minimum cost to US$3990 for the VR-3.

$2000/month is wrong, too. It's $750/year.
