Samsung is doing its best Miley Cyrus impression—entering the Windows VR scene like a wrecking ball with its Odyssey HMD. Announced in partnership with Microsoft, the Odyssey sets itself apart from other mixed reality headsets by upping the ante with 3.5-inch OLED display panels and more pixels.

The displays on the Odyssey use the same technology found in Samsung's crisp AMOLED smartphones. They offer viewers a combined 2880x1600 resolution (1440x1600 per eye) at 90Hz, serving up more pixels than even the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, both of which check in at 2160x1200 (1200x1080 per eye) and use LCD screens.
