The last time I tried to use vim in virtual reality was in 2014 with the Oculus DK2, which had a resolution of 960 x 1080 per eye. It didn’t look or feel good at all.

The latest devices from Valve and HTC offer 1440x1600 per eye, and the HP Reverb apparently does 2160x2160 per eye.

Can anyone report on recent experiences? Or take a guess as to whether or not one could code comfortably at that resolution?

Is there to work out what resolution you’d need to make the experience equivalent to working on a (small) 4k monitor, given the fact that the VR displays are much closer to your eyes?
