Nagisa Mitsuki has one title in 8K, RSRVR-014. It hasn't posted here, I don't know why.. Personally I don't like it, there are a lot of clothes all over the movie, and the rest are scenes in the bathroom...
I have some VR movies like that. You can easily skip the first part because there is no sex at all

Just some update on hardware:

I got my Meta Quest 3 today and am pretty impressed.

Passthrough is really good (much better then Pico 4 and Quest Pro, thanks to the high quality sensors and depth sensor).

I did some JAV Tests and can definitely recommend the headset:
  • biggest plus are the lenses. huge sweetspot and very good edge2edge clarity - so every part of the video is very clear and nothing blurred (compared to the quest2 were mostly center is sharp but on the sides sharpness decreases. also if the headset moves by accident it will get blurry)
  • unlike other pancakelens headsets like the quest pro or Pico 4 the headset runs on 120Hz (which is important for a stutterfree playback of the videos)
  • Heresphere works on the headset without problems. The player recently added sharpening which was really great for 4k videos but unfortunately i had stutters when sharpening was applied while playing the videos with a 1,5 resolution and 120hz. The new faster processor handles everything without problems. I was actually suprised how much difference sharpening makes on 8k JAV (which is no problem at all for the quest 3)

It is good news that with Quest 3 the videos look better. Let's see if it sells in Japan, and the Japanese start to forget about phones to watch VR, and finally all VR movies are offered at 8K resolution.

The sharpening greatly improves the 8K videos, they have the advantage that having more resolution, you can apply more sharpening without halos or defects.

How is it practical to regularly watch VR using a phone (assuming its inserted into a head vr mount)? I tried it and while it works, it is such a pain in the ass if you want to skip forward or skip back to rewatch something. Is there a better way to control it or do those users just watch straight through?

I recently got a Quest 2 and the VR experience is 1000% better not just from the image quality (which def could be better) but just from being able to control playback.

Some head vr mount come with a remote control, I guess they use that.

But nowadays using a phone to watch movies in VR is very outdated, because the screen is not ready for it. The pixels are big, they emit too much light to the eyes, and they are not optimized for VR.

The Quest 2 are cheap, it's worth buying because they image quality is much better than a phone, and are more comfortable to use. It is a worthwhile expense if you like VR porn.

I could be mistaken, but the closest I've ever heard of is one where they apparently forgot to mosaic one of the sides.
I've only seen this once. I believe it was in FSVR-11... part 2. Completely uncensored for 5-10 seconds. The first time I saw it, I was a bit shocked. I do wish this would happen more frequently. :)

I'm just getting started with VR after getting a Quest 2.

From what I've read, Skybox is the best for viewing downloaded videos? Any tips or other options?

So far, I've tried it out at some JAV tube sites. I liked missav.com for regular 2D JAV because its recommendation engine is really good. And they have a lot of VR JAV also, but they are always only the first 20-40 minutes of the release, which means usually it's just the setup and teaser portion and cuts off around when the action starts. They are also limited to 720p which looks very rough in VR and also you have to manually select 180° VR and side-by-side (and if an ad pops you out, you have to do it again) so this isn't a good choice for VR.

I found that sparkbang has a custom immersive experience mode for watching streamed VR and it works great, best I've seen so far. When you enter the video, the first time it asks for permission to enter immersive but then every video after that, automatically enters immersive. Their streams go up to 1080 or 4K so, while it's highly compressed, it looks pretty good. When you click the controller trigger, it pops up a timeline interface were you can point and jump to the section you want. Other than not letting you click the thumbstick to jump ahead, the interface and experience is really good.

EXCEPT EXCEPT EXCEPT, while they have quite a lot of JAV VR's on their site, none of them are named well with the codes and most don't have actress names or any useful info. I'm assuming this is to make it harder for takedown requests, but it also makes it nearly impossible to find particular videos or actresses. Some have the letter code without number or a company name but many have just random "sdkjtowf" titles. And to add to that, since many VR's are too big and get split across a few parts, their suggestion algorithm is so bad that if you are watching "askdjalkj-1", there's a good chance that "askdjalkj-2" won't be in the suggested or related next videos. Or it might jump to -3 without -2 being listed.

So any other suggestions for tube sites with good quality VR, good viewer experience, and better organized?

I use Skybox. I tried Heresphere but I'm not a fan of the interface. I use Skybox for JAV and western VR porn and it works perfectly.

I would suggest downloading the VR file instead of trying with streaming. Because files on streaming websites like spankbang are compressed so you already loose a lot of quality right at the start.

HereSphere gives you the best image quality, with an excellent sharpening option, many options to adjust the size of people, if you see them too big or too small, etc. It is the best by far, but as darksider59 says it is not very intuitive. I think there is a demo, download it and read the help guides. You only need half an hour and once you know how it works, you leave everything configured and you don't have to touch anything else. The effort is worthy because the experience is much better than with other players.

Never use streaming in VR, the image quality is very bad. At 720p you see everything blurry, it's like watching a movie in VHS when you could watch it at 4K.... In VR realism is the most important thing to feel like you are next to the girl, and you don't get that at 720p. You get it at 4K and especially at 8K. Download some video at 8K, run it from Quest 2, without streaming, and compare....

Are skybox and heresphere both available in the meta app store? not yet familiar if quest allows sideloading or not.

I get that downloading is the best quality, but it takes a bunch of time/effort to get the whole thing and then for some of them it just turns out to be not your thing. I'm actually fine with the quality of many of the ones at sparkbang, but it's just too hard to find the whole sequence or even find one that you liked again later. So if anybody knows better sites for VR streams then post 'em here please.

What do you mean heresphere can adjust the size of people? like adjustable distortion compensation? One thing that bugs me is when they come in close for a kiss, it is nice but they usually turn into a cyclops because the eyes merge together. Is that normal or does that not both people?

I don't have Quest, but yes...

VR movies are shot with a fixed IPD, i.e. the distance between pupils. This is usually the most common value, 64 or 65 mm. But if your IPD is higher or lower than that figure, you see the girls bigger or smaller than normal. I have a high IPD (68), so I have to adjust all the movies with the player, to make the girls a little smaller, because I see them too big.


One thing that bugs me is when they come in close for a kiss, it is nice but they usually turn into a cyclops because the eyes merge together.

Well, this is the same as in real life.... :) In reality when you kiss a girl she is too close and your eyes can't focus, that's why you see her double. And that's why we instinctively close our eyes... So it's the normal thing.

In VR (and real life), the trick in kissing to see it well, is to close one eye...

DSVR-1355 was posted earlier today, I saw that you noticed it aswell as an upcoming release when I was catching up on this thread.

So sad to see her in this state, I looked at the timestamps on it and it’s just like before. When she's laying on the bed she looks like a corpse, like someone who has starved to death in some prison camp. And yes, they actually photoshop the cover to tone it down.
Looks like they used blur to smooth away the bones jutting out.

On the other topic,

I have a Quest 2 and Heresphere is the best player by far. It's free, you just get a small prompt in the settings menu once in a while. Good amount of settings, but sharpness, saturation and zoom is all I need to use really. Resetting the view and eye alignment is easy aswell. It's not complicated at all.

Just need more Lesbian VR now, been watching URVRSP-245 a lot in the meantime

It is awesome. A pity is a one-in-a-decade title... :(

This week SOD VR has releases another "lesbian" movie, but I don't like it. It's a "you're the girl" movie, and since it's POV, you don't see anything. It seems stupid to me, and now they won't release another lesbian VR for two years.... :( Lesbian VR must be non-POV. SOD VR filmed awesome lesbian VRs years ago, now this crap... :( At least they could have filmed a non-POV scene, but nope, all 3 scenes are a clone :(

Yes you can with a Quest 2. There is an app called SideQuest. I use it for custom stuff or removing the video files. Easy to use and a lot of tutorials on Youtube.

I get that downloading is the best quality, but it takes a bunch of time/effort to get the whole thing and then for some of them it just turns out to be not your thing. I'm actually fine with the quality of many of the ones at sparkbang, but it's just too hard to find the whole sequence or even find one that you liked again later. So if anybody knows better sites for VR streams then post 'em here please.
If you don't have a good internet connection I can understand that. Maybe check the screenshots available for the movie before downloading it. For example, I take a look at them to see if the camera angle is fine, not too much sex with clothes on or just "talking, fingering".
Like you said, files can be deleted on streaming websites, so having them on your network is more convenient if you want to watch them again later. Also, a lot of time, there is no info about the videos on streaming websites, especially for JAV. JAV subreddits are full of requests asking for movie IDs from tube websites.

So sad to see her in this state, I looked at the timestamps on it and it’s just like before. When she's laying on the bed she looks like a corpse, like someone who has starved to death in some prison camp. And yes, they actually photoshop the cover to tone it down.
Bad diet, probably fucked up personal life (well, more than the average porn actress I would say lol) and you end up like that.

I guess its a once in a decade title for a girl :) Reminds me of SDMU-552.

When the body doesn't get nutrients from food it starts eating itself to keep you alive. Eventually you end up like that, nothing good comes after that.

"they won't release another lesbian VR for two years"

What do you mean by that....whaaat? :O

SOD VR has only released 4 lesbian VRs in 4 years. The last one was DSVR-1120, released half and a year ago. Now this one. So the next one, in 2025... :(

I'm envious of you guys and your new gear and 8k.

I'm still running Rift CV1. It's not the best but it's still jaw dropping most of the time.

Unrelated side rant:
So I had posted that I had found a new favorite girl but having a hard time finding good VR titles with her. Tsukino Runa / Luna.
I really like her cutting scars (I assume cutting) and the one I had found was pretty great... Unfortunately in most of the videos I've found (VR and flat) she's wearing sleeves (either lacey or like a normal top) covering her forearms. I don't mind clothing sometimes when it fits a theme or is a good aesthetic but damn it's rough seeing them covered like 90% of the time. Especially in VR when it's right there.

She apparently has some uncensored work using different names, I might have to see if anyone in the regular section can help me find them, I haven't had any luck.

As far as I know, even with those glasses you can watch 8K videos, if you have a PC with a good graphics card. Even if the resolution of the glasses is much lower, 8K video looks much sharper on any display.

Most modern glasses like Quest 3 or HP Reverb G2 are 4K, but videos are released at 8K because they look much sharper and with more detail than at 4K.

but having a hard time finding good VR titles with her. Tsukino Runa / Luna.
I like her, too. She has shot many VRs, and in quite a few she is completely naked. Search here al Akiba "Tsukino Runa VR", and you will get many. Look at the pictures and you can see if she is wearing clothes or not.

I hate clothes, and there are more and more of them in JAV VRs. It sucks, between the censorship and the clothes, it's like watching Netflix, not a porn... :(

I don't know of any uncensored Tsukino Runa movies, do they exist?

According to this. https://jav.fandom.com/wiki/Luna_Tsukino
I wonder if it was work at a TokyoHot type company, website exclusive.

That must be it... the computer I'm running things on doesn't seem to handle huge files well, also the h265 encoded ones are also an issue... I assume it's probably driver related.
