Varjo XR-4 Mixed Reality Headset - 3840 x 3744 Pixels Per Eye

Varjo XR-4 Mixed Reality Headset is a PC-powered professional headset announced on November 27, 2023. Its dual mini-LED displays deliver 3840 x 3744 pixels per eye, while dual 20 MP cameras support color passthrough mixed reality.

Sharp Displays And Wide Viewing

The XR-4 uses two 3840 x 3744 displays with a 90 Hz refresh rate and 200 nits brightness, according to Varjo's XR-4 product information. The headset reaches a 120 x 105 degree field of view, with 51 pixels per degree at peak density.

Varjo lists 96% DCI-P3 color coverage and 98% sRGB coverage for the XR-4 display system. Automatic interpupillary distance adjustment covers 56-72 mm, giving the headset a defined optical range for professional users.

Passthrough For Professional Training

Mixed reality comes from dual 20 MP cameras and a 300 kpix LiDAR depth sensor. The LiDAR system reaches up to 7 m, while integrated 200 Hz eye tracking supports gaze-based rendering and interaction.

The headset is designed for professional software running on Windows and uses NVIDIA graphics hardware for its visual workload. Varjo's official product description places the XR-4 in training environments, including applications that require readable instruments and detailed physical surroundings.

XR-4 Compared With XR-3

Compared with the XR-3, the XR-4 expands the field of view from 115 x 78 degrees to 120 x 105 degrees and doubles stated display brightness from 100 nits to 200 nits, according to UploadVR's technical comparison. Camera resolution rises from 12 MP on the XR-3 to 20 MP on the XR-4 series.

The standard XR-4 launched at $3,990, while independent coverage listed the XR-4 Focal Edition at $9,990. A separate 2025 product listing places the standard edition at $5,990, so configuration, sales channel, and commercial terms affect the quoted US price.

Professional Headset With Clear Limits

The Varjo XR-4 fits enterprise simulation, industrial visualization, and other PC-based mixed reality work more closely than a standalone consumer headset. Its 90 Hz display, 120 x 105 degree field of view, 20 MP cameras, and Windows requirement define that position.

Its main limitation is the workstation dependency. The headset also sits above mainstream standalone devices in price, while its strongest features target organizations that need high-resolution visual output, depth sensing, and professional software integration.
