VITURE Luma Ultra vs VITURE The Beast
Both sit at the top of VITURE's range, and they are built for different jobs. Luma Ultra is the one with cameras: a front RGB camera plus two grayscale depth cameras for 6DoF tracking and hand gestures, rated at 1,500 nits, with built-in myopia adjustment. The Beast has no cameras, but a wider 58-degree view, nine-level electrochromic dimming and a free prescription lens frame. Both use Sony micro-OLED panels at 1200p and up to 120Hz. Luma Ultra costs $599; The Beast $549.
Short answer
For films and games, The Beast gives you more picture for less money. For spatial apps, hand gestures or a camera on the glasses, Luma Ultra is the only one of the two with that hardware. Prescription wearers should compare the routes: Ultra's built-in adjustment covers nearsightedness only, while The Beast takes custom lenses in its included frame. Both connect directly to the same USB-C DisplayPort devices.

Questions people ask
Can Luma Ultra take photos?
VITURE describes its front RGB camera and depth cameras as being for 6DoF and hand gestures, and hasn't published a photo resolution. Treat it as a tracking camera unless VITURE documents capture.
Which is better if I have astigmatism?
VITURE describes Luma Ultra's adjustment as myopia only. If your prescription includes cylinder, The Beast's included prescription lens frame is the more flexible route, since it takes custom lenses.
