ASUS just rolled out a fresh pair of extended reality glasses designed for gaming and video playback—and the 240Hz refresh rate is no joke. This kind of hardware push matters for the Web3 space. As XR displays get smoother and more capable, they're becoming serious infrastructure for immersive gaming ecosystems. Whether it's onchain games, metaverse experiences, or decentralized content platforms, having mainstream manufacturers level up their hardware game creates real runway for adoption. The race for better displays and lower latency is quietly building the foundation that actual metaverse applications will run on.

240Hz this refresh rate is truly amazing, finally hardware that can keep up with our dreams By the way, ASUS's move this time is serious, the metaverse is no longer just a castle in the air Wait, will this thing also be as headache-inducing as other XR devices when worn on the head With onchain games paired with this hardware, the potential is mind-blowing Still, the same old saying, only when the hardware is in place can the ecosystem truly thrive

Is 240Hz really necessary? Playing a blockchain game isn't like playing CS, but on the other hand, the hardware arms race is indeed pushing the metaverse forward.

240Hz is truly amazing; finally, hardware can keep up with the imagination of Web3. --- XR hardware is coming, and only then will the blockchain gaming ecosystem have a chance. Just having applications isn't enough. --- ASUS's move is good; mainstream manufacturers entering the market means what everyone understands. --- Low latency is the key; a poor gaming experience ruins everything. --- The hardware arms race has begun. Whoever makes the experience smoother first will dominate half the game. --- It's called infrastructure in a nice way, but in reality, it still depends on whether blockchain games themselves are good. --- Let's wait and see user feedback to determine if ASUS's XR solution can truly be implemented. --- The number 240Hz feels like just another marketing gimmick. --- The metaverse comeback depends on this kind of hardware support; both are indispensable.

240Hz is really smooth, but the metaverse concept is still too far away...

Listening at 240Hz is amazing, but can it really drive the Web3 ecosystem, or is it just another hype?

240Hz? Are you really treating us as newbies? The hardware arms race has just begun; only when mainstream manufacturers follow suit is it a signal to build up positions.
