Well, I mean, it's twice the resolution (2160 vs 1080), half again more on the refresh rates (144 vs 90 Hz), weighs 150g less (409 vs 555 g) and it doesn't have fresnel lenses - if the whole "completely wireless, lighthouse-free, works standalone or with your computer and can stream" wasn't enough of an upgrade lol. It is for me, I put myself on the list for a 256.

Aside from the tether, which is just a pain in the ass, I won't miss the screen door effect and the god rays.
