1832 x 1920 is the same resolution from the Quest 2, and fresnel lenses may come from that as well.

That effectively means it's Quest 2 optics with a Quest 3 GPU and color passthrough.

The premium Quest 3's lenses and displays are no doubt better, but for the entry level hardware this is still a good upgrade.

The better GPU will mean it doesn't need to lean as hard on "foveated rendering" where the center of the screen is at high resolution and everywhere else is blurry and upscaled with unreadable text. I say "foveated" in quotes because it doesn't know where your eyes are looking, only how your head is oriented, so if you want to see something in detail you need to point your face at it.
