CORRECTION: HTC now offers a $1,099 starter bundle which includes a Vive Pro HMD, two controllers, and two base stations.

Is the Vive Pro the next amazing step forward in consumer VR? Unfortunately we think not...

That's just rough.

"not for the reasons you might expect"

Why do they always say that. I don't expect any reasons...

I'll take that Vive off your hands...

I’m a VR enthusiast and the price tag to even me is absolutely bananas. HTC is being a real turd.

Just a quick feedback from a professional arcade: The headstrap lasted 2 weeks before the nob was worn out. The first time the headset dropped (yes it does occur in a arcade) the forward&back mechanism was broken, second drop the complete headset was broken. generell feel is no quality. we reverted back to the original vive. This is in Fusion Arena Zurich.

.. speaking of letdowns. Know who let me down. TUNNELBEAR! Letting customers down since 2018

This is gonna look so stupid to us in 20 years, when vr is a chip planted into our brain

[timdiersing]

I like how they give you it for free but your still brave enough to shit on it

[FTGTapGod]

With the pressure on your nose and the movement in game It sounds like you haven't adjusted the top strap correctly. I was having issues with mine until I realized the top strap plays a much bigger role on the Vive Pro than it did the OG Vive. Now I find it SIGNIFICANTLY more comfortable than my old Vive.

Dissapointing. I'm a rift user, but support ALL VR platforms. I was really hoping this would be a game changer

Is it just me or is it triggering he didn't take off the front protectors.

[GameplayandTalk]

Wow. For how little this improves things, it's crazy how much it costs.

Valve: Allow us to introduce ourselves

After using the Vive pro at someone else's house, these are my impressions. I have an oculus rift cv1 and quest. I personally love the strap design. The visual quality is great. The refresh rate is high. I don't like the wands but this can be fixed with knuckles. I have also tried a valve index and I'd say they have a very similar level of comfort.

When you wear the HTC Vive pro *You totally don't look like a cyborg*
