  • Fantastic resolution, Good sound, No external sensors required
  • Tiny sweet spot, Issues with AMD-based PCs
  • If you're a gamer, you'll be tempted by the G2's resolution, the fact it supports SteamVR and that it has inside-out tracking.Unfortunately, the reality doesn't quite match up with expectations. It's a great headset if you can live with the small sweet sp...

  • Aside from a few niggles, the HP Reverb G2 great virtual reality option, made convenient by the Windows Mixed Reality elements, easy controls, and a comfortable fit.It certainly has some of the best visuals on offer, too, if you have a strong enough PC se...

  • but not the cheapest, either, Motion tracking lacks precision, Cable gets in way when not in use
  • The HP Reverb G2 is easily one of the best VR headsets out there thanks to its incredibly high-resolution lenses, which all but eliminate the screen door effect and really help with immersion. It doesn't quite have the accuracy of the Valve Index or HTC V...

  • Lightweight, Great audio, Antimicrobial materials, Incredible display resolution,
  • Tracking is a huge letdown, Narrow field of view, Some components feel cheap
  • The HP Reverb G2 is a very comfortable headset with fantastic audio and fantastic display clarity. The field of view is narrower than we'd like, but not a deal-breaker. The real tragedy is tracking. Microsoft's Windows Mixed Reality Tracking was the Achil...

  • wait to buy a VR headset? It's not a bad idea. With the Quest 3 coming later this year and the Apple Vision Pro in 2024, there may be many devices on the way that are better than what's here at the moment. VR is a technology that's still in flux, with co...

  • High resolution for the price, Comfortable headset and controllers, Works reliably with SteamVR
  • Camera-based tracking has occasional hiccups, Much more expensive than the Oculus Quest 2, even when factoring the optional cable for PC tethering, Windows Mixed Reality is almost completely dead as a VR platform
  • The redesigned HP Reverb G2 VR headset offers a more comfortable fit and reliable experience than its predecessor, while maintaining the same sharp picture and reasonable price. It lacks some of the competition's more compelling benefits, though...

  • Abstract:  The HP Reverb G2 is touted as the VR headset with the best screens. Compared to the Valve Index, Oculus Quest 2, and the HTC Vive Pro 2 for example, the screens on the Reverb G2 offer up the highest resolution. But does that translate to a great VR experi...
