  • Super crisp 2880 x 1700p display, Future peripherals for Wireless VR and base stations, Front cameras to see surroundings, Flip-up headset design
  • Halo strap is uncomfortable, Expensive for its features, Display is hard to adjust
  • A hard price point to recommend. It's difficult to recommend the Vive Cosmos for $699 when you can get the Rift S for $300 less or the Valve Index for $300 more. The headset looks amazing when adjusted properly, but its sweet spot is small and it's just n...

  • The HTC Vive Cosmos is a sturdy (despite feeling flimsy), comfortable (when you manage to get it in position) and well-performing VR headset. It offers features like inbuilt headphones, good (for the most part) tracking and a high-quality display that is...

  • No need to install sensors, Bright and sharp screens, Motion tracking works well,
  • Far more expensive than Oculus headsets, Motion controllers feel dated, Headphones don't reach your ears,
  • The Cosmos delivers a solid high-end VR experience, but it's nearly twice the price of Oculus's devices, and it's not nearly as versatile as the Quest. And if you're looking for a money-is-no-object premium VR experience the Valve Index is a much better o...

  • Expensive, Clunky cable, Requires a full-size DisplayPort 1.2 port
  • The HTC Vive Cosmos VR headset is a technically impressive improvement on the original Vive, but it's very expensive and you still have to deal with a cable...

  • Expensive, Limited day-one software support, Controller ergonomics need improvement, Controllers' AA batteries don't last long
  • The HTC Vive Cosmos is a great VR headset, but it's held back by poor controller ergonomics. Still, with a comfortable fit and the elimination of base stations, it's a solid replacement for the original HTC Vive...
