Incredible
Immersive free-moving VR
Intuitive controllers with good battery life
Solid selection of games already available
Nothing else quite like it
Nearly everything. The Vive remains the best virtual reality headset on the market
Bar none. The fact that it allows for room-scale virtual reality should sell it alone
But the fact that it does so in a way that's more believable and fluid than other he

The editors didn't like
Setup is far from straight forward thanks to sensor placement
Occasional crashes when installing
Room Space requires a large area to play in
Headphones not built-in
Neither cheap nor simple
Inevitably bulky & cumbersome
Very few great games
Pain to set up
Software is buggy
Expensive and needs lots of space
Not to beat the proverbial horse here but
Despite all the positives I've mentioned here
Only a small handful of gamers will get to experience VR on the HTC Vive – not because they don't want to
But because $800 / £689 / €899 is just out of their price
Hefty price tag
Initial setup is fiddly
Requires working knowledge of PC setups
Won't work with gaming laptops
Heavier
Less secure on your bonce than Oculus Rift
Fiddly firmware and a mess of cables
Currently lacking fully formed games
Very expensive
Need lots of room for Room Scale
Set-up may involve holes in walls
Slight stuttering
Games aren't polished
It requires a high-end PC to run. Long wires and lots of equipment take time and space to set up. Steam VR offers a lot of software but it isn't always beginner-friendly
Expensive
It's a fingerprint magnet
Not as enticing as the S7 Edge
Most expensive headset on the market
Still aren't quite enough killer apps out there
So. Many. Cables
Requires a lot of space
Cabling can be awkward
Lack of standout games and apps
Bulky
Needs to be tethered to PC
Requires a powerful PC to run
Convoluted installation process
Headset cord can get in the way
Field of view isn't wide enough for full immersion
Headset can get sweaty
Clearing space can be a pain
Especially in smaller British homes – but it is worth it
Set up can be a bit fiddly
Steam VR still crashes
Lens contours can occasionally be seen in scenes with bright light sources
Abstract: HTC'nin Steam işbirliği ile hazırladığı yeni nesil sanal gerçeklik kaskı şu ana kadar sunulmuş en farklı deneyimi vaat ediyor. Özel olarak oluşturulmuş alanda denediğimiz kaskı sizler için rakipleri ile karşılaştırdık...
Abstract: Je to už viac než rok, čo sa headset Vive začal predávať. Za ten čas prešiel menšími úpravami a nedávno takisto výrazne zlacnel. Dôvodov, prečo Vive obzvlášť dnes stojí za pozornosť, je mnoho. Všetko sme si vyskúšali a postupne to budeme analyzovať v našo...

kompletné snímanie postavy, množstvo dostupného softvéru, podpora Steamu, vychytané detaily na orientáciu v priestore, kopa žánrov – hry, zábava, poučenie, hmatová odozva v ovládačoch, síce plastové, no odolné vyhotovenie, po zlacnení konkurencieschopná
robustný kábel môže zavadzať pod nohami, vysoká hmotnosť headsetu
HTC Vive je skvelé zariadenie a nedávno mu dosť výrazne klesla cena. Ak hľadáte bránu do sveta virtuality, je to tá najsprávnejšia voľba. Výhoda je komplexné snímanie vášho tela, headsetu a ovládačov. Vďaka tomu je váš pohyb v simulovaných svetoch veľmi p...

Abstract: V rámci našich návštev viacerých veľkých výstav a konferencií sme mali možnosť vyskúšať vývojárske verzie všetkých „veľkých“ VR okuliarov.V prípade Oculusu Rift sme testovali prototyp, ktorý je základom spotrebiteľskej verzie. K dispozícii sme mali pribli...
Indrukwekkende ervaring, Elke beweging haarscherp gedetecteerd, Comfortabel voor brildragers, Gigantische Steambibliotheek
Draagcomfort na lange sessies, Geen geïntegreerde hoofdtelefoon, Snel starten is lastig, Headset heeft drie kabels nodig
De meest indrukwekkende virtual reality-ervaring is zonder twijfel de HTC Vive. Bewegen en handelen in VR zoals in het echte leven is bijzonder… zolang je geprikkeld blijft...

Knappe VR-ervaring, Vloeiend beeld, Ruimte om rond te stappen, Intuïtieve bediening, Goed aanbod software
Prijs, Vereist een stevige grafische kaart, Kabelstreng
Ja, gamen in VR of zelfs gewoon dingen doen in VR, het kan opwindend zijn. En we zijn na twee uur geen seconde misselijk geweest, iets wat ons bijvoorbeeld wel overviel met de Samsung Gear VR. De huidige generatie games doet soms wat speels aan, en de v...
Abstract: HTC Vive je verjetno najbolj pričakovan “headset” oz. sistem za doživljanje virtualne resničnosti, takoj po Oculus Riftu. No, ker so pri HTC-ju pred nekaj tedni začeli s pošiljanjem prednaročnikom, vam sedaj predstavljamo naše prve vtise ob uporabi.Vive u...
