The editors didn't like
Images could be sharper
VR sickness an issue with some games
No motion controls
Similar to that used car you've had your eye on
Everything on the Oculus Rift comes with a caveat. It's immersive virtual reality… but you need to buy a costly gaming rig in order to enjoy it. It comes with a pack-in Xbox One controller
But that's only
Expensive
Extra controller and sensor purchase
Need extra room now
The motion tracking lacks the HTC Vive's full-room scale. It takes a while to adjust to the controls. Total cost of headset plus controllers is expensive -- and that doesn't include the pricey gaming PC you need
Too
Motion controllers aren't arriving until later this year
No focus on room-scale VR
Pricey if you don't already own a £1000 PC
It's a fingerprint magnet
Not as enticing as the S7 Edge
You'll need a powerhouse PC
Not as comfortable as Vive
Controllers arguably more complex than they need to be
Prone to screen burn if left near sunlight
Requires a beefy PC
Some games can make you feel nauseous
PC requirements still aren't widely accessible
Isn't room scale out-of-the-box
Can't use your own headphones
Can cause nausea
Minimum PC requirements
Tracking setup may cause problems (depending on your layout)
