HTC VIVE Focus Plus All-In-One VR System $150 + Free Shipping w/ Amazon Prime

You serious? It's got a snapdragon 835 from 4 years ago. No chance.

My local MicroCenter has this for $80 new, and I still think it's not worth it. It's meant for enterprise so there's not much you could do with it. Just spend $150 on a used quest 2 if you want a headset.

VR dev here, unless you absolutely need this for a collection or a museum or you just want to fark with some out of date hardware/software stuff that also is no longer supported then go ahead. But this is not for anybody looking to get into VR or to experience VR as it is now. This is basically the HTC version of the Quest (free-roam all-in-one) before the Quest and mostly for the enterprise, Asian, and VR arcade market. They are now on the third version of this and even it is a year or two old now.

You can expect to not be able to play anything that you are thinking about and are heavily limited to the Viveverse scam software that mandates you subscribe for a year or else you can't use it. The few things that you will get to work will make you regret spending money on this.

A lot of the games are just shit or completely abandoned and this technologically doesn't even compete with a Quest 1 (which also isn't supported anymore and it is newer in relation) at this point.

My professional advice? Take that $150 bucks and go to your nearest pawn shop. You'll find a Quest 2 there for about the same price. Buy that and be happy that you did so. Get a quality USB 3.0 cable and hook it up to Steam. Now you can play the entire PC library as well as the standalone Quests titles and it still is current gen. The Quest 3 is for psychos like me who have to have the new thing, want to develop for it or people who want to mess around with some of the mixed reality stuff of which there is very little and no e beyond novelty to justify paying twice as much than a used Quest 2.

Hope that helps.

This or Vision Pro?

I bought this for $80 at Microcenter and am happy with my purchase. I have an AMD card and it works well using ReLive for Steam VR titles. I like that it has an OLED display and is more comfortable than a Quest 2 and 3 with the stock head strap. But at $150, a used Quest 2 is a better purchase.
