VR-Tek Windows VR Glasses, FHD Resolution - 2560x1440, Black

This is an excellent headset especially for the price. It only works for games that don't need motion controllers. It's ideal for racing games which is my favorite genre. I just followed the instructions along with some additional info posted on steam forums and everything worked perfectly. The screen is sharp and gorgeous. The only downside so far is the cable length is too short for my setup but that will be fixed with extension cables. The documentation is not very detailed but it is enough to get going, the drivers and "user manual" are in the included cd. Just had to make sure everything was updated to the latest versions. The controller is serviceable and is recognized as an Xbox 360 controller in windows but it's no where near as good as console controller, which I recommend you use anyway. Again, for the price, this headset can't be beat.

I got this headset for the goal of using it with my Kinect through Driver4VR. It works really well for that purpose, as it gives the headset an additional use outside of seated VR gaming. The display is very nice, but the soft padding on the headset is not the best. It is sorta lumpy, there are areas where it should have foam but are not. It is held on by velcro so getting an aftermarket replacement made is not out of the question. The drivers were a bit confusing to set up. The driver software is called HoloView, and the application itself would need to be updated (not the firmware) in order to obtain the latest SteamVR drivers which fixes odd crashing issues with SteamVR. After it installed the SteamVR drivers I uninstalled the program which frees up the bloatware the software also included. The headset has a Gyroscope and Accelerometer for head tracking but there is no 6 DOF tracking. There is a USB port on the top, so an aftermarket solution for 6 DOF might work. Overall, the headset is not bad, but not completely perfect either. I think with built in 6 DOF tracking (the manufacturer actually has a 6 DOF model but isn't sold anywhere) it would be a much better headset.

I really was expecting the worst when I got the WVR2, and it is the worst... when you get it. I was already expecting the terrible fish bowl effect from the lenses, and it almost made me regret my purchase. This is actually a decent headset as long as you have a pair of scissors. The tighter you squeeze your eyes to the lenses, the clearer your peripheral vision gets. I don't recommend just tightening the straps around your head to get a better image. First I cut the padding off the nose and under the eyes out because they apply the perfect amount of pressure on your face to give you migraines. Then I cut off two patches above the eyebrows, leading about a two inch sliver in the middle for your forehead, if you do all this, it brings your face closer to the lenses while making it more comfortable to wear. The only issue is that it kinda rests mostly on your nose. The screen itself is functional, you can definitely make out the pixels, and there is glaring motion blur when you rotate your head, but if you just want this for a casual sitting experience watching... videos, or just want a first vr experience, this is leagues above google cardboard or Samsung gear. People saying buying something cheap like this will turn you off vr, but I say it will only make you want more. I would suggest going to the WVR3 though because for the extra 15 bucks you'll definitely get a better experience than with my WVR2.

Just got this and have to say it works really nice. I thought for the price that my smartphone one would outperform this. But I was wrong. Don't listen to the naysayers about this one, it works and has a good image. You can wear glasses while using it. If you want to get started in VR but not sure where to start, get this if you have a Windows computer, you won't be disappointed. With this being in the same price range as the smartphone HMD's, you really can't go wrong with the price. I have the lower end one, and works fine on my system, which is about three years old and has no stuttering or tearing in the screen. When I plugged in the controller my computer read it as a Xbox controller, so you know it will work with most games you may want to play and Steam VR reads it with no issues. If you're on the fence about getting into VR do it with this and just skip the smartphone route. Because its only going to be as good as your phone.

I can not believe how clear is this head set, i use this model and the W3 with Aerofly 2 and Xplane 11 and it is breath taking. For flight simulator and racing games is perfect, i think the price has been an error becaise the real price was 179 for the w2 and 250 for the w3, There is no Foor Screen Effect in this head set, i bought also the HP head set for $449 and i have to tell u that besides the controllers a d the camera for some stipid games not worth it, The HP 1100 door screen effect is so bad and annoying specially after you get spoiled with this ones, The negative reviews must be competitors or people that are really bad using common sense, because as far installation it is really easy and the manual is specifying it really good. Advice search for the company VRTeck snd you will find the manual and latest drivers.
