Cons

  • Support is doo doo
  • battery life on the controllers is really bad

This is the only VR on the market that you don't have to play with to get the best image and screen fluidity. In terms of the app, I have no objections, it's cool and it doesn't strain the computer as much as the Oculus application. When it comes to connecting, it only really takes 20 minutes of work or if we are efficient and have all the parameters for this VR, even 6 minutes

Pros

  • Very comfortable
  • Easy to connect
  • User-friendly application requiring minimal computer resources

Cons

  • Some games don't have support and you have to configure the controller yourself
  • Tracking that isn't the worst but certainly not better than the one we have in the Oculus
