Opinions from the HTC Vive Cosmos
Yandex.Market data
Advantages:
Image quality, ease of setup and installation, sound quality, tracking accuracy of body, head and controller movements. the ability to connect other headphones. Low weight helmet. Free access to many games out of the box
Disadvantages:
The wire is short, the image is "hazy" at the edges of the view, and the inability to bring the lenses closer to the eyes. Not very comfortable earbuds, when you put them on, they snap into the raised position (maybe my head is too big?). It is impossible to project stereo video or vr content from a web browser into a helmet without dancing with a tambourine (in fact, I did not find a normal solution). With Oculus, everything is very simple. I hope they fix it.
Comment:
Someone notes the high weight of the controllers. I didn't notice it. I did not notice any problems with tregging. The only drawback of such a helmet will not work in a dark room, but for me this is not a problem. there is a prospect for the development of a helmet with replaceable panels, a wireless adapter ...

Advantages:
It is worth noting that I took the helmet under a small apartment A huge advantage was the lack of base stations, the helmet easily and quickly connects and does not bind to the location I did not find any complaints about tracking, although I move in it quite sharply) The sound is above all praise, only the picture interrupts it The image is delightful) I'm already used to the folding visor, it's very convenient in games at home, and just when the phone rings, you can quickly see who and answer without removing
Disadvantages:
Anyway, the wire interferes, I know that there is an adapter and I myself was stupid and did not buy it right away So this is not a drawback, but rather the next development step))
Comment:
I am satisfied with the purchase, I like its modularity, collapsibility I will gladly add and update it Special thanks to the company for the batteries in the controllers As for me, this is very convenient) I have already encountered several times that during a long game you forget about charging and I know how my friends complain that they finish playing and are waiting for charging .. I just change the batteries and continue playing) A well thought-out solution for the home)

Advantages:
Not an expensive headset of good quality. You don't need to equip a special space, which is a huge plus for a home. Adjustable distance between lenses
Disadvantages:
Doesn't work in daylight - you have to cover the windows. Expected HDMI but only Display Port. Probably, this is the norm, but one must bear in mind when choosing a video card. The built-in microphone would come in handy for VR chats. The distance to the lenses is not regulated, glasses may be needed if you have -3 or more (I have not tested it on farsighted, but, logically, from +3 it will not be comfortable anymore).
Comment:
The attachment on the head is quite specific, you have to tightly clamp the "rim" so that the "centering" of the lenses does not fidget or get lost. Because of this, the head starts to ache after a while. I admit that somehow I dress her in a wrong way :) The controllers, of course, are lost when you take them out of the field of view of the cameras located on the headset. May be a problem in some games. But this is a price to pay for the lack of external sensors that need to be placed in the corners of the gaming area, as in other headsets. IMHO, for the house - ideal.

Advantages:
After the previous "virtual reality systems" I am glad that you do not need any additional sensors and something somewhere to fix. Just connected to a laptop and after installing the software, you can use it. Enjoyed playing Half Life)
Disadvantages:
There was no mini-dp-dp adapter in the box (you need it if you connect to a laptop, not to a PC), I had to buy it for 350r. yourself. But they say that the adapter is already in the new batches)
Comment:
It is comfortable to use for several hours, very cool and convenient that you can flip the front part of the helmet at any time without removing the helmet itself.
April 23, 2020, Moscow
Advantages:
Very convenient to set up - there are no base stations for tracking, everything is done by built-in cameras and sensors (no need to make additional movements to fix the space of use). Great quality screens. It sits very comfortably on the head and easily leans back without removing it when you need to look somewhere
Disadvantages:
I would like the package to include a wireless adapter (let the price be 15-20 thousand rubles more, but not so as to buy it for 40 thousand rubles :()
Comment:
Before buying, I recommend making sure your com can handle this VR system.

Advantages:
Resolution, usability, fast and easy installation, built-in headphones.
Disadvantages:
I have not encountered any shortcomings yet.
Comment:
Took this helmet to replace the first generation Vive. What immediately catches your eye is the ease of connecting and setting up the play area. This whole process takes very little time. Once I marked the playing space, and the helmet remembered it. If you don't move the furniture, then you don't need to mark anything else. It is very convenient and you can play right away. I was very pleased with the increased resolution, the picture is not grainy, clear, pleasant. In general, I am very pleased with the new thing.
