i got this about 2 weeks ago and so far I am loving it. Nothing is wrong with the headset. very easy to set up. it has every thing you need in order to play vr. I can play for long periods of time (8hr+) without it getting too hot. The controllers have a long battery life perfect for long play sessions. Love playing beat saber with it. 10/10

So a bit of background, my only experience prior to getting this was the Gear VR, Oculus Go and PlayStation VR. I just got my gaming PC and grabbed this a few weeks after. I went with this for a few reasons. High resolution, availability (Valve Index is backordered for months), modularity. To start the resolution is really good, and for me is a huge step up from my previous VR experiences. Setting up the base stations and scaling the room was a pretty simple process. I had them stations mounted to the walls and they were immediately able to communicate with each other. The tracking coming from those base stations is excellent. Long story short, here are some of the pros and cons based on my experiences. I played Half Life Alyx, No Man's Sky Beyond, Beat Sabre and VR Chat Pros: -Super sharp display -Excellent tracking -Really good audio from inbuilt headphones -Easy setup -Tons of games and apps available on Steam -Flip-up visor Cons: -Pretty small "sweet spot" to get a clear vision -Takes some time to get a comfortable fit -Controllers aren't the greatest (though I do have the Valve Index controllers on backorder) All in all I'm extremely happy with my purchase. Yes the Valve Index may offer a better value, but this does benefit with a slightly higher resolution screen. This is a really good kit to get everything you need right out of the gate.

The Vive Elite Cosmos is not a terrible VR, it’s just not worth the current price tag. With controllers that first came out over 4 years ago, they work but can be frustrating. Their design makes quite a few games difficult to play without smashing the large sensor ring into each other. This also comes with version 1 of the tracking stations. I’d suggest buying stands for these otherwise you will be placing two large screws into your wall for each unit. Overall, you aren’t paying for anything innovative. You’d be far better off either paying less and going with the Oculus Quest with (or without) the link cable or simply paying an additional $100 for the Valve Index, which is widely considered the best VR kit available and bests this headset in literally every way.

I only give it 4 stars because the controllers are the same. The Index has the better controllers. People talk poorly about the comfort, but I think it fits perfect. A little bit heavy in the front, but nothing that bothers me much. Overall I am satisfied with this purchase, and would highly recommend it. The reason I choose the Vive is for quality. I've read about the Index not being the best quality, and having problems (breaking) after the first 6 months of use. For a thousand dollars I expect it to last (at the very least) until the next gen comes out.

Very easy to set up, headset is very comfortable. As for the controls and the interface, they work at real time. There is no perceivable delay between a movement in the real world, and motion in the game.
