    HTC VIVE Virtual Reality System

    • Excellent system - deserves high praises.
    • giving 4 stars because the bundle I purchased was no longer available, the system itself is working fine, the fallout 4 game was no longer included in the bundle as had been advertised when I bought the product
    • Both are fantastic systems, but because I have the space to experience some of the larger walk-around games available, I find myself playing with the Vive most often.
    • I would totally recommend this system
    • This is probably the most fun i've ever had to date, It's an amazing system, and it truly feels like you're there, and it's extremely immersive
    • System works perfectly but HTC Vive online downloads are kind of glitchy.
    • The entire system plays kind of like a Steam Early Access game
    • Awesome system if you can get it running
    • Excellent build qualitySoftware is easy to use and calibrateThe whole system is easy to maintainImmersive games are immersive
    • if you have a good system, some cash to burn, and a large enough room to enjoy room scale, go for it.
    • My young son and I accomplished this task in less than an hour, without a single hang upI of course bought an excellent VR-ready gaming computer to go with the headset, so in all I dropped about 2500 dollars on this setup, but for my money, I have a 15X15' gaming area, the BEST VR system available to man, and the ability to play any game for hours with no signs of motion sickness.
    • No words will ever explain how amazing this system is
    • Great system.
    • The HTC Vive is one of the three "Major" VR systems available right now

    • I love this system
    • The system is incredibly cool when it works
    • The system is incredibly cool when it works
    • the Vive is hands down the better system
    • System is great... except: One of the two base stations stopped working right after the basic warranty ended
    • It's a wonderful system, but it's not really ready unless your an enthusiast or a developer
    • Awesome system!
    • This system is kind of like a 5th generation Wii
    • Awesome system - as long as it works
    • DONOT buy this , go with Occulus Rift or wait until Dec 2017 word has it there is going to be a new VR system available from some other company
    • Right now there are games that both systems have games supported that are available at Steam.
    • The system itself is awesome, there are some legitimate fun games out there for it and a lot of awe inspiring technical demos
    • System is excellent but being physically connected is very slightly annoying.
    • As of mid-March 2017, HTC Vive is still the most powerful available virtual reality system.
    • Love the system, but I wish it was a bit lighter and didn't have to be so firm against your face (causes lines/discomfort after only a short use)
    • It's worth the investment and the system is thought out very well.
    • It's a wonderful system, but it's not really ready unless your an enthusiast or a developer
    • Once over that hurdle, the system worked flawlessly.
    • Obviously a very cool system and when it's working, it's awesome.
    • I absolutely love this system.
    • Great system, I do not like the hand controllers though, I am still waiting for the Knuckles to come
    • The system is great, but after two weeks, one of my controllers would not stay charged for more than 30 minutes
    • The entire system is awesome, completely worth it.
    • I love this system
    • Still, for the VR aspect, the system as a whole is well worth it to me and mindblowing
    • This has been the best "gaming system" I have ever bought.
    • :(I am updating this a year later, system still is unstable.
    • And thanks to its truly impressive tracking system, your head and hands lock on so smoothly that even the most sensitive stomachs will have no issues.
    • Or anytime they push an update,Now, Since I'm just out of warranty, I'm going to have to buy another one at $134 or else the system which cost $799 1 year ago will be useless
    • This system is incredible
    • This is probably a resolvable driver issue, but it continues to prove my point that this technology is based on a lot of cobbled together parts that are not designed to be a cohesive system.
    • You will absolutely love the HTC Vive system
    • nice system easy to set up and use.
    • Be sure to super sample if your system is capable
    • It's a clunky system but HTC is bringing out something new

    • We're close, and this is a decent system, but it has some major issues
    • It's really a great system!
    • This system does not make me nauseus like the other systems do.
    • The absolute best virtual reality system on the market, and so beautifully immersive and detailed for the comfort of the use
    • Frankly, given it's complexity, the system works great
    • I tried the other systems and this blows the others awat.
    • Very good system
    • This system is great and DOES NOT cost as much as it is listed for by the third party sellers
    • This system is amazing, my family spends hours playing
    • Other systems just seem a bit more finicky as they require cameras instead of light boxes and require some precise positioning to get the best effect
    • First and most obvious caveat is that you need a very good system (particularly the GPU) to power the Vive
    • This system is really cool
    • But really, I spent about 800 USD on this fancy VR system (it's more expensive outside the U.S) and then I have to buy extras
    • Great system unhappy with amazon and the false advertisement of getting fallout 4 for free with purchase
    • Best VR system out right now no doubt
    • I got a few games when i bought the system, like skyrim and the other must have games
    • You can install Steam's free test to see if your system is fast enough BEFORE you make any purchases
    • Setup and troubleshooting are a bit rough but for PC gamers, which have systems powerful enough to run it, it is not too hard and well worth the tinkering needed to get it running
    • Make sure your system is ready before you drop the money.
    • Superb system
    • Games are fun, the system works great and after I starting using the correct USB ports (2.0 not 3.0) most of my problems cleared up
    • Very nice system.
    • The only other system that comes close is the Oculus Rift.
    • The system is great but at this price, they could have included additional foam padding (not just one) as after you play, foam is already soaking wet
    • Shipping came very fast, system is amazing
    • and it gives my system a good
    • Hardware:+Love the system+Excellent Tracking+Very ergonomic and
    • This system is awesome
    • System is great!
    • i love this system, it is super cool, and a lot of fun to play with
    • While this is the most expensive VR system on the market today, after using the Vive for a month I am fully convinced that I chose correctly
    • Great system unhappy with amazon and the false advertisement of getting fallout 4 for free with purchase
    • So don't let the stars fool you, this is an awesome system, i'm just posting it as a 1 star review to bring awareness to an issue i encountered so hopefully no one else has to go through it
    • I am enjoying this system with one small problem.
    • I highly recommend this system!!
    • The controllers and tracking system when put together correctly work great however whats keeping it from being perfect is the visibility of the rings on the glass and the blurr that comes with it
    • The tracking is quick and surprisingly accurate, the headset is relatively light and comfortable, and the system is very easy to set up.
    • It's still the best system available though.
