Pros & Cons
Pros
In pro, you have more pixels per inch (ppi) and that gives the sharper resolution.
The built in headset is very comfortable. The mic quality is also amazing and i'm able to be heard wven at a whisper. The vive has straps that as another reviewer mentioned, take some experimenting to get the headset to hang right on your head.
The vive pro is the next big step to 2nd gen vr, especially with wireless tech and better controllers coming soon. I still like the oculus controllers better than vive and oculus medium is the best sculpting app. Really, the vive pro wireless is thebe... Read More
The first time spawning in the mustang already in the air, i can only say, you need to see and feel it to believe it. It provides the 6 degrees of freedom just like these vr systems, but of course in 2 dimensions only. All in all a very solid vr syste... Read More
A little confusing at first. Responsive and polite. Good english, no form letters. It is weird, but also kinda makes sense and is a favorable development.
Cons
The vive pro by itself (hmd only package) is $800. The vive eye system is currently not capable of foveated rendering as advertised! There are demos from their partner tobii's website that demonstrate eye tracking, which works well, but there does not... Read More
I doubt htc will honor my warranty! It's absolutely ridiculous that something that costs over $1000 is this cheap quality.

Highlights
Quality
Excellent headset and definitely a top tier device

Price
So definitely keep that in mind when youre trying to justify the cost
00 in vive gear and they were great to work with and the vr experience is fantastic
As you all know it is expensive
So when i bought this it was on sale from amazon
Shipping
Arrived on time and the system is state of the art
It was a bit of a hassle for me to order this as the delivery was all over the place but it got here
However we received it still in reasonable timing and we have no regrets
Packaging/appearance
Clearly packaged at the factory and it is exactly what i expected
Competitiveness
The vive pro is far superior to the quest 2 in my opinion
This is one best vr headset i ever had evened its a lot better than the original htc vive not going to lie but also i want to m... Read More
Overall still is amazing and recommend for vr first time users andor anyone switching over from other vr brands
Meaning the quality is so much better in the htc vive than the oculus or ps vr

Headphones have ok quality but sometimes may need to clean the contacts unless you want to adjust the headphone just right all the time for it to work and if you are unlucky you may encounter a bug with audio causing a reallly loud sounding helicopter of static
