RED5 Vizor PRO

Product Information

The Valve Index certainly looks the part of a high-end headset, but that means it also requires a complex setup (and a powerful PC) to match. In fact, our least favorite thing about Valve's headset is the setup process, which requires several wires and a dual camera setup to work properly. Make sure you have enough desk and room space (not to mention a few free power outlets) to ensure a seamless experience. The process is worth it, however, as you'll be treated to impressive wide field-of-view and full Steam integration, making browsing your existing library in VR a cakewalk. You want more battery life: The Quest Pro's one significant flaw is its relatively low battery life, maxing out at a meager two to three hours on a full charge. The Meta Quest Pro, the company's latest and arguably greatest headset, is certainly one of the more expensive VR options currently on the market, but it's not like you won't get your money's worth. The headset's comfortable design and sleek controllers are easy to use from the get-go, and you don't need any external equipment to get set up.

It’s never been easier or more comfortable to enjoy a personal cinema and gaming experience in one device! The HP Reverb G2 is an excellent headset for anyone looking for something slightly cheaper than the Valve Index or HTC Vive Pro 2 and something easy to set up. Although it’s not as accurate as the somewhat pricier options, it’s a fantastic alternative that still maintains the visual enchantment of VR gaming. If anything, the HP Reverb G2 exceeds visual expectations and presents an entirely new experience while undercutting the cost of its peers. And the big difference with the Vizor VR Glasses is the ability to play augmented games, simply by removing the front panel of your headset, transforming your reality into an interactive gaming experience within the real world surroundings. Compatible with nearly all smartphones, this headset is designed to deliver an amazing 360° viewing experience combined with luxurious comfort and functionality. Immerse yourself in a virtual world by watching your favourite 3D movies, play interactive augmented or virtual reality games and experience awe inspiring 360-degree viewing.VR tech is only becoming more impressive, which is something the best VR headsets are sure to showcase. Especially with the release of the esteemed PSVR 2 earlier this year, and the imminent launch of Oculus Quest 3, more players than ever are keen to get hold of the hardware and some of the best VR games which typically retail for less than more traditional releases.

Every VR headset that we include in our best VR Headsets buying guide has been reviewed in the environment and on a machine that meets the recommended specifications of the manufacturer. VR headsets are essentially like strapping TVs up close to your face, so extended periods of time can cause a little discomfort. We recommend taking breaks and standing or sitting in a comfortable position. If you start to feel any discomfort or blurred vision, take some time away from the VR headset until you feel confident to return to it. How we test VR headsets We're not going to sugarcoat things, however; VR is a relatively expensive hobby, and individual headsets can cost as much as, if not more than, the best gaming consoles and PCs. We've endeavored, then, to pull together a range of products that stretch across every platform and budget scope, including alternatives for people who want to cut the cables and go entirely wireless.

Review Overview

For the first time ever, the virtual world has become available to us all, with virtual reality headsets enabling us to experience a world that we’ve only ever seen before in futuristic sci-fi. So if you fancy swimming in a coral reef, being chased by a T-Rex or riding a rollercoaster from the comfort of your home, then the Vizor Glasses Pro virtual reality headset can make it possible! Sony's new PSVR 2 is arguably the best wired VR headset, given it has a plethora of high-end specs, including a brilliant OLED display. But it sits behind the Quest 3 because it requires a PS5 to work and is limited to the PlayStation ecosystem.Plus the gap between the Quest 3 and PSVR 2 is much smaller than the gap between the Quest 2 and the PSVR 2 thanks to a new processor and display on the Quest 3. The full immersive action of the Vizor VR Glasses has to be experienced to be believed. If you’ve ever dreamt of skydiving off a mountain or visiting a Jurassic world, the VR headset allows you to engulf yourself in a totally different place in an instant. You can do anything from travelling on a roller coaster, to walking on the moon in minutes! With the help of the gyroscope in your phone, the virtual reality headset gives you a 360 degree view of your surroundings, wherever you choose to be, so you can visually explore your environment just as you would in real life. If you have a PS4 or PS4 Pro, then PlayStation VR is definitely one of the more affordable ways to play VR games with decent-quality graphics since you don’t need an expensive gaming PC. Plus, even with the less-than-stellar Move controllers and graphics that fall a bit short of high-end PC graphics, you still get a relatively high-end VR experience. Jurassic Virtual Reality (VR): That name surely gives it away, but if you like dinosaurs, then this will get you as close to the real thing as you’re ever likely to get. Get it from here.

We've been harsh on the Vive Pro 2 so far, but we can't ignore the strengths it boasts over other headsets in this list. The Vive Pro 2 is capable of outputting a '5K' resolution (that's an astronomical 2448 x 2448 pixels per eye), a 120-degree field of view and a 120Hz refresh rate. Yes, you will need an ultra-powerful PC to make the most of it, but the Vive Pro 2 is capable of providing some of the most accurate and immersive visuals of any headset on the market right now. The semi-futuristic-looking headset is surprisingly comfortable, with a superb range of some of the best VR games. This includes games like Hitman 3, Stride and Star Wars: Squadrons among others. Each device is tested extensively across a range of software available in the headsets' associated store. Many of our reviewers have experience using different ranges of virtual reality hardware, enabling them to make informed comparisons between products. No device in our buying list above has been included without first being tested and reviewed.Still, the PSVR 2 is excellent, especially for gaming. The headset is comfortable with just a relatively slim but sturdy cable that connects it to the PS5, the screen is excellent with impressive passthrough capabilities and 4K resolution. Plus, there's 3D audio support and easy buttons for adjustment. Driver’s Seat VR: Want to take a ride in one of Infiniti’s Q60 and QX30 concept cars? Well, now you can. Get it from here.

You don't have much space: Valve Index is quite complicated to set up, requiring several cables and cameras to function properly. The Meta Quest Pro, in essence, is a souped-up version of the Meta Quest 2. The improved controllers are a particular highlight here, featuring a sleek, comfortable design that feels more premium than similar motion-based gamepads. And comfort really is the key word here, as the Quest Pro is well-suited for longer gaming sessions thanks to a cushioned headband.

One thing to also bear in mind is that the PlayStation 5 also has support for PlayStation VR but it has some issues. It doesn't play as nicely with the Move controllers as its PS4 counterparts. Additionally, with the release of the PSVR 2, there won't be new games coming to the PS VR headset. But if you want to just play VR games for the first time and you already have a PS4, the PS VR headset could be a perfect entry point.
