HP Reverb G2 Reviewed at Engadget

As far as PC is concerned, the HP Reverb G2 is still one of the best Windows Mixed Reality headset you can get … but it will cost you $600.

Taken from Engadget … as I began testing the Reverb G2 ($600), HP’s latest Windows Mixed Reality (WMR) headset, I couldn’t help but think to myself, “Who wants this?”

The answer, it turns out, is a bit complicated. The Reverb G2 offers higher-quality VR than the Quest 2 and $399 Rift S, but it’s significantly more expensive than either headset. Still, it could be compelling for gear heads who can’t quite justify the Index’s high cost. In fact, Valve helped HP design the Reverb G2, which allowed HP to bring over some of the Index’s most compelling features for almost half the price.

Pros:

  • Sharp high-res screens
  • Excellent near-field speakers
  • Ergonomic design 

Cons

  • Controllers still need work
  • Cable management is messy
  • Relatively high price

Summary

The Reverb G2 is the best Windows Mixed Reality headset yet, with sharp displays and impressive tracking. But it’s held back by average controllers and a relatively high price.
