Tech journalist defends Vive Pro VR headset six years after launch, citing OLED display and wireless features
A tech journalist continues to use the Vive Pro VR headset, citing its unique OLED display and wireless capabilities as key advantages over newer models. Many modern headsets have switched to LCD, which lacks the same pixel control. The journalist values the Vive Pro's upgradeability and superior tracking with Lighthouse sensors, which enhance immersion. Despite the availability of newer, lighter headsets, the Vive Pro meets their specific needs for performance and comfort. Concerns about data privacy with companies like Meta also influence the decision to stick with the Vive Pro. The journalist plans to keep using the headset until a suitable upgrade becomes available that meets all their criteria.
