Based on 2 reviews
After spending some time testing and comparing two of the most popular virtual reality headsets available, HTC VIVE Pro and Varjo VR-3, I have come to a conclusion on which headset is better for different types of users.
Starting with the HTC VIVE Pro, this headset offers a field of view at 110°, which provides an immersive experience for users. The resolution that it supports is 1440 × 1600 px, providing great visuals on the virtual environment. It also has room scale technology and 360 tracking capabilities which enables smooth movement in the virtual world. Another pro is that it has a minimum CPU requirement of Intel Core i5-4590 and graphics card requirement of Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 making it easier to run on mid-range PCs compared to Varjo VR-3. However one con to consider when using HTC VIVE Pro is that it only supports Windows and Mac OS systems while its competitor supports more operating systems such as Linux or Steam OS platforms. The refresh rate can go up to 90 Hz which allows smooth motion inside the virtual world.
Moving onto Varjo VR-3, this headset has all same features as HTC VIVE Pro but what sets them apart is resolution as well as hardware requirements. Varjo’s resolution goes up to 2880 x 2720 px providing far better visuals than any other PC based headsets available in market today along with 115° field of view creating ultra immersive environment for users. This resolution does come at cost though; it requires extremely powerful hardware components such as Intel Core i9 processor and NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti Graphics card along with Windows Operating System making it difficult for some gamers who don’t have latest or premium grade hardware specs in their gaming setup but also enabling them unprecedented visual experiences in virtual reality like never before seen before even with HTC Vive Pro's top notch specifications . It also supports refresh rate up to 90 Hz enabling smooth movements without stuttering or frame drops ensuring realistic experience inside the game or application being used in VR mode.
Both headsets offer fantastic performance when they are setup correctly but between these two there are few points separating them from each other; those being Resolution & Field Of View (FoV), Refresh Rate & Minimum Requirements For Hardware Specifications(CPU/GPU). Ultimately if someone were looking for ultimate high end experience then my suggestion would be going with Varjo VR-3 since its unbeatable foV coupled with highest possible resolutions makes every penny spent worthwhile whereas if someone was looking something budget friendly yet still want good quality graphics then they should go ahead with HTC VIVE Pro due to its mid range specs requirement allowing them enjoy latest games without having break bank too much .
Overall both headsets are excellent pieces technology offering great experiences whether playing games or watching movies but ultimately decision comes down towards user’s choice depending upon his/her budget constraints along specifications available within given price range . In my personal opinion ,I preferred using Varjo VR-3 due its superior visuals combined with more immersive FoV allowing me feel presence inside digital worlds created by developers making me forget real world entirely just like how I remembered when first starting out exploring Virtual Reality concept years ago .
