      @Qi QI Theres a minimum requirements list for the hp reverb g2, i think it lists 2060 super for the native resolution, i dunno about the vive pro 2, i imagine its quite high. The tracking on g2 seems to be a hit and miss though.

    I had the HTC Vive 1 and the Valve Index. Now I have the reverb G2 since December, it is amazing, the clarity is perfect for games such as flightsim 2020. Sound quality is very good as well. Tracking is certainly better with the new HTC but you'll pay for the amazing Valve Index Base Stations. Best controllers are def the Valve Index Controllers.

    Both sets of controllers suck. Tracking is better one the HP, G2 has amazing audio,/comfort. Pair the index controller to either of these for great improvement. Less God rays on the G2. Neither performs nearly as good as an OLED in dark scenes. I'll be waiting for a next gen. Graphics cards hard a hard time rendering the resolution of either of these at full composition. I have the G2 with the Index controllers..

    Vive Pro 2 is a best to be sure but for less than half the price, the G2 is just worth it, especially if you're just gaming on it. Both of these headsets reach the point where they could replace your monitor. It's pretty cool that we've reached that point, especially for $599 in the case of the G2.

      @@baarg8672 No way! The way HMD's rest on your head still needs to be figured out. The halo config on the PSVR is the best I've experienced for comfort but even then it gets uncomfortable for me after no more than 2 hours. I usually take a break every 45 min on the G2 just because I wear glasses. The G2 gets pretty hot too, which is the same for all headsets really. So there are still some kinks to work out with design but the functional part is solved. The G2 has zero pixelization with incredibly crisp screens and it looks like every new headset coming will match or beat it. But I've setup multiple virtual screens and windows and actually worked in the thing for a limited time. Besides physical comfort, it's there.

    I think the days of outside in tracking headsets are numbered. I'm done with them, I don't care how much "better" their quality may be...over time, they're going to be THE preferred VR headset for everyone. I could NEVER get my base stations working...ever. I have 3 of them and it was just such a hassle. I switched to their Cosmos (fantastic!!) and now use the G2 exclusively. No more hassles, and the tracking is just fine....BUT you have to have enough light in the room. THAT is usually where people fail when they complain about lack of tracking with the G2.

    What you are not saying is that even with a 3090 the Vive Pro 2 does not hold 90 fps at full resolution on most games. I have to set the stemvr ss to 80% to have a smooth experience. This leads to a considerable drop in terms of visuals. I don't have the reverb g2, but what I've heard is a much more stable headset in terms of performances. If I could I would sell my Vive Pro 2.

      Just bought the Reverb G2 V2 and im not that impressed. The resolution is great and there are no god rays like on the index, but the fov is poor and the visual clarity drops drastically the second you stop looking right in the middle. The cable is also made of rubber and it get « stuck » on everything. Very annoying when playing Elite Dangerous seated and I try moving my head around. There is a constant force against me because of that damn cable. The index is way better in that regard and has a wider and taller field of view. It is blurrier in the index but I feel « there ». In the G2 I feel like I watch a clear picture without being there. Weird feeling.

    Do you find that the Reverb G2 doesn’t run as well, despite having lower res than the Vive Pro 2? I’ve used the G2 a bunch and it’s fine in something like Half Life Alyx, but anything like ArchVis scenes (Enscape or Unreal Engine) the performance has been really confusing, seems like there’s WMR SteamVR software issues. I’ve seen that the Pro 2 often performs better and more reliably. What have you noticed?

    Your are the first one, who says that the cross-pollination between WMR and Steam VR makes your life easier. In my opinion (and I think in the opinion of the most G2 users), WMR is absolutly useless and a peformance killer. One of the main reasons, I pre-ordered the Pro although I have the G2 ist to get rid of WMR

    • @stevetb7777
      @stevetb7777 3 года назад

      I agree bro, completely. WMR is a complete waste and it is just in the way. It is absolutely a performance killer indeed. G2 is probably great for the price... The tracking is quite awful compared to lighthouse. I did get it working with my Index controllers + lighthouse base stations using dongles... but boy.. what a hassle! And it doesn't work well all the time. I'm still having issues with the G2 and my X570 mobo (dropouts, crashes, blue screens). The end result? I barely use it. And I just built a new PC with the latest tech. Ughhhh. I wonder if VP2 will have the same issues. I can't wait for Index 2 one day... in the mean time I think I might just preorder VP2 and sell my G2. I'm quite sure if the G3 rolls around and has some superior feature again, I'm going to avoid it just to avoid WMR! I'm impressed that it seems reviewers are getting better performance out of the VP2 than the G2. Not surprised though.

    Judging by lots of already very mixed reviews, this sounds like it`s going to be as contentious as the G2 was/is. Maybe more so. What are your pc specs btw? Most of us can’t even run the G2 on its highest resolution settings at 90hz in most games, and because most VR games are so horribly optimized even 3090s can’t do it either. I don’t see that improving anytime soon for VR content developers either, so its going be several years of hardware like this being way overkill for our systems and most games poor optimization. I see this headset being the most worthwhile investment for those that already have the base stations etc. Those that have to pay for everything i just don’t see the money being worth it over the small upgrade over the G2,

    • @nobody2021

      I own both Reverb G2 and Vive Pro 2, and I also play DCS. Personally I am favoring the Reverb G2. Problems with the Vive Pro 2 that I have noticed. The sweet spot of pure clarity is much smaller than the G2. Which means the HMD in game is bit more blurry as well as text or other aircraft, unless you're looking directly at the target in the center of the headset. The other issue is that flying at night and looking at lights you will see a higher level of glair on the Vive Pro 2. The G2 doesn't have this problem.

    You can´t criticize the G2 controllers, because they are not supported in old games that were released before the G2 was released. You can criticize the developers of the games for not updating their games which they still wanna sell. Luckily, some VR users share their custom bindings on Steam, so that is not that big of a deal.
    I definitly recommand not buying the Pro 2 bundle with the old controllers (wands) which not even have thumbsticks. Buy the Valve index controllers instead on Steam

      G2 controllers were okay for me... now the tracking, that's another story. Definitely Index controllers all the way. If you are using Index controllers it's nearly impossible to downgrade from that.

    Hi PP, interesting video that has left me in somewhat of a quandary. I have an I9 9900K, 2080TI gaming PC bought specifically and entirely for iRacing. I have an 80:20 profile cockpit and think it is extremely unlikely that I will play any other games other than iRacing. I am thinking of buying another VR headset previously had a quest 2 (very unimpressed) . Im less bothered about tracking as obviously will be sat in a cockpit. For me calarity(especially in the distance for brake markers etc and visuals is my number one priority) My question is this, if you wouldn't mind giving me your honest opinion. Money no object and given my intended use which one of these headsets would you personally recommend?

    Which has less SDE/higher perceived clarity, the reason I ask is because even though the vive pro 2 has a higher resolution it is spread across a larger fov, so I'm wondering if when taking that into consideration if the clarity itself is actaully better then the g2.

      @midnightrocker7 3 года назад

      The G2 is garbage, the headset itself feels cheap, the strap on it is cheap and uncomfortable, the G2 has a small fov which I find annoying for games, tracking is terrible, display is blurry at times when you look in certain areas, controllers are awful, batteries in controllers doesn't last very long and you have to keep replacing the batteries, Steam vr games don't work right, I have the G2 and I regret ever buying the headset, right now it is just sitting aside in my closet as a closet ornament, forgot to mention the Windows Mixed Reality software is useless junk and never works right with anything either, I would say get any other vr headset besides the G2, my favorite vr headsets are the Index and Quest 2 which I currently use, I probably would prefer the Vive Pro 2 over the G2 if I were you though, anything over the G2 which I think is the biggest piece of junk for a vr headset that was ever made

      Not one of the rear USB ports including the USB 3.2 gen 2 ports (two type "A" and one "C") have any fuctionality with the Reverb. (FWIW It's an asus B550-E, and I have the latest bios.)
