Questions about HTC Vive Pro - Full Kit

As far as I know, the latest information is "this summer", unfortunately, more precise information on the date and price has not yet been provided (as of the end of July 2018). But the part will certainly be compatible!

Yes and yes 👍

I bought the product in 2019, at the time the HTC vive pro was all blue (it wasn't the Vive pro2 either, as that didn't exist at the time). However, I can't say which model Galaxus now offers. From the description I would say that the glasses from Galaxus are the HTC vive pro and the one in the link is already the HTC Vive pro2, so 2 different ones. hope this helps :-/

The Pro (and also Pro 2) have the Platik temple built right in, which is very easy to wear, with much better comfort than most of the others (the twist knob at the back is extremely handy). For spectacle wearers like me, there are cut-outs on the side for the earpieces so that glasses can also be worn without any problems. The HMD can also be moved further forward at the touch of a button to make room for larger glasses. Overall, the HMD concept is very well adapted to people who wear glasses.

It depends on what needs to be done. I have the HTC vive pro which is too expensive in my opinion. Since I need the glasses for CAD applications to assess realistic 1:1 models, these glasses are the only realistic ones for me. The lines in the "God rays" lenses are hardly noticeable when playing, but when you want to use the glasses as a monitor they are more than annoying. Here I think the Oculus is probably more comfortable. However, I know from colleagues that the Oculus distorts somewhat and does not give a 100% 1:1 representation of the 3D models, which of course is of no use to me when evaluating the 3D models. Therefore, the "lens mod" for the Vive is not an option for me to get rid of the annoying lines. (Either 1:1 or good representation over the whole screen). In my opinion, the HTC Vive Pro is the first choice for professional 3D evaluation, because here the evaluation of the models is always in the centre of the lens and therefore you don't see the God Rays) and for gaming the Oculus, because it would be cool if you could watch a film instead of the screen with the VR glasses, for example, and the God Rays are really annoying here. As I said, that's just my opinion.

With a little patience, yes. 2 Yes - but unfortunately not top class in terms of quality. I would rather recommend a ModMic. 3. I would not recommend AUX because of the cable that has to be connected to the PC (glasses have no connection). You can set up audio output normally via Windows. Bluetooth works fine.

Thanks for the info!

What kind of mounting kit? Do you mean the wallmount for the Lighhouses 2.0? There is a 1/4" thread in the bottom and back of the LH 2.0. In my case, they have a mount for the small tripod spigots. So any PlitzLampen tripod will fit. This means that any mount for tripods with a click or ball head will also fit.

Hello, I have a Vive Pro myself. That's why I don't advise you to buy a model that's too cheap, because I think the gaming experience can suffer quite a bit. I first played with my old GTX 980 graphics card, which is not bad either, but the performance was very poor in more complex games. With the new PC (RTX 2080Ti) it's now a great thing. I mean, the glasses cost enough, so the investment should be worth it. So I would look for a system with at least a GTX 1080 graphics card and later, when the prices drop, install a GTX 1080TI or higher, if you want it to be cheap. e.g. Joule Performance from Fr. 1,999 (https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/joule-performance-gaming-pc-respawn-1-intel-core-i7-8700-16gb-ssd-hdd-pc-9472424). If you haven't bought the glasses yet, I'd rather buy the HTC Vive. They run better on inexpensive systems. But that's up to you, of course. But I think it's better to buy a cheap pair of glasses instead of a cheap system with an expensive HTC Vive Pro, whose potential you can't even come close to exploiting. As I said, I have a Pro.

I don't know the best way. but I run a pro on a PC with GTX1080 TI , and one pro on an Acer Predator G9-593 laptop with GTX1070. runs fine. But the difference between the normal, and the Pro headset is much weaker than from the PC. In direct comparison, for example, in LAN Ping Pong (Virtual Sports), it plays a little more dynamically with the Pro on the PC. Graphically, there are also fewer grids/pixels. my opinion with my laptop Laptop with normal Vive and 1070GTX is enough. Lets play well. ( Was fully satisfied before the PC. ) My attached second Pro works well even if it can not fully exploit the potential. Even if I couldn't give you a real tip: If I had to buy a new one, I would look for a laptop with a 1080 card (e.g. Predator 17 X). off topic: Is really cool wireless. The Vive wireless adapter *only* works on a PC. Needs a PCI port. 2. you need the Pro Clip. (Wiring harness) for the Pro. this date has been postponed again !!! TP Cast also works Talellos on the laptop. This however, works again only with the "old" Vive).

No. (Not yet)
