Rift CV1 vs. VIVE pro

Dear RC4 fans,

after some weeks with my new HTC vive pro, I'd like to share my thoughts about with you

First of all, I'm really happy haveing motion compensation working now and being able to use the RC4 in VR.

What is better with the VIVE pro, than with the CV1?

Motion compensation is working fine - thats the best at all

Resolution ist better, but not that impressive as expected

What is worse

The weight is immense, and thats a problem when feeling the RC4 force while racing, it won't stay in place. So you have to tune the sidestraps with some foam, to stabelize the HMD. Make it more stable against force from sidewart.

The controllers are compared to the RIFT ones are like bricks. What a stupid design.

The rear side of the straps are really bulky, if you use a racing seat, you won't sit comfortable. It's like wearing a helmet.

What is similar?

Tracking is as good as with the RIFT, setting up the lighthouse sensors of course is more simple.

What would I choose, if Motion Compensation would work as same as good with the RIFT?

I would stick with the RIFT. But right now, the only choice for RC4 usage is the HTC VIVE. But I'm not sure if the price difference between VIVE and VIVE pro is worth the slight resolution improvement.

Cheers

Michael
