Overview
A gyroscope, accelerometer and proximity sensor inside the headset track head movement, while two Touch controllers carry hand motion into virtual worlds. Setup runs through a smartphone app, and a silicone cover and glasses spacer come in the box.
Standalone operation is what sets it apart, since no PC, console or cables are needed to play. The battery lasts only a few hours per charge, and the controllers need separate batteries.
Who it's for
Players new to VR who want a self-contained headset with a wide library and wireless play. Shoppers who wish to avoid account sign-ins, or who play marathon sessions, may find the requirements limiting.

Performance notes
On-board sensors track the headset and controllers, so movement in the room is reflected in the game. The high refresh rate of the display smooths motion, and the field of view sets how much of the scene is visible. Battery life limits play time per charge, and charging runs through the USB Type C cable.
