Edition: Headset Only
I have had the cosmos for a few days and it seems like a higher resolution vive. I only use vr headsets for vr and I have only used the Vive so my overall experience with VR is limited. Tracking seems fine. The only problems with tracking I had is that one of my tracking stations was acting up, but I had that problem before the headset and its since been fixed. The resolution is a nice upgrade from the vive. There is a performance hit since it has to make up for two higher resolution screens but I can get decent frames on a 8700k cpu with a 2080 super. Overall, I like it, but I only use it in a limited way. ... show more

    • Zero Comfort - Flip Has no Benefit
Edition: Headset Only
After replacing my OG Vive with this, I couldn't even get it to work. I found out later I apparently needed extra software so I never got to even try it after returning it! Even still, had it worked, the flip feature is garbage. It only flips enough to see your feet. I had hopes I could test my game, flip it up, fix some stuff, flip it back down, etc. No beans. You cannot see forward when flipped up unless you lean way back, so what's the point? Further, for this crappy feature, you sacrifice comfort. You cannot adjust it in a way to get pressure on the bottom of the headset. You can tighten the top which loosens the bottom even more and allows you to see out the bottom. This "upgrade" is a complete dud. I'm very much happier with my OG Vive. Too bad they don't sell those anymore! ... show more

    • Great Product
Edition: Headset Only
Works very well with HTC vive, took a while to set up but now it works like a charm. Built in headphones and microphone makes things much more convenient. Only problem we are having is setting up our trackers along with it.

    • Not a bad headset, although I think mine's faulty.
Edition: Headset Only
Overall not a bad headset to own. The fit is a bit strange, as it puts most of the weight/pressure on the front and back of your head. For those not accustomed to this, be ready for a few headaches while your head adjusts to the new lenses and the way it fits. I found that the thin gaskets were too thin for my preference and will be switching to the thicker gaskets, which seemed to help the headset feel more comfortable. As for the headset itself the Mic leaves a little bit to desire, making a "pop" noise when you pronounce anything with a "p" in it. Found out it's partially because there is no buffer or windbreaker made in the unit, so it's all raw mic data and makes it easy to pick up on that. Although you can fix that with a simple wind breaker kit if you don't mind the aesthetics or with a digital buffer that can filter it out of you have enough technical know-how. As for the speakers.... The left one cuts out on a regular basis, I found that the 3.5mm headphone jack on the right speaker is a forwarding port for the left speaker, so all you have to do is reseat the cable and it starts working again. The lenses leave something to be desired though. The sweet spot on them is VERY small and can often cause problems with playing games such as beatsaber, then there's also the ring issues that they're prone to while playing. Unfortunately to fix this, you'll have to mod the headset, which voids the warranty from what I've heard. So if you want to have that waranty coverage, then you'll need to wait to do that. However, the reason why I suspect mine is faulty, is because I keep getting USB Error 009 at least 2 or 3 times per day. I've reinstalled drivers multiple times, provided system specs for my PC to HTC, contacted them multiple times and even dealt with an overheating issue with the headset. Unfortunately, despite how nice the technicians they employ are, the problems were never permanently resolved. The troubleshooting always seems to boil down to them blaming corrupt drivers, which is the first thing they usually tackle. Then I suspected that maybe there's too many USB devices on the PC and attempted reducing this. This didn't resolve the problem either as I still get USB Error 009. Did a fresh reinstall of windows, no dice. Even now I'm in the process of upgrading my to a new CPU, mobo, and ram kit to rule out any potential hardware issue on my side. On top of that the headset is prone to locking up when it overheats. Not too much of a problem when it's winter, but once summer rolls around, I'll be lucky to use it for an hour and a half before it locks up and has to cool down. It sounds like the cooling fan inside of the unit that should be pushing air out isn't activating when it's supposed to, resulting in the overheat. HTC support clearly informed me that this headset isn't designed for more than 2 hours of use at a time, which I have a hard time buying considering that other Cosmos Elite owners I know can play games for several hours with no issues. Overall, I'm docking a two stars overall for the following reasons: Plastic lenses that make games hard to see when you're moving around quickly, hardware related problems with the unit, and feeling a lack of support from the HTC. ... show more

    • Edit, The item works perfectly but the included item is by HTC, NOT AMAZON
Edition: Headset Only
UPDATE (6/3/2020)... After talking to an amazon Rep over the chat because phone calls aren't being answered, The code for Half Life Alyx is NOT a Digital code received from AMAZON, but from HTC themselves. Amazon needs to clarify in order to get the game, you have to to to HTCs website and redeem the Free VivePort offer included which will unlock the game to be downloaded in Steam. That was the confusion and why I rated this 3 starts earlier. Again the items is flawless and I left a review on it below. Changing to 4 stars instead of 3, But I would of gave this 5 stars because of the hassle I had to deal with the first time. Hope this helps anyone in the future. Old Review.... Bad enough because of this pandemic, you cannot contact amazon Customer Service via phone so I wen to their web chat to explain that I did not get a download code for the game said to be included and being bounced around by 10 different people having to explain the issue over and over again, I said forget it, its not worth the headache... One had amazon themselves call me only to hang up on me during the process then when I tried calling them back, I cannot get through once again because of the COVID-19 Pandemic... so yeah if you are buying this and expecting to get the Half Life: Alyx Download mentioned in the description, Good luck... Now for the headset itself. The item is fine, I gave this 3 stars because going through the madness of trying to get what was promised in a pkacaged and being bounced around and having to explain the problem over 10 times... Not worth it, I ended up buying the game from Steam out of my pocket... Anyway the Item came in perfect condition, I already had the wireless adapter so I got the wireless add on with it, the ability to flip the headset up to see whats in front of you or having to make some adjustments before going back into VR is a plus! Visuals are better but it still uses the fresnel lenses, Sweet spot is smaller than the original vive but I got the new lens mod coming for that to eliminate this. I recommend anyone who uses a Vive headset to get the lens mod, its so much better!!!! Tracking uses the Original Vive wands and base station and IMO that tracking is superior. The headphones attaches sounds good but i normally don't use them, I have a surround sound system for that. But overall the headset is good. if it wasnt for not getting the game that was promised with this bundle and the headache I went through with amazons customer support, I would of gave this review 5 stars... ... show more
