![]() ![]() The Vive XR Elite, in my week of use, just seemed too fiddly and sometimes glitchy to be something I'd get used to. Scott Stein/CNET Conclusion: A form that grew on me, but too many random quirks I used HTC's own adapter to fit the hardware over my glasses, to see how that would feel.Īll the gear that the Vive XR Elite has could mean a big travel bag of stuff. ![]() I wore it over my own glasses, and didn't put in contact lenses and use the prescription-adjusting lenses included. The XR Elite also works as a connected PC VR headset, but for the purposes of my time with the device I focused more on what it can do on its own. I used the controllers, but also the onboard hand tracking. I tested the Vive XR Elite over the course of a week, using the device with a number of apps and games in standalone mode, both in VR and in mixed reality modes using the passthrough cameras. It's a sign of the evolutionary steps that are going to come for all VR/AR hardware. HTC's aggressive next step in VR hardware feels more like glasses than Meta's Quest Pro, for sure. But, if you want to strip it down to a smaller size, and run from a separate battery pack or a laptop, you can do that. The XR Elite is a kit, and it's pretty similar to the Meta Quest Pro. And, optionally, an adapter so that these small goggles actually fit over your glasses, if you wear glasses. It's not just the foldable goggles, you see. ![]() Watch this: Vive XR Elite: Is This the Start of VR Glasses? ![]()
