We experienced difficulties with delivery. The shipping cost was higher than the cost of the headset itself. No
joystick or controller, thus limiting VR to visual features.

 Works with Windows Mixed Reality or with the Steam Platform

the game

! The high price
! With the 2-in-1 cable, the display-port and USB ports must be on the same side
of the computer, otherwise the cables are too short to be plugged on both
sides of the machine and the headset is unusable.
! Batteries are not included with the gamepads.
! The user manual lacks much information when first installing and configuring
WEAKNESSES the headset
! Earphones may only be adjusted one strap, so there is little flexibility, there are
only 2 positions: high or low
! Potential difficulty in using the joysticks in case of dyspraxia. There are fewer
applications compatible with HP than with Oculus
! Long configuration for first use. We used the Window portal RV and also Steam
for it to work, for the 2 configurations to be operational

 Inclusive headset with a wide viewing angle and rather comfortable when not
OPPORTUNITIES wearing glasses
 Ergonomic joystick even if it takes time to learn the different buttons of the 2
handles
