Pros: Had this headset for about 2months now, its comfortable for playing several hours at a time, the audio is clear and convenient with off ear speakers, the image quality is best is class (for now), and the tracking ain't bad (this could use some help though with future upgrades).
Cons: 1) incomplete Instructions, something so simple yet completely missed the mark. Had to refer to the internet o how to change batteries for example. 2) compatability, from WMR support not being great with all games, to trying to find a USB port that is windows compatible (didn't even know that was a thing). 3) WMR (windows mixed reality), seems like a great concept, but in reality it's underdeveloped. Which more games being on Steam, WMR is a go between... can't understand why you can't boot directly from Steam? Sense WMR doesn't seem to be updated?... just seems like its bloatware running in the background, sense all my games and apps are on Steam.
Overall Review: Would recommend for noobs and enthusiasts. Its a great headset for the price. HP did a great job building the unit, just seems like windows didn't deliver on expectations for WMR... which makes using the unit more tedious than what it should be.
