HTC Offers Limited-Time Discount on Vive Pro 2, Includes Headset and All-in Bundle

Whoa. Okay, first off—HTC’s been kicking around the Vive Pro 2 since 2021, right? Yeah, it’s their top VR headset, holding the fort even now. And guess what? They’ve slashed prices for a bit. Lucky timing, I’d say.

So this big Summer of Gaming Sale is on until, hmm, June 30th. If you’re sniffing around for a VR headset that’s not fresh off the line but still packs a punch, check this. They’ve got deals on both a full kit and just the headset. Gotta choose wisely—or impulsively, your call.

Alright, so the full kit is down to $799.99 from, what, $1,199? Comes with the headset, plus SteamVR 2.0 Base Station and those Vive wand controllers. The headset alone? A cool $499.99, down from $699. But it’s, uh, just the headset. Kinda obvious, I guess.

Oh, and here’s the cherry on top: two months of Viveport Infinity—download and play over 1,000 VR games. A gaming buffet? Don’t mind if I do.

Let’s nerd out on specs for a sec:

– Resolution: 2,448 x 2,448 per eye. Fancy numbers, but it basically means sharp visuals. I think?
– Refresh rates are 90Hz and 120Hz.
– Uses these dual-element fresnel lenses.
– 120 degrees horizontal view. Wraps around your eyeballs—almost!
– Adjustable stuff: IPD and eye-relief. Gotta fit snug.
– Hook it up with USB 3.0 and DisplayPort 1.2.
– Cable’s 5 meters. Don’t trip!
– Tracks with SteamVR 1.0 or 2.0.
– Comes with wand controllers, rechargeable. Battery life mystery though.
– On-ear headphones and dual mics. And yes, pass-through cameras.

Not all rainbows here—it’s got thicker lenses and, let’s be real, a bulkier vibe. Compared to something snazzy like Bigscreen Beyond 2, this one’s, well, a bit beefy? But hey, $200 cheaper is pocket change for some; mix in base stations, controllers, and all that jazz for $800? Not a bad bargain if you’ve got the PC power to run it. Better check your setup!

Oh, oh! And don’t miss HTC’s new pricing play on the Vive Focus Vision. Standalone VR with PC streaming tricks, all wireless or with a cable. Very 2024 tech! Grab one with some extra games in the mix—fancy titles, all until June ends.

Funny tidbit—the Focus Vision’s price bumped up thanks to US-China tariffs. So, at the start, it was $1,000. Now a smidge higher to make up for those pesky tariffs. Economics lesson, anyone?

Okay, lemme quickly hit on Europe and UK offers before this gets too long:

– Vive Pro 2 Full Kit: €839/£699
– Vive Pro 2 Headset: €469/£449
– Vive XR Elite: €829/£699
– With trackers or without, there’s a bunch of bundles.

Too many numbers spinning in my head now, but there you go. Scooping one up or nah, this sale means business. Just, you know, keep track of those cables… they sneak up on you.
