Review: Updated review! This is THE best VR system. Its HTC wife. Out of the world - For those in India who are unable to decide whether to go for HTC Vive, though thousands are already enjoying abroad, here's my authentic review after having owned Playstation VR for a month and then buying HTC vive in India, 2 months ago. The packing by cloudtail was good. Delivery was very fast. Local desertcart.in courier boy delayed by 1 day. Hardware quality is premium. The headset is a bit front heavy compared to PSVR but as I bought an HTC vive deluxe audio strap it balanced the headset perfectly and made grip on head more firm. The glasses are not touching spects even with minimum eyerelief setting. Setup of Base stations was easy if one sees videos and read manuals thoroughly beforehand. Do spend on 7 feet studio light stands and ball mount pair for base stations available on desertcart.in for rs 2.4k. This keeps setup very portable. ...can take to any room in a jiffy. Base stations are heart of tracking in vive. Use ceiling cable management sys to prevent cord disturbing your experience, and screen guards for headset lenses. Downloading Vive and steam software was manageable though I had a tough time repeatedly trying logging in to these sites by HTC account......some website glitch. Free games quickly downloaded and were working. Rooms scale VR setup was fun. Can repeat as often as one wants esp if base stations' position is changed. Played the Blue, Everest VR, Richie's plank exp, Lab, Giza Pyramid VR, roller coaster. Bought MSI GT73VR 7RF titan pro with GTX 1080 for this HTC wife! This itself is a beast...the best gaming laptop you can have! It scores 11.5 on Steam VR test! AND the VR EXPERIENCES. ......way ahead of playstation VR. State of the art tracking of your head and controllers. Even <1 cm is tracked. Very smooth graphics...no lags, judder, image breaks. So smooth is tracking and so low is image shift latency that THERE IS NO MOTION SICKNESS or nausea. No headaches after an hour. I and wife did have nausea and headache with playstation VR. The level of immersion will take you to another world. You won't come out, even with poorly made games. You can walk around in Room scale....subtle chaperone grid warns you, unlike PSVR where image vanishes with little turning movement. No significant blurring in periphery if interpupillary distance is adjusted (61mm for me). Forget about screen door effect. No humming of base stations heard. Ensure one is b and one is c. Bluetooth can control them. I have not tried connecting smartphone to receive my messages etc.during play. Facility is available. Yet to try front camera for Augmented VR experience. Controllers are a technological marvel and battery life is good. Please don't criticise such a wonderful premium VR system for its price. It's worth much more. And is incomparable with cheaper things. Experience it somewhere before judging or commenting. UPDATED feedback on HTC vive India service SUPPORT once I encounterd problems.... After few days of wonderful play the Steam VR home page started freezing and games stopped loading. After 2 weeks of struggle, including reloading the Steam and viveport softwares, I solved this instantly by uninstalling Kaspersky. Strong antivirus prevents game exe files from opening and considers their copyprotect files as a malware. Later we smoothly played Ghost town mine ride (excellent), discovering space, temple of Apsara, Grand canyon VR, Realities, Spiderman etc.. During this struggle HTC vive tech support team assisted a lot, were very concerned and were constantly in touch. However, the solutions viz. Deleting temp files, cache, etc. did not work out. Both Steam support and HTC vive India extended suggestions based on an easily generated self diagnosis report. They are yet to tell which antivirus to install, though my Windows defender is doing a good job presently. Not using the gaming laptop for other jobs. Small day to day glitches in the HTC vive can be solved by restarting the system. Steam and Viveport have very affordable games and vast VR game store. Viveport monthly subscription is a good idea. Review: One of the best VR headset selling in India - HTC Vive is the best VR. But then VR games are in general not that great. Currently, they are not matured enough. Vive cost is huge. Also to drive this you will need a powerful PC. If you still want to experience VR then go ahead and buy this. thought if given a chance I would wait for a few generations. Having said that the price should have been 30 K then it might have made sense to buy this. ## Features - Gesture Tracking ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B06ZY6LJ2F | | Batteries | 4 Lithium Ion batteries required.

Currently, they are not matured enough. Vive cost is huge. Also to drive this you will need a powerful PC. If you still want to experience VR then go ahead and buy this. thought if given a chance I would wait for a few generations. Having said that the price should have been 30 K then it might have made sense to buy this. ### ⭐ Product Failure - One of the devices never connects with the hardware *by G***M on 18 August 2018* Purchase the HTC Vive 2 weeks back (Rs. 69000) Poor service support. Trying to resolve the issue for the past 2 weeks since it was delivered. Only based on the recommendation provided in the HTC site I purchased DELL Alienware laptop (Rs. 2.7 lakhs). Now the HTC guys blames it on the laptop for the malfunction and can't provide a proper solution.. Worst experience ever. ## Frequently Bought Together - HTC Android Vive - Virtual Reality System - Rebuff Reality TrackBelt + 2 TrackStraps Full Body Tracking VR Bundle for Vive Trackers - HTC Steam VR Base Station 2.0 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/75810948-htc-android-vive-virtual-reality-system](https://www.desertcart.at/products/75810948-htc-android-vive-virtual-reality-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
