Presentation: Apart from a few headsets sent out to developers the headset was never official releases, only some were sent out to the bigger backers of their Kickstarter program and they were always just the headset in a brown, unbranded box.

Description: When you have one of the world’s leading VR experts say this about the totem virtual reality headset “the clarity was impressive, rivalling some of the best experiences I’ve had with a rift or Morpheus. ” you know you are dealing with a very serious VR system. Many experts believe that this system could be a real rival to the oculus rift as it is such a high-quality headset
But can this premium VR headset really be that good? The Vrvana Totem does have the financial backing as well as the stats, but up against the development might of Oculus and Sony, it might fall along the wayside which is a real shame. So let’s hope this high-end gamer rig gets the funding and backing it needs.

Review: While some will compare this headset to the Oculus Rift DK2 the fact that it had 2 cameras for internal tracking meant it was quite ahead of its time! Sadly most people never got their headsets and the company sold out to various other companies for parts and software. But…there are still some headsets out there and with time they could be real collector’s items. It’s just a shame they couldn’t get it to take off in time.
