Presentation: To be fair the ‘VRHero 5K ’ certainly gives off a very premium vibe with its clean, almost Apple-inspired white outer box even if the headset itself looks as if it fell out of the 80’s. Once inside the main box case you are looking at high-quality packaging foam and several boxes with all your paperwork in and leads. This is a headset that is treated with respect and the price tag certainly demands it.

Review: As with VRgineers another headset the XTAL 8K this enterprise and private sector only headset was designed to offer the best VR technology has to offer all in one headset. It was super heavy to wear, but in terms of clarity of experience, it was 2nd to none. Sure, this isn’t really a headset that I could recommend for home use, but for those getting into VR training, it might be the best option.
