The Best VR Headsets

You could spend countless hours reading every review and spec sheet on VR Headsets only to end up with more questions than answers. I would like to help expedite the process of choosing a headset that is right for you. Simply put, quality vs money for the best four that are currently on the market.

Pick up and Go VR Headset

First, the most affordable and easiest virtual reality headset to start off with is the Oculus Go. No computer system or phone needed, the headset just needs a descent wifi connection and your off. If you want to have serious games that require computing power, we recommend one of the virtual reality headsets below, but purely to experience what VR is all about, this is the new best Budget headset.

Better VR Headset for games

Playstation VR. Its ease of use and setup make it accessible to even the greenest of users. The Playstation 4 Pro is what I recommend to run it because it handles graphics smoother than the original Playstion 4, but more on that on our systems page.

Even better, there is a good chance you have a Playstation 4 already in your house, which means all you need is the headset to start off.  It can be found here.

Best controllers for a VR Headset

The next option for the best VR Headsets comes with a slightly higher price tag and overall performance will depend on your computer system. My pick is the Oculus Rift. The touch controllers are by far the best controllers out on any system right now and you can also use an Xbox controller if you are more comfortable with it.

Also, the headset itself is comfortable and light. It comes with audio attached to the headset that works well and delivers crisp spatial audio. As far as price, it's better and cheaper than the original HTC Vive. The Oculus headset can be found here.

Best VR Headset on the market

Last, but certainly not least, is my top pick for a high performance virtual reality headsets, the HTC Vive Pro. Meant for business as well as high end users, it is currently the best on the market. Boasting a higher resolution, upgraded audio, and a superior tracking system, virtual reality has never been so immersive.

Paired with a high end system, it will cost you more than the others. But if you have the money to spend and you want the best experience, this is the best VR Headset. The full headset package can be found here.
