Would adding the Apple Vision Pro, and the higher end Varjo HMDs be possible? If another one is compared by the end of 2025, maybe even throw in the Pimax Crystal SUPER & 12K MicroOLED too? (AVP because simulators tend to use their own controllers for Flight/Driving/Sailing/Trains/etc. Also now apparently Steam VR is 'possible'?) The price range is at least a thousand dollars for most of these uber headsets anyways.

No, I can't agree. The market is not big enough for +£1000 headsets. This is why Varjo discontinued their "consumer" £2.5k headset. I would love to proved wrong but the facts are there ?

As a non-flight-sim-guy, I'm still a big fan of this channel. I like to keep abreast of the cutting edge tech even if I don't ever see myself willing to pay thousands of dollars. I think it's great that there is a community of enthusiasts who benefit from this tech. Nobody should be upset over the coverage of stuff they either can't afford or choose not to purchase. Flight simmers are pushing the envelope and we all benefit from the advances Somnium and Varjo make.

As a happy Aero customer for two years, (thanks to your research), I'm looking to upgrade in the near future! I only use DCS and MSFS and based on your review, I'm really leaning towards the XR-4. 😅 BTW, the scenic flight around Manhattan is such a blast IRL! LaGuardia tower usually clears you to cross Central Park, on your way from the East River to the Hudson. Not directly over the skyscrapers like you did the first time. 😳😂 Speaking of which, the turbulence you feel at 1500 AGL over the city, is something that I really hope they've modelled in MSFS 2024! Really enjoyed this review, thanks. Looking forward to your Crystal Super review as well, but my prior experience with Pimax (8kx) and their software, has made me less than enthusiastic about going back to that brand, lol.

Well another great comparison! I did finally receive my Primax Crystal Light and unfortunately my unit has been a real headache. First, the IPD will no longer adjust and 2nd my unit is not all that clear as others have described. Yes I wear glasses and did order and receive inserts but the focus is still somewhat blurry. I wrote to Primax and they addressed the lens by saying they would send a new pair but they made no comment regarding the IPD adjustment. We all know how long it takes to receive products and this evening being very frustrated I wrote Primax and requested a full refund: will see??? I would like to see reviews on the upcoming Super but the main issue I have with Primax is the time it takes to receive a response from a real person and not a bot. My conclusion is that finding a company that offers better support will most likely be my path and that eliminates Primax for me. Yes, this has been a journey as I waited many years to buy a headset just to turn around and send it back! Thanks for the video Steve, I will be looking at both headsets Somnium and Varjo and hoping by some miracle that Valve has some news??? Of these 2 comparisons you did, who offers the best support after sales. In all honesty I really did not want to spend this much money but I may not have a choice.

When considering the strap design and the comfort issues you mention, please let us know how you have the VR1's strap positioned. The XR4 clearly has a rigid strap (front to back, without a hinge), with the rearmost portion angled downward so the cushion rests against the underside of the skull. This design provides better support for the frontal weight. To achieve the same with the VR1 strap, you need to angle the hinge so the rear angled downward in a similar fashion. Is this not possible for you, or have you tried this?

I'd be eternally grateful if you could review the passthrough clarity. Forgive me if it's covered in your vid I can't watch it just yet. Specifically I'm keen to know if I can read a CAA chart, is it clear enough to read radio frequencies for example? For me I'm not interested in seeing the controls or my hands. But if I can read a real chart that is a humongous game changer for practicing vfr nav (dead reckoning using a plotter).

Hi mate, I own a varjo vr3, which is the xr3 less the pass through. The vr3/xr3 in everything outside of DCS and a few apps that support the focus displays is basically a heavier, less bright varjo aero. So everything that applies to the aero, applies to the xr3 (even more so regarding brightness, because the xr3/vr3 are less bright than aero due to the optical stack). If you look at Steve's earlier videos, he compared the crystal (which the crystal light is lighter than but otherwise very similar to visually) to the aero and while both were good headsets, overall Steve found the crystal to be the better headset. So my advice would be don't bother with an xr3/vr3 unless they come with a full unlocked permanent licence (they otherwise need a yearly licence) and don't expect anything more than aero visuals. Frankly, I'd say get a used aero instead, if you don't want a crystal. Having said that, if you want a headset for DCS, the Vr3/xr3 are still the sharpest headsets out there (71ppd) in the inner focus area in DCS - so if you can get one discounted, it could be worthwhile. But you do pay a price in weight, heavy cable and lower fov compared to crystal and aero.

It’s a shame that Varjo are seemingly trying to deliberately price themselves out of the home consumer market.

All other insert makers will only take your distance prescription and won't even tell you what adjustments they make for the headset, which will vary from 0.0 to +0.75 dioptres. This is very important if you are older with little 'accommodation'.

To me, even when Varjo beat them all in terms of quality, comfort and pice. They will not be my choice as a consumer. They blew it for me with the way they handled their customer base with the Aero. I will not support this kind of customer ‘care’.

The idea of 'future proofing' and buying for the future is not a great idea.... Remember varjo ' local dimming for better blacks with the aero..... Yes, it never actually came. My remit now is if it doesn't have something working when bought best not to expect it

I believe he was referring to the ppd value. Which is working now.

Nice headsets but, they are still missing that 'standalone' benefit of being able to access Meta Horizon OS, thereby precluding themselves from being even 'possible' to play Meta Horizon OS exclusive games and not being able to do wireless without an accessory package, though naturally it probably wouldn't be at 'max fidelity' and would have other caveats. But you wouldn't need to 'bring a PC' if traveling (like chilling in a hotel room or doing demos at a convention [self contained ecosystem.])

Simmers are not interested in stand alone VR. They simply want the best they can afford to go with the PC they use for the experience.

Nice video thanks for taking the time to do this. If you ignore price and Ignore use case (say dcs only) are you brave enough to give a composite score (1-10) for each headset that factors in all metrics except price and use case? Thanks!

Thanks Steve, I want to order the Somnium but I can’t checkout as it doesn’t ship to Australia 🇦🇺. Ive made several attempts to email the company via their web page but they don’t respond to my emails. Can you ask them if they can update their web page to include Australia for shipping.. Many thanks Damo
