Which VR Headset Should I get?

At Con­struct Ar­cade we test with many dif­fer­ent VR head­sets. The best VR head­set is very de­pend­ent on your needs and budget as well as the phone or PC you own, though. Find out which one you should get down be­low:

Oculus Rift (Amazon)

This is a desktop head­set, which is re­com­men­ded if you want a high-end VR ex­per­i­ence and already have a good PC. Down­load and run the Oculus Com­pat­ib­il­ity Tool to find out wheth­er your com­puter suf­fices.

Qual­ity: High-End
Price: $ 349

HTC Vive (Amazon)

This is a desktop head­set, which is re­com­men­ded if you want a high-end VR ex­per­i­ence and already have a good PC. Down­load and run the Vive Com­pat­ib­il­ity Check to find out wheth­er your com­puter can meet the de­mands of this head­set.

Qual­ity: High-End
Price: $ 430.50

Oculus Quest (Amazon)

From in­put and VR-qual­ity, this head­set is very com­par­able to the Oculus Rift, though per­form­ance wise, the hard­ware in­side will not hold up with a desktop PC and prob­ably not with a really high- end smart­phone.

This is a stan­dalone head­set. If you don’t have a VR ready phone or com­puter, this will get you the VR ex­per­i­ence with the best qual­ity to price ra­tio.

Qual­ity: Mid- to High-End
Price: $ 399

Oculus GO (Amazon)

This is a stan­dalone head­set. If you don’t have a VR ready phone or com­puter, this will get you the VR ex­per­i­ence with the best qual­ity to price ra­tio. The Gear­VR is pretty sim­il­ar, if you already own a high-end Sam­sung Phone, make sure to check that out.

Qual­ity: Mid-Range
Price: $ 199

Sam­sung Gear VR (Amazon)

This is a mo­bile head­set. It re­quires a Sam­sung Galaxy S6 or bet­ter. If you already own such a smart­phone, this will get you a very cheap but great VR device. We re­com­mend get­ting the con­trol­ler, though, as it al­lows for way more in­ter­ac­tion in VR. If you do not own the phone, we re­com­mend the Oculus GO in­stead.

Qual­ity: Mid-Range
Price: $ 90 (Cur­rently dis­coun­ted from $ 129.99)

Google Day­dream View (Amazon)

This is a mo­bile head­set. It re­quires a day­dream ready phone, of which you can find a list here.

If you already own the phone, this will get you a cheap and de­cent VR ex­per­i­ence. We re­com­mend it for get­ting your hands wet, but Oculus GO or Gear VR are def­in­itely the min­im­um qual­ity you will want for reg­u­lar use. If you do not own the phone, we re­com­mend the Oculus GO in­stead, oth­er­wise a Google Card­board may suf­fice for a start.

Qual­ity: Low to Mid-Range
Price: $ 59.49

Google Card­board (Amazon)

This is a mo­bile head­set. It re­quires a phone that is com­pat­ible with the Google Card­board App (simply try in­stalling it on your phone). This is the cheapest, but also the low­est qual­ity VR ex­per­i­ence you can get. If you don’t like it, don’t give up on VR, it is not rep­res­ent­at­ive. Apart from that, it is su­per cool to be able to have any VR ex­per­i­ence for the price of two piz­zas.

While we link the of­fi­cial ver­sion, there are many cop­ies out there. Make sure, though, that the head­set has a but­ton, as that makes in­ter­ac­tion way easi­er.

Qual­ity: Low-End
Price: $ 15.00 (Mind po­ten­tial ship­ping cost!)
