HP not only surprised the new Envy 17 with a DVD drive but also a new virtual reality headset, the Reverb. The new headset offers extreme display resolution for both eyes, a relatively wide viewing angle and a fairly good price.
SOURCE | HPThe HP Reverb surprises mainly with a resolution of 2.89 ″ displays inside with a refresh rate of 90 Hz. They offer a resolution of 2 160 x 2 160 px for each eye. The viewing angle is 114 ° in both Frencel-aspherical glasses, which is also not for discarding.
SOURCE | HPThe manufacturer praises itself with the use of very lightweight materials to ensure carrying comfort. There are two cameras in the front with the same viewing angle as the glass inside. Cameras find usage in extended, resp. mixed reality from Microsoft. The Reverb headset without a computer does not work. Connecting to it with a cable, the wireless solution is not yet.
SOURCE | HPThe HP Reverb will be available in two versions – for consumers and business customers. A regular consumer for a headset pays $ 599, a business clientele gives about $ 50 more. It will have a shorter cable to work with the headset at the computer. Both prices are without taxes. For us, the Reverb VR will cost significantly more. The new device is coming to the market in April.
