October 21, 20214 yr Varjo have launched a new VR headset the Aero, aimed at the sim/game market. Previously the XR-3 was €5500 plus tax and an annual sub of €1500, the Aero which uses the same optics is €2000 plus tax, no subscription. Yes, still very expensive - but within the reach of the die hard simmer or someone who might have invested that sort of money on a cockpit installation. VR flight sim guy, and the guy from MRTV both Youtubers I respect when it comes to VR, are gushing with superlatives. The comparison pics compared with a G2 are very impressive. The Head of Flight Simulation at Microsoft said this: I look forward to seeing the reviews! Eugene
