A valuable purchase, some advantages!

For some, the length of the wire, about 3.5 m, may be a disadvantage, but for my room this was more than enough, so I indicated this in a comment, and not in the "disadvantages"
In general, I was satisfied with the helmet: when I put it on for the first time, there was a “wow effect”, this is a very cool feeling. Yes, sometimes the hand disappears, but in general it does not cause any severe discomfort: in most games you do not have to put your hand behind your back for a long time, get an arrow / weapon at most, etc., and I had no problems with this, but in front of you everything works fine. It's also handy that you can switch to the helmet cameras and see what's around you to move away from the wall. The camera is black and white, but it's enough to look around.

Pros

• Good picture quality; • Large viewing angle; • Adjustment of interpupillary distance; •It is convenient to put on and take off the helmet, it is convenient to adjust it •Built-in headphones of good quality, transmit sound perfectly, that is, you do not have to buy headphones separately with a long wire (or connect wireless ones) • Batteries come with the controllers, I don't know if they come with other VR helmets since this is my first purchase, but it was very convenient when you can immediately connect the VR and start playing without thinking about what I need to find batteries somewhere else. They lasted 15 hours, which is very good. However, further I recommend buying rechargeable batteries so that you can simply charge them, and not constantly buy new ones.

Cons

• The price is too high, I do not recommend taking it at a price of 55 thousand. Personally, I took Odyssey + for 39, and the VR is quite worth the money, and ~ 55 and more, as for me, is too overpriced. You should wait until the price drops. • The tracker does not always "catches your hand": if you raise your hand strongly up or behind your back, the VR will "lose" your controller, and until it enters the camera's field of view, it will not move in the game. However, you can turn the controller, press the buttons, it will transmit this information. • You won't be able to play in the dark, for the tracking of controllers you need light, and preferably bright, otherwise it will not track the controllers.

Brad to take for that kind of money. In December of last year, a regular discount Odyssey could be snatched for 15+k.
