Index is awesome but you also need a well spec'd PC, have $999 on hand, and wait a few months for one. I believe the waiting list is 2-3 months now. I missed my reservation the first time, so if you really want one be vigilant in checking your email and Steam account.
Pros
- Knuckles controllers, still nothing like them
- External base station tracking, the only option that opens up full body tracking and makes it easy to do feet based movement
- High Refresh rate
- Good FOV
Cons
- Knuckles still isn't universally supported
- LCD screen and no OLED
- Reverb G2 has a much better screen
- Wires
I would recommend the G2 but its tracking and controllers just aren't as good as the Index, unless you're just going to use it for driving and flying games.
- zhynn 6y agoDon't forget the revolutionary off-ear audio. It's fantastic, and as far as I know, there's still nothing out there like it.
- jsheard 6y agoThe Reverb G2 apparently uses the same audio hardware as the Index
- judge2020 6y agoCurrent wait time for Index is 12-14 weeks (got mine in 12) - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10CTIAd7OzNJhzkimpCFDzeqHPCPN-EMYb0Y7mzjyv4U/edit https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10CTIAd7OzNJhzkimpCFD...
