HTC has just announced that its new Vive Pro headset will release next month, on April 5th. The HTC Vive Pro headset will be priced at $799, will support 2880×1600 resolution combined (1440 x 1600 resolution per eye) and will come with built-in headphones.
As the press release reads:
“The Vive Pro comes with dual-OLED displays making for a crisper image resolution of 2880 x 1600 combined, a 78% increase in resolution over the current Vive HMD. In addition to visuals, Vive Pro also features integrated, high-performance headphones with a built-in amplifier that creates a heightened sense of presence and sound through noise cancellation capabilities.”
HTC will also keep selling its previous headset, the HTC Vive, for $499. The HTC Vive supports 2160×1200 resolution (1080×1200 per eye), adjustable straps and interchangeable inserts, eye relief adjustments, integrated microphone and 110 degrees field of view.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
