@Mradr - While I respect you opinion did you read what I said? HP said their was high demand for their headset and the HP doesn't have eye tracking and can be used using a Geforce 1080i.

Yes, but they also have a high return rate as well let alone the supply (shortages) to supply their current customers - so HP really isn't a good example in all this =/

Well then you obviously haven't read that HP have fixed the issues. It was down to some components with a high tolerance instead of a low tolerance and also a simple clip. Should we now derail the thread and start talking about problems with all the current VR headsets instead now?

Well if they can't keep up with supply then they shouldn't really call themselves a company. The Rift S is £399 right now. How much do you think it would cost to put the HP displays in a Rift S? Do you seriously think that would increase the cost to $1.5 when the HP Reverb sells for £594? I'd say it would cost no more then maybe £200 more to put them displays in a Rift S, bringing the total to £599.

Problems of each headset comes down to the price at witch they are set at or limited to with their technology witch is what I pointed out already. It's not a derail - it's just a understanding that everyone needs to understand before moving on calling out a company on why they don't make a higher end headset.
What would be the point if they can't keep up with supply, increasing FOV if the lenses create distortion, or even keeping prices with in reason (every other $1.5k+ headset).

Hmmm so Intel isn't a company:)? I think that is a bit of poor reasoning to say that. Well with better controllers and extra cameras we be looking at $699 or $749 realistically. Hey, as I said - I think they could support a higher end headset as well and I don't understand why they don't really. It's just the numbers they saw told them that range of number didn't sell that many headsets compare to the $399 range did.
