    These are the same complaints most report for most vr headsets, headaches, nausea and dry eyes… Disappointing article.

      Some are, sure. But others have to do with the weight. The most interesting rationals for returning it are because it’s shit as a productivity tool. So if you can’t really use it for work, there aren’t many games on it, then why are you keeping it? At that point it’s just a TV that only you can watch (since it doesn’t support multiple user profiles).

      Given the odd weight distribution, it’s also unfortunate that this may have been their first headset.

      Your comment suggests you read the first paragraph and didn’t read the rest which is disappointing.

      The article talks about the most common complaint being comfort, then goes on to other complaints like the fact it offers no productivity savings and is expensive.

      It’s a bit of a no brainer though at end of day. Anyone surprised this is just a gimmick like any other is new to the VR space.

        Yea looking at the site I mistook the large gaps between paragraphs to be the end of the article. Going over it and I can see I missed a large deal. But I am still unsurprised with the reasons why people are returning the headsets. Its expensive, sold for productivity yet is restricting and uncomfortable. Vr has a place in the world and that is mostly media consumption.
