Had my email from Parcel Force, mine should be delivered today
And the app says between 0900 and 1000
An OG Vive is the best I've tried so I'm hoping to be a little more 'blown away' than the Pimaxxers.
And it's here!
Congrats. I'm sure you'll love it coming from the OG Vive.
A few other interesting bits about Index. When you wipe the lenses they actually move. Yes its like they're on springs.
The A and B buttons on the Knuckles are also capsense so when you rest your fingers on them your thumb in VR goes down into a fist pose which is different to when you put your finger on the pill trackpad, the thumb is bent.
I stuggled getting the Knuckles finger tracking towork propperly but after resetting my PC it became near on perfect.
The external cameras work like they did for the OG Vive you have a Tron mode and a window pass through attached to the controller. The video quality looks good.
I had to re-install Revive to try a few Oculus games like the Climb which still uses trigger for grip, Echo VR which works really well will the grip buttons and Dream Deck. The T-Rex in Dream looked so solid and so real it was uncanny.
For Onward the Knuckles no longer fit into my DIY tube stock and the control sticks didn't seem to let me move at full speed. That game needs a few Knuckles tweeks I think.
When it comes to YouTube the Index lenses give you a full focused view and it slightly easier on the eye than the Pimax but there is still a Razor shaprness about the Pimax I like. The glare issue on the Index does affect video too sadly.
The Pimax has the ability to adjust contrast and brightness while the Index does not (yet) which means the Index looks a bit more washed out. This could be fixed.
If you have the Pimax with the DAS already the Index is not a upgrade imo. If you are picky about distortions you might be AS pickly about the Index glare or the Index FOV. Coming from the OG Vive - Index is a good upgrade all round and you will be happy.
I've not tried the Reverb but the small FOV is not for me.
I've not tried the Rift S the inside out tracking is not for me.
I've not tried the Samsung O+ the controllers are not for me.
So Pimax and Index are FOR ME the two best headsets to own in 2019 - so far.
