A tale of two headsets: Hands-on HTC Vive XR Elite and Magic Leap 2 at CES 2023 CES2023
, Magic Leap 2 retains its svelte figure by putting the battery and processor in a separate puck that you can wear on your belt. This has the effect of making the headgear lightweight and quite comfortable to wear. It also means you’ll have a cable running from the puck to your head, and I could feel the puck on my hip.As promised, the Magic Leap 2 headset was comfortable to wear.
It had been a little while since I’d worn a Vive VR headset. The original device I tried was VR-only and needed beacons placed around a room to know your position; the HTC Vive XR Elite is fully self-contained. It’s also redesigned to be lighter and support AR as well as VR. I used both the included dual controllers and my hands to interact with the games. During something called Maestro in which I conducted an orchestra, one hand held a remote which I used to grip, tap, and wave a virtual baton. My other hand was free, and I used it to point, on queue, at various sections of the orchestra. I was surprised to see that the Vive XR Elite recognized the movement of all five fingers on my free hand. I’m sure the four cameras and 3D depth sensor play a role here.
