HTC Offers Limited-Time Price Cut on Vive Pro 2 Headset & Bundle

Alright, let’s get into this. Picture this scene: it’s 2021 and the VR world just got a little more crowded. Who would’ve thought? HTC dropped their Vive Pro 2 back then, and it’s been their golden child in the PC VR universe. Suddenly, today—out of nowhere—it’s like someone flipped a switch and decided to be generous. The headset’s cheaper than a trip to a decent theme park, for a limited time. Who saw that coming, right?

So, here’s the scoop: HTC’s Summer of Gaming Sale is on, like, yesterday! It’s running till June 30th. If you’re on the hunt for something that screams “I’m last season but still cool,” grab the Vive Pro 2. Trust me, it’s not a bad call. There’s a whole setup bundle or just the headset, whichever tickles your fancy.

Alright, so check this out:

• Vive Pro 2 Full Kit ($1,199 – $799.99): You get everything but the kitchen sink—headset, SteamVR 2.0 Base Station, and those chunky Vive wand controllers.

• Vive Pro 2 Headset ($699 – $499.99): Just the headset, folks. No extras.

Both options are throwing a couple of months of Viveport Infinity into the mix. You know, that subscription thingy with a ton of VR games? Yeah, that one.

Now, let’s geek out for a quick sec—specs time:

• Resolution: 2,448 × 2,448 per-eye, LCD (so… like, wow?).
• Refresh Rate: 90Hz, 120Hz. Speeds for days.
• Lenses: Dual-element Fresnel. Don’t ask me what that means, but sounds fancy.
• Field-of-view: 120° horizontal. That’s a wide peep.
• You can tweak the IPD and eye-relief. No idea why but hey, it’s there.
• Connectors: It’s got USB and DisplayPort jacks.
• Cable Length: 5 meters, which I’m guessing is enough to wrap around a small room?
• Tracking gear and all that jazz included too.

Okay, confession time—I know it’s looking a bit dated with those thick lenses and bulk. Isn’t that always the way with tech, though? Then there’s Bigscreen Beyond 2, strutting around with its slick new look. But you know what? You save $200 with this baby, and it ain’t a bad deal at all if you’ve got the right PC to back it up.

Oh, and just when you think you’re done with options, there’s the Focus Vision from 2024—still fresh-ish. This one’s got its bundles too. Maybe chuck some games your way, just for fun.

Let’s lay down the Focus Vision bundles real quick:

• Vive Focus Vision – PC VR Kit ($1,149): Comes with everything to go wired or wireless, plus a couple of games like Metro Awakening.

• VIVE Focus Vision ($1,049): Again, a few games tossed your way.

Funny tidbit: this Focus Vision’s actually pricier now than it was last year, all thanks to US tariffs on stuff from China. Who doesn’t love a good tariff story?

If you’re across the pond, Europe and the UK aren’t left out. They’ve got some tasty deals too, before you ask. Prices slashed on Vive Pro 2 bundles and other gadgety goodness till June 30th.

Anyway, there it is. A bit of the old and the new, with some discounts to make it all a little more tempting. So, if you’re feeling the itch for tech—or maybe just have the word "VR" permanently stuck in your brain from this read—you know what’s out there now. Happy VR-ing! Or… whatever the equivalent verb would be.
