The Vive Pro is the Bugatti Veyron supercar of virtual reality headsets – an exotic, expensive creature for VR connoisseurs.
If virtual reality is an early adopter market, then the HTC Vive Pro is for the earliest adopters. The first refresh we've seen to consumer VR headsets in two years, it's destined be niche-not so much a Vive 2 as a Vive 1.5, with all the connotations that brings.
When the Vive and the Oculus Rift came out in the spring of 2016, they did something incredible: they made VR actually worth caring about. Previously, the closest thing people had come to virtual reality were weird sci-fi movies or half-baked products like the Virtual Boy .

The HTC VIVE Pro turns out to be everything it should be. Today, it provides the overall best VR user experience you can find, which is why it is a no-brainer buy for Professionals. For non-professionals, it is less obvious since the VIVE Pro has not been designed to provide the "best value".
Although the Vive Pro was released back in March, you could previously only buy the headset. You'd then have to purchase motion controllers and base stations separately. The only problem is its price.
