Yep, put it in VR News as sort of ‘not just about Rift S, not just about HP Reverb’, so best compromise:
I put a lot of stock in having a better FOV and heard really good things about the Pimax for this, so this is encouraging.
How long did it take to get from order to delivery? Is it quite quick now?
True?
I don’t know if that is true or not, but that grammar sure needs to get clawed back.
No idea if true or not, but nature abhors a vacuum so with HP saying nothing this seems good enough for me. 
I guess if there is an issue with color correction or mura etc, then it’s good they aren’t ignoring it. While I’d like to see lots more reviews and hands-on, it seems like a good idea not to ship em out bust.
I mentioned it to Tyriel Wood, and he says he ordered from Amazon as well, but has received no word.
For me, i ordered and it took about one week. I live in Finland. I used local re/sellershop so i dont have to fight about pimax support.
Pimax is still not perfect, but lates beta software is many ways step to near perfect.
But sometimes its bit plug and pray with some games.
But not in DCS , i just pick pimax and start dcs = works 100% every time.
HP finally discovers the internet, google’s ‘web site’ and posts this on the delays of the Reverb:
The summary is there was a production issue, they had to fix it, so they did, and now they hope to make and ship some ‘soon’.
Well, that seemed honest.
Not the type of info you’d expect from a company like Hewlett-Packard, but good info, even so.
I’m rooting for them. I hope the Reverb is a raving success! The VR industry need success stories, not failures… We want more options, not less.
That was an awesome letter from HP. It is clear that whoever wrote it has a lot of passion for the product. Bodes well for the Reverb.
Quick Tested review summary, although it’s worth a watch.
Controllers are bad, or rather just as bad as the current WMR stuff. Use a wheel or HOTAS or something that you play sitting down.
Screens and resolution is the best of this generation.
Comfy, sort of a Rift OG clone in terms of style.
If you do driving or flying and clarity is important then might be worth a look. If looking for more general VR experiences then the Rift S looks good.
Man that Reverb picture quality is nice. Given that most of my in headset time is in seated VR with hardware HOTAS, this might be perfect for me. I’ve not used those standard controllers…apparently the O+ ones are an improvement on those, so I’d hate to go backwards there, but again, given the 90% percentile of what I’m doing with my headset, it might be a pain I can endure.
Rec Room and Beat Saber demos make me die inside as a simmer…LOL…
Did you notice the highest Tested tried HP Reverb on for their reviews on the SteamVR settings with their 1080 (not Ti either) was at 175%? Amateurs, got to get that PC on fire! 
I’m less worried about performance now, in that we’re trading ‘supersampling’ what we do already just for plain ‘per pixel’ sampling. Maybe. lol
I also thought that review was generally positive for those of us who use VR only for swimming titles. The only downside I got personally from that review was black levels which wouldn’t be so hot for Elite Dangerous or DCS night missions.
Their comments about being better able to see things in the distance immediately made me think of target spotting in DCS and how much better it may become with this set.
Since I only use VR for flightsims, this seems to be the perfect headset for me.
He’s leaning in pretty far to read the gauges, but that’s probably because of his less than stellar lens filming…
If you’re going to do a professional through the lens video, you’re better off using a proper camera and a jig instead of a handheld smartphone.
