Here's what we recommend for you, these are our top picks!
Oculus Quest 2
The Oculus Quest 2 has to be one of our favourite picks, and for great reasons. Firstly, having a relatively inexpensive price point, starting at £299, is one of its biggest strengths!
Additionally, the Quest 2 runs at a minimum of 90Hz refresh rate, with a stunning 3664×1920 display, and a 100 degrees field of view. It is also wireless, which is a cool bonus!
The Quest 2 is truly one of the best options, being cheap and offering amazing quality. So, you just cannot go wrong with it. It's really straightforward to set up, and in case you run into any trouble, the support site will be a valuable asset to you.
Additionally, the Quest 2 is set to get support in the future, unlike the Oculus Rift S and Quest 1. Facebook is discontinuing the latter two headsets in favour of the Quest, which goes to show how much they believe in the model.
HTC Vive Pro 2
If budget isn't an issue for you, then we would like to recommend the HTC Vive Pro 2 for you. Despite what you may have heard, this headset provides the best quality of visuals out there.
Having an incredible resolution of 4896 x 2448, with a 120Hz refresh rate, the Vive Pro 2 looks stunning.
The Vive Pro 2, as we mentioned, is pricey at around £700 (including all the parts). One of the main downsides of this peripheral is the fact that you may have to spend on additional pieces.
It does give you the option to mix and match parts, but that might be daunting for some.
