The first Windows Mixed Reality VR headset we've tested, the Acer AH101-D8EY offers strong, affordable hardware for a platform that still has a lot of rough edges to smooth...
Lightweight, Visor can pop up when you're wearing it, Works with SteamVR
Feels like a budget device, even though it costs $400, Middling screen quality, Narrower field of view, Uncomfortable
Side by side, Samsung's and Acer's offerings seem like textbook examples of what to do, and what to avoid, when making VR headsets. The HMD Odyssey is comfortable, well-built and makes virtual reality seem incredibly immersive. Acer's, meanwhile, is none...

Retro chic design, easy setup, sharp display
£400 is too expensive for a Windows Mixed Reality headset, plasticy build, LCD panel isn't as vibrant as OLED, Rating:
The Acer Windows Mixed Reality headset is a solid virtual reality headset with integrated sensors and decent motion controllers. A sharp display and accurate movement tracking are only let down by the lack of 'mixed reality' content available through Micr...
High resolution display, Easy setup, Inside-out tracking
Uncomfortable, Limited game selection, Not price competitive, Unintuitive controllers
Not right now. The Oculus Rift is clearly a better pick. It's the same price, it's a better headset, it has better software, it's much more pleasant to use and, perhaps most importantly, it's more comfortable. Windows Mixed Reality might be a worthy inves...
Accessible PC VR, High resolution lenses, No external sensors needed,
Mixed Reality lacks software, Design can impact viewing quality, Controller tracking can be spotty
Acer gives us a decent first glimpse into the Windows Mixed Reality ecosystem with an affordable, plug-and-play HMD. The platform needs a lot more games, and they're on their way, but until that happens the Oculus Rift can be picked up for the same price...

Easy to set up, Excellent image quality, Great value
Cliff House interface is annoying, SteamVR support not ready
Of the headsets that I've tried, the Dell Visor is arguably a tiny bit more comfortable to wear, and it's currently a touch cheaper, too. As a result, it's the headset that I'd buy, but it's a very close-run thing, and the Acer Mixed Reality Headset hits...
