First things first, because this is a wearable device the whole thing needs to feel sturdy, as well as offer a good quality experience when you’re using it. Luckily, the PSVR has the first one nailed down to a tee. From the time I’ve spent with my own unit, the whole thing feels well put together for the most part. The only area I feel slightly concerned about the build quality is the headband that keeps the whole thing attached to your face. When pulling it back to fit around your head they seem a tad fragile. It’s not like it’s going to break immediately, however, I do have my concerns on whether eventual wear and tear might have its way in the future.

As for the actual quality of the experience when you get the thing onto your head, the visuals are good, but not great. It’s definitely not at the same level of visual fidelity as the much more expensive HTC Vive, but that’s what you get for paying the premium price. What you get with the PlayStation VR is neat visuals and as long as you’ve got it on your head and all set up the right way you really feel like you’re in this new virtual world. You’ll notice almost a grainy film over the image, but after a while you won’t even realize it.
