Review
The DPVR E3C headset is an overall good product with notable features such as image quality and a durable and lightweight design. The cables are fairly long, and the software is simple to use. The VR headset, on the other hand, does not include controllers or room scaling, which limits the gaming experience.
Compatible with many VR game platforms
The E3-C is compatible with a wide range of VR game platforms, including SteamVR, DK1, DK2, and VR online. This is the primary distinction between the DPVR E3-B and the DPVR E3-B, which is only compatible with SteamVR.
Comfortable headset for the user
The headset weighs approximately 305g, reducing pressure on the user’s face. It also has a strap that can be adjusted and an IPD adjustment. The headset can also be worn over eyeglasses. Attaching the NOLO console adds some weight and causes your head to tilt forward slightly, but only slightly. The 16ms latency however improves the user experience and prevents VR sickness.
Good image resolution
The DPVR E3C has a very nice image resolution with a total image resolution of 2560 x 1440 for both eyes. The resolution also reaches 2560 x 1440 p, allowing for quick display brightness and focus adjustment. It also reduces the effects of screen doors and afterglow. Coming from a small screen in front of your face, the graphics and brightness are incredibly vibrant and impressive. There is never any visual lag. The lenses, on the other hand, act like a magnifying glass and can quickly cause fire damage to the screens.
Limited gaming experience
Because the DPVR E3C is a three-dimensional (DOF) headset, it cannot be used to physically walk through a virtual space. The E3C, on the other hand, is recommended when playing a simulation game or watching a VR movie. You can use the headset with a keyboard and mouse, for example, or with a steering wheel and/or flight joystick.
Not a wireless experience
The headset must be connected to an HDMI port with a dedicated graphics card. You’ll also need three USB ports for the headset. Being tethered to the computer by cords is a disadvantage for those seeking affordable wireless VR systems.
Doesn’t come with built-in headphones
A few features that would have made the product stand out are missing. First, it lacks built-in headphones, which means you must either wear additional headgear or go without sound. Furthermore, the controllers are said to provide haptic feedback, but this does not always work.
Doesn’t come with real instructions
Unfortunately, the headset does not come with any instructions. The setup instructions are a little difficult to follow as if they were written in another language and you had to translate them to English. You may need to conduct your own research on Google or YouTube to determine what to do and how to do it. They do, however, have videos and reading material available online. There is also software that must be downloaded before you can begin playing.
