Keep in mind that this device has a pixel density far superior even to the one of the Valve Index, so it is perfect not only for gaming but also for prototyping, design and architecture. HP and Microsoft have a long track in offering enterprise hardware, so this headset may battle HTC on his own land (B2B). Snapdragon 845 RAM ?—?6GB
