<p>Urho Konttori, founder and chief technology officer at Varjo, says: “We’ve heard the demand from leading-edge VR users such as aviators, creators and racing simulation enthusiasts to bring our highest-fidelity devices to everyone, not just enterprises.”</p>
<p> “As a result, we are proud to bring to market Varjo Aero, the best VR headset that anyone can get. This device, together with our Reality Cloud platform, continues our mission to make a true-to-life metaverse accessible for all.”</p>
<p>Compared to the prices of its other headsets ($3,195, VR-3, and $5,495, XR-3), Aero is a sign that Varjo is striving to make its hardware more accessible to a wider user base, a step the company also took with the release of VR-3 and XR-3.</p>
<p>What Varjo has delivered is a headset that sounds highly capable and quite possibly a challenger to other leading PC VR headsets on the market.</p>
