HTC preheats the new Vive VR headset – small and portable


HTC Vive Flow

HTC recently released a warm-up for the new Vive VR headset. Although the company released an image of this device, it did not reveal any other information. The teaser which comes in a tweet has the text “Go small or go home”. This indicates that the new Vive VR headset will have a small form factor. This device may even be the successor to the Vive Flow. Shortly after the tweet, HTC emailed the media to confirm that this was indeed a teaser for the new headset.

It’s worth mentioning that Vive Flow doesn’t offer AR mode. The competition like ByteDance’s Pico 4 and Meta’s Quest Pro all use this mode. The latter will be on display at Meta Connect on October 11.

In the email, HTC also mentioned other technologies: “At MWC, we showcased our new private 5G solution, G-Reign, which streams PC-VR experiences to our VIVE Focus 3 head over ultra-fast wireless networks. Since then, we’ve expanded the VIVE Focus 3 ecosystem to include eye and face trackers. But maybe our requirements need to… get smaller?”
