The Vive Cosmos Play is an entry-level VR headset that was featured in the most anticipated 2020 Vive Cosmos lineup.

Experienced VR players looking to fully immerse themselves in the alternative world would prefer an already robust VR headset. For that part, we recommend you to consider Cosmos Elite since it has a starting price tag of $999 and is available for pre-order.
However, if you want to stay on the budget-side and have the option to upgrade over the time. The Vive Cosmos Play is a good choice that will definitely worth your money.
