Somnium is a Czech startup previously solely focused on its social VR platform Somnium Space. But in late 2021 it announced the Somnium VR1 headset with a monster spec sheet for the time, in partnership with VRgineers - known for its ultra-high end XTAL headsets for enterprise. Originally Somnium VR1 was pitched as a hybrid headset with standalone capabilities via an onboard Snapdragon XR2 chipset, but that idea was ditched in 2022 to focus on making it a solely PC VR headset instead.

    General consensus appears to be that the Somnium headsets are terrible value at these prices and the hype train has derailed. Anyone actually interested in buying one of these?

    Just hoping the Pico 4s release doesn’t disappoint now
