TL;DR: The mind-blowing HTC Vive Pro Starter Kit is on sale for $899.99 for Prime Day, saving you $200.


Weeknights be like: Come home from work, make food, watch The Office reruns, eat more because you’re bored, go to bed.

If your nightly cycles look anything like that, you’re in need of some life-changing entertainment. A VR headset can transform the way you interact with games and the world around you, and a few are on sale for Prime Day. 

The Oculus Go is an amazing “baby’s first VR headset choice,” but if you’re willing to go all-in on something more immersive, this HTC Vive Pro Kit will not disappoint. It’s $899.99 after the $200 discount, which is rare to begin with — HTC Vive stuff is never on sale.

Ok true, dropping that much on VR stuff may sound ridiculous to some, but there’s a difference between an $80 headset that stops at 360-degree views and a $1,000 headset that literally makes you feel like you’ve entered a different dimension. It’s not for newbies who would be impressed by the Google Cardboard — it’s for hardcore gamers who care about all things graphics. (The new HTC Vive Pro Eye starts at $1,599, so this is technically the budget-friendly option.)

Some true Jimmy Neutron shit, the headset features a 2880 x 1600 dual AMOLED display for sharp visuals no matter where you look. That, combined with the precision movement tracking, will have you feeling like you’ve actually been transported elsewhere — and the 3D spatial sound completes the trifecta for a truly lifelike experience.

This complete premium VR package gets you the Vive Pro headset, two SteamVR base stations, and two Vive controllers. You’ll also get a six-month code to Viveport Infinity for unlimited access to VR apps, games, and videos (usually $12.99/month).

Regularly $1,099.99, Prime members can save $200 and get the kit for $899.99.
