Got my Rift today, and would like to share some of thoughts with you all.
1. It arrived in very good shape. love the box ! it looks absolutely premium
2. Installation, smooth as butter
3. As soon as i did put it on, and the first images where appearing i was stunned with the visual quality. it is a big step up compared to the DK2. yes, those godrays are there, but they are not disturbing me at all. i am thrilled about it...
4. it was a warm day here, and had nearly no issue at all with fogging
5. only minor issue i'm having is that in some apps, the image seems to judder back and forth, most likely i need to fine tune my sensor placement
6. with the DK2 i got dizzy and VR sick quite easy, with the CV1 no issue at all, even after 3hours of first use !
COULD NOT BE MORE HAPPY !!!!!!!!!! i was a bit affraid, with some of the forum posts we are seeing in here and on reddit, but it is an amazing piece of hardware !
Satisfied here too 😉 and yeah, ED is awesome, aside from color banding. @Tjames66 - does yours have the color banding too? ie around stars
My Rift also has a red haze in the lower portion of the left screen, but only in dark scenes.. tbh its not been bothering me, but feels a bit odd since its only on one screen 😞 Other than that, loving it so far.
FWIW, Support have replied very rapidly to the above, that I wasn't expecting.. although still ongoing, but like I say, its not actually bothering me, at all.
CV1: Ordered 6th Jan 2016 - Est Delivery Some time in May...
DK2: Ordered: 8th of Aug 2014 - Delivered: 14 Oct 2014
I love it when ppl don't just show up when stuff is bad at their side. Nice review. I hope my Monday will sort out the same good way ^^ I already got a HDMI cable of 0.5 m for being super safe in HDMI matters ^^
