CES 2017, the largest consumer electronics show in the world is just around the corner, the number of rumoured launches is picking up pace. According to a recent report by Taipei-based Central News Agency and Digitimes, HTC would be launching the next version of Vive during the show. The new version most likely to be called HTC Vive 2 is expected to come with much-needed upgrades than the first iteration.
The report goes on detailing the changes that we can expect from the product which includes the most exciting evolution that we have long been waiting. HTC Vive 2 could be coming with a wireless transmitter that helps it connect with the PC. The wireless transmitter means that you are no longer tethered to the system and can move around without the fear of tripping around or smashing your system with a tug of the wire.
Another significant upgrade that will come with Vive 2 is improved resolution for better image quality. The package will come with two 4K displays that will come with 120Hz refresh rate, up from the current 90Hz for increased comfort level while using the headset for extended periods of time.
HTC has slashed the prices of current HTC Vive headset by 10 percent in the Chinese market, in addition to discounts in post-Christmas sales. HTC has not announced anything officially so the launch may not happen during CES, but that’s how rumours go, right? It is entirely possible that the company shows off the next generation behind closed doors without any formal announcement, but regardless we will keep you updated.
