Worth-it verdict
Check exclusive game libraries, 4K/60-120Hz TV output, storage expansion costs, and subscription ecosystems. Prioritise 2.4GHz USB-C dongle latency, planar or dynamic driver tuning, clamp comfort over long sessions, and boom-mic clarity. Compare pancake-lens clarity, standalone library vs PC VR / PS5 tethering, weight balance, and passthrough comfort. Compelling when discounted or when its platform library, driver tuning, or ergonomics fit your setup.
