Roto VR Explorer review: a head-turning solution to one of VR's biggest problems


If you're a hardcore VR gamer, the Roto VR Explorer will take your experience to the next level

Accomodating a fairly sizable and heavy chair solely for virtual reality isn't practical for everyone, and its powerful motors and operational beeps make a considerable amount of noise, especially when using the faster turning speeds. And with no arm rests, upper back support and a rather unforgiving seat, I can't imagine anyone using the Roto VR Explorer as a more traditional swivel chair. On the higher speed settings in particular, the chair’s motors and sudden stops mid-turn make it too loud to drown out using the Meta Quest 3 or 3S’s built-in speakers.
