At the ChinaJoy 2017, HTC announced its first Vive Standalone virtual reality head-mounted display. The VR headset specifically targets the China market and it will utilise Viveport as its official content platform. The exact design of the headset was now shown at the event, but it appears to be cosmetically identical to the one which HTC is bringing to the US with Google.
HTC says that it will be simple, lightweight and portable, and the differences between the headsets seem to be in tracking technologies and VR platforms. The biggest highlights of the new premium standalone VR headset is the Snapdragon 835 SoC, which will deliver an "outstanding standalone VR experience" making it the "best-in-class premium device for this segment in the China market".
