The process is simple and involves pressing the Vive logo button on the right controller and the hamburger button on the left controller. The next step is to connect the controllers. The on-screen calibration gives you a readout with two decimal points, but the dial isn't that precise, and we found that the measurement update interval doesn't keep up with the dial movement. The next step is the IPD adjustment, which is done with a dial found below your nose on the bottom of the visor. A progress bar will fill up as you hold the button, and when it completes, the app message goes away, and you'll find yourself in passthrough mode with an initial configuration process to follow. To bypass the app install screen, press and hold the menu button on the left side of the headset. Unfortunately, those apps were not available ahead of launch, so we have not tested them out. When I first started the headset, we were greeted with a message telling us to download the companion app for my smartphone or the desktop software for my computer.

However, the headset came pre-loaded with a small selection of apps for reviewers, which we'll get into in the dedicated section below. The headset that HTC provided us for this evaluation is a pre-release model which does not have all of its features enabled. Like the Quest controllers, the Focus 3 controller features a halo with infrared LEDs for tracking. The Focus 3 controllers feature internal lithium-ion batteries with a USB Type-C charge port on the bottom of each handle.
