Review on DeadEyeVR Ultimate Boxing Gloves - Premium Boxing Mitts for Oculus Quest and Rift S to Elevate Your Virtual Reality Boxing Experience with Thrill of The Fight and BoxVR by Sheila King

Revainrating 2 out of 5

That's why it won't be as cool as you imagine

What's better than wearing a real pair of boxing gloves when playing boxing games in virtual reality? A lot of! conscientious consumer with Quest 2:1) Controllers fall out of 3D printed holsters so you end up having to "squeeze" the controllers instead of just knocking them out. 2) Inserting and removing 3D printed holsters requires threading straps through a small hole. No fun. 3) Getting in and out of games becomes exponentially more of a chore because the gloves don't make it easy to press the buttons. 4) The gloves actually take away from the VR experience instead of adding it. It just feels and looks more natural to use the controllers alone instead of wearing them with boxing gloves. 5) The weight isn't as different as you might think. Add it all up and it doesn't add up. I like the idea, but in practice it just doesn't work the way it should. If you only do boxing you might be able to find a better way of tying them to regular boxing gloves, but that just doesn't work in my opinion.

Pros
  • It's great
Cons
  • Some bugs
