HTC unveils the $1,099 Vive XR Elite headset with a Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2, 110-degree field of view, and two 90HZ 2K LCD displays, available in February 2023

For businesses and arcades I can see this being potentially interesting but for just gaming this feels like a headset disguised as a b2b product and it probably is.
