Verdict

The Jabra Evolve 40 UC is a great headset for those who need to switch between softphones. It has excellent sound quality and noise cancellation, as well as a USB command module for easy control. The headset is comfortable to wear for long periods of time, and the inline control is conveniently built into the earpieces. However, some users have reported that when they enter certain audio chat settings or select recording devices in Windows, the sound quality drops dramatically.

Verdict

The Oculus Rift S is a great choice for those looking to upgrade their current VR experience. It offers a high resolution and clarity, as well as an easy setup process and access to a vast library of content from both Oculus and SteamVR. The main compromise is the built-in audio system, which some users may not be a fan of. Additionally, it uses DisplayPort as its connector, which may need to be replaced in the future. However, the controllers are no longer available at MSRP and there is limited support for the headset.
