IDC's first VR equipment shipment report

This is the first time IDC has announced the sales of VR headsets, so we can't see the comparison between shipments and previous quarters. However, IDC believes that sales of Samsung Gear VR are actually declining. Of course, they think the downturn is only temporary, and Samsung will be back on track after the storm of the Note 7 burn-in accident. In addition, with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S8, Gear VR sales will usher in a wave of climax, because Samsung will give this headset free of charge in many markets.

Sony’s shipments followed Samsung’s, and PS VR sold 429,000 units in the first quarter. Although PS VR does not have the performance of HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, its linkage with PS4 or PS4 Pro gives it a broad user base. In addition, the price of PS VR is relatively reasonable. Therefore, IDC believes that Sony is still the leader in this field in the short term.

In addition to the advantages of the equipment, Sony has a content advantage in the game industry for many years. Following the launch of Resident Evil on PS VR in January this year, the famous game production company Kapukong said that it will continue to launch game masterpieces on the platform in the future.

With the good performance of Vive, HTC ranked third, and the aircraft shipments reached 191,000 units in the first quarter. Although Vive is the most expensive VR headset on the market, IDC believes that HTC has achieved some success in commercial projects. Their VR experience pavilion has spread all over the world, and even IMAX is using HTC Vive.

The last two of the top five are Oculus Rift and TCL's Alcatel VR helmets, with shipments of 100,000 units and 91,000 units respectively.

Oculus Rift definitely doesn't lose HTC Vive on the hardware, but last year it went through the delivery delay and various legal disputes. This year, the company's co-founder Palmer Rachi also left. However, they have recently adopted a price reduction strategy and have introduced new accessories to win users.

Unfortunately, IDC's data does not include Google (Weibo) Daydream devices.
