Vortex UH1 gen2, why I picked it over Eotech and why I think it’s better!#review #comparison

I like the reticule better than Eotech's and the design is very cyberpunk cool imo. The main complaint I have with all Vortex rds, not just this holographic, is their refresh rate. If you're transitioning between targets you can see very clearly the reticule drag or skipping. Not with Eotech. Other than that I really like the UH1. I picked up my UH1-gen 2 for $400 which I think is a steal. At $500+... not so much. You can get an EXPS 3-0 for that price. Vortex... price this at $100 cheaper like it used to be and you'd sell more. Fix your damn refresh rates too!

The refresh, the blue glass, the fact that it's not great with a magnifier or under nods are all deal breakers for me. We shoot at night here.

If the optic is ipx8 this means the optic wasn’t specifically test to water but it’s the max resistance as far as dust is concerned if the optic was tested the rating would be ip68 instead of the x

Good video. I just picked mine up this week. Also waiting for the Eotech to come in, do you think you would still stick to the vortex if the Eotech was around the same exact price point?

man i want to bring one of these on deployment. i haven't seen any stress test regarding dust and sand

You can get uh-1 for under $450 rn. Great vídeo.

Your reasons are understandable. If there’s anything I’ve learned, it’s that things are only worth as much as you’re willing to pay for. I’m not saying the UH1 is bad, but it does look “futuristic” like it belongs on a futuristic gun lol EOTechs just looks more aesthetically pleasing on any gun.

I personally love the look and actually tried to like it but the optic itself didnt work for me.

The gen 2 is 600 bucks….. not much price diff honestly

curious...how is it American made glass but you said the reticle is outsourced overseas..???
