For Elite: Dangerous fans, what's the current best bet for a VR setup if one doesn't have 4 USB ports? Is there even an option?

I got a gaming laptop right as the first VR headsets were coming out, and I'm just at the cusp of being able to power them with my setup, but the input ports may be my limiting factor.

Windows Mixed Reality headset is your best bet in my opinion. I just got a Samsung Odyssey+ for $300 dollars. It has the exact same high res oled screen as the vive pro, and it only has an HDMI and USB 3.0 connector. Doesn't even require external power. Worked right out of the box for me with Elite as well and looked amazing. So much clearer than my Vive.
