Valve confirmed with PC Gamer (via Skarred Ghost) that it’s working on a new headstrap with hot-swappable batteries and Balanced Mode Radiator (BMR) drivers which are said to match the off-ear speakers seen in Valve Index.

Index, which was just discontinued, has long been the audio bar for VR headsets since its release in 2019.

Don't worry about Valve, they have sold every single Frame they've managed to produce so far, and there are more buyers lined up for future production runs well into 2027. But it sucks that this cool technology is out of reach for so many people.
