i have a quest 2, and its terrible after many years of use, its controllers have so so so many problems and my game keeps crashing mid vrchat freaky sesh with the fuzz (furry huzz)

so should i get a quest 3? my birthday is on march the 6th which is rather soon so i could get it then but at the same the quest 4 might get announced and released this year in October or november so should i just wait it out or nah

Steam Frame is expected to come out sometime early this year; might hold off for a bit to see how it compares if that's of interest to you.

i made a whole post on lemmy on why i dont want the steam frame lol

i was going to get the quest 3 for christmas but when the steam frame was announced i was so hyped that i made a deal with my mum that i can get it for my birthday if i give up getting anything for christmas.

so many people are glazing the steam frame to make it way more than it actually is. also its hella expensive.

I didn't see that post, sorry. If you've already written it off then, eh, get what you want.

also its hella expensive

They announced a price?

No price announced yet. But it'll definitely be more expensive than a quest 3.

I thought it was going to be 500£ but some estimate it will go up to 800

Meta is spyware garbage. Their entire business model is privacy invasion.

if I cared about that then I wouldn't have gotten a quest would I?

I gather they're also turning attention away from VR/XR and laying staff off in that domain

I don't think anything will beat the Quest 3 in value anytime soon

That depends on what you value

Quest 4 is rumored to release in 2027. I mean if you want to wait you can but the quest 3 is a fine headset with real sharp looking images

[–] helimopp@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah I think il get the quest 3 now :D
