Quest 3 Is Now Used On Steam As Much As Valve Index
Quest 3 is now used for SteamVR almost as much as Valve Index, suggesting it will surpass it soon.
The main reason for that has to be the price factor I feel like, although I could be overlooking another reason.
I will never buy a product produced by Meta, so whenever I do decide to pony up for a headset, it will most likely be a Valve product.
Its more than pure price, the quest 3 is also higher resolution, stand alone, pancake lenses, wireless...
I have a quest 3, and absolutely love mine, use it both for wireless pcvr and standalone gaming.
I’m just sitting here waiting patiently for Valve to put out a new headset so I can upgrade from my Quest 1. Never wanna give Meta any more of my money.
I was upset because I bought my Oculus headset before Facebook acquired it and then forced me to have a log in of theirs.
I decided not to have a Facebook account for a reason. Mainly because I don't trust the company with my data. As enticing it is to have a VR headset and I would love to for their price ... ... I just don't want to give Meta any more of my cash.
What's happening in VR now is that Meta is licensing their Horizon OS so maybe other manufacturers can make their own headsets with Meta's OS on top. That introduces another problem because I don't trust that their OS isn't spying on me either ....
I would bet good money that their OS is spying you and me and everyone.
Might want to check out Bigscreen Beyond VR and Shiftall Megane X.
The Bigscreen one is already out and looks like a nice upgrade over the Valve Index.
As a fan of VR, Meta having such a foothold in the space sucks so much ass. I don't care how "good" their hardware is, I'm never giving them money.
