Meta Quest 3 & 3S Price Increase Coming

Unpopular opinion: Still worth it. The amount of entertainment value I've gotten out of my Quest 3 over the last year and half far exceeds the cost in terms of dollars spent. Being able to watch movies on a big screen in VR alone has made the Quest 3 worth it.

Translation: “Since VR is not our priority anymore, we want to stop loosing money and sell these products at least at cost. Moreover we lowered down production estimates which increased pricing per unit”

@Wario64 Ah yes, increase the price of the thing people already don't buy. Great idea

Valve waiting to reveal the price on the Steam Machine (PS5 price increase) and the Steam Frame (Meta Quest 3 price increase) paying big dividends.

I understand, it's honestly worth it. I hope everyone gets their hands on tech like this, including XR glasses such as the viture luma ultras.

@UploadVR @Heaney555 Let me just say right now that quest 3 with its clunky UI is NOT worth $600. RIP affordable VR

The thing that shocks me the most about this is that Meta took so long to raise prices lol.
