The standard 128GB headset will now set you back $199.
Meta has reduced the price of the Quest 2 for a permanent period of time for the second time this year itself. For the base headset with 128GB of storage, the business has reduced the price to $199, which is a decrease from the previous price of $249. The Quest 2 was available for purchase from the firm at a price of $299 till January 2.
Obviously, the price reduction is a response to the fact that the firm has recently released Meta Quest 3, which is significantly more powerful and capable than its predecessor and begins at a significantly higher price of $499. The markdown gives the impression that Meta is attempting to get rid of the remaining inventory of the model that came before it. In spite of this, the Quest 2 is our top choice for the most affordable virtual reality headset, and the fact that it is now only $199 makes it even more enticing.
You will be able to get a headset that includes fast-switching LCD screens with a resolution of 1832×1920 per eye and a refresh rate of 90Hz for a couple hundred dollars. In addition to providing access to cloud gaming services such as Xbox Cloud Gaming, it currently possesses a substantial collection of virtual reality applications. The Quest 2 is a good starting point for virtual reality, regardless of how you look at it.
In addition, Meta has just reduced the prices of the accessories that are available for Quest 2. At a price of $25 and $45, respectively, the Elite Strap and the Elite Strap with Battery have both experienced a fifty percent reduction in price. In addition, the Fit Pack, which can assist you in finding a more comfortable fit, has been reduced by fifty percent to twenty dollars. Over the same time period, the official carrying case has been reduced from $45 to $20.
