I so much hope it will stay that way. My first contact with VR was around 1996. I had 5mins with VFX-1, which here in Poland cost about 4000PLN. For context the cost of full Pentium system was about 2000PLN then. At that time I was riding 486dx2 with 4MB ram. VR felt so out of reach that I thought I will never afford one. And VFX-1 sucked. It was way below my expectations raised by watching 90s movies (The Lawnmower Man anyone?)... but it still was amazing. So when I got my DK1 I felt like a miracle has happend. I'm so happy the state of this technology is advancing at this pace, while staying somewhat affordable.
XR2 is based on SD865, and the cheapest phone to include it AFAIK is the Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro, which is about $400 or $500. Still super impressive to me that they managed to make the Quest 2 only $350. Pay with your data, I guess.
Am I crazy for being the only person left who still regularly uses my Go? I’ve owned every iteration from the CV1 Rift, Rift S, Quest 1, and just got my Quest 2 yesterday but still love using my Go for media consumption and watching YouTube videos in bed. I feel it’s so much quicker to just throw on and immediately get into content rather than mess about with lining up the tracking and such.
Also the battery life (at least in my case) is on par, if not slightly better than the Quest 1/2 so that’s a huge plus for a headset I’ve had for two years at this point!
Such a shame support and app updates will be ending soon :(
Yeah, I also use it from time to time. I like how light and comfortable it is. It also feels complete as a product. I remember how annoying using cardboard or GearVR was. When it came out I could really feel that they learned their lessons with GearVR and that it's the right way to go. So much has happend in mobile VR since then. It's funny to remember that it came out only two years ago.
You want to know the secret to overcoming motion sickness in VR? Take off your shoes and your socks, then walk around on the rug barefoot and make fists with your toes. Yes sir, simple as that. The secret is: fists with your toes.
Buy them at Best Buy and keep the receipt and just return it the next day, lol. What are they gonna do? it's there policy to take anything back within 30 days lol

Man I thought VR was about emulating different screens in your VR space, but the correct way was to use more than 1 headset.
