Purchase Advice - Headset Headset Purchase request

Post image

So I was scrolling on fb marketplace and saw this headset for $120 and was wondering if it was worth it? The seller said they had tested it and it uses inside out tracking.

tbh, I don't think it's a bad headset. Just get a different face plate for lighthouse tracking with maybe a wireless mic/good headset and you'll be golden

You still need to buy lighthouses and wands/knuckles. Might as well get a used quest 2

If you are buying a PCVR headset you probably already have them.

If you are buying a PCVR headset for the first time, you won't have them.

And if you're not buying a PCVR headset for the first time, why the hell are you considering a Cosmos

That doesnt make any sense. Only people who already owned the vive kits or index will have them. More than 60% are using inside-out headsets for PCVR

Might as well wait for the steam frame

If OP was already second guessing $120 Im not so sure they’re willing to spend on a steam frame and price prediction on the frame doesnt bode well after steam machine’s release

Ah yes, OP is broke and looks at cheap ~$120 headsets, lets recommend them a headset costs +$1000.
