But also one of the worst options in terms of privacy.

I don't care how cheap it is or how amazing it allegedly is. I clawed my identity back from Zuckerberg, and I don't intend to go back to that abusive relationship.

If that means I can't afford VR, then so be it.

500 would be the price for higher end WMR headsets. Most popular would be the HP Reverb

500 not even on sale. It often goes for $350 these days.

Honestly, it's a steal. The reverb G2 is really good, easily used with Valve Index controllers.

In the long run though, anyone currently interested should probably wait for Valves next release. Then you can decide if MS-lock is worth it, it can certainly be frustrating at times being locked to Windows.

yeah i only put 500 as its the MSRP, its actually lower than that. more of the point is, if someones claiming that 500$ is expensive because its a meta product, they weren't even intending to go into VR, as the HP Reverb, and what it sort of replaced before that, the Samsung Oddessey+, were sub 500 for a long time.
