I personally don't own a VR headset, though I've tried numerous ones. I don't know about anyone else, but I won't trust a thing from Facebook aka Meta.
I'm personally waiting on Valve's next rumored iteration. I will say that looking at this headset gives me more hope for VR in the future as it's getting more powerful, more user friendly, slimmer, etc. Glad to see these companies haven't just given up on VR.

Fun story: Facebook just decided my mom violated their policies because she was actually 13 years old. When this happened she was not able to prove her age and also she lost all her games and files from her Quest due to the accounts being tied together.
Good times.
Hopefully she didn't have a small business that completely depended on Facebook, or Twitter, or TikTok, as has happened so many times before.
These companies don't care. And there's 0 route to getting these things resolved as they've automated everything and rarely have anyone can help at all.
