    The main reason for that has to be the price factor I feel like, although I could be overlooking another reason.

    I will never buy a product produced by Meta, so whenever I do decide to pony up for a headset, it will most likely be a Valve product.

      Its more than pure price, the quest 3 is also higher resolution, stand alone, pancake lenses, wireless…

      I have a quest 3, and absolutely love mine, use it both for wireless pcvr and standalone gaming.

        Damn, that’s definitely a reason to use it over Valves headset. I wonder if their next one will include some of these features.

          Based on the various patents & Steam update code “leaks”, the Deckard does potentially have all of those features, and more. Assuming it all makes it into the final product of course, which could also render it a very expensive enthusiast piece of equipment most likely.
