If you want to get an Oculus Quest 2 act fast as its price is about to go way up

Analysis: Bring back the 64GB Oculus Quest 2

While the Quest 2 is going to become more expensive starting next month, it’s actually just going back up to the price it originally was, at least in the US and UK – for those of you in Australia it’s going to be a whole AU$10 cheaper than it was at launch. When the Quest 2 first launched you couldn’t buy a 256GB version of the console. Instead, the 128GB model was the more expensive option at $399 / £399 / AU$639, with a cheaper 64GB headset available for $299 / £299 / AU$479. Thatwhen Meta decided to scrap the 64GB model, reduce the price of the 128GB one, and brought in a new 256GB version.

However, the big issue with Meta reverting to its original pricing is that there’s now no $299 / £299 / AU$479 Quest 2 – and that’s a problem. Sure, the Quest 2’s $399 / £399 / AU$639 price still makes it a fair bit cheaper than rivals in the VR market ,but it’s nevertheless a tough pill to swallow. That’s especially true when you look at gaming as a whole.
