"Meta's Quest 2 VR Headset Now More Affordable with Permanent Price Reduction"

Meta Platforms, Inc has permanently reduced the price of its Quest 2 virtual reality headset following the launch of Quest 3. The 128GB model is now $249, and the 256GB model is $299, with various accessories also seeing price reductions. This move aims to make VR more accessible and boost sales, especially after the reluctance of customers to try on headsets in stores due to hygiene concerns during the pandemic. Despite a previous price increase in July 2022, the recent drop aligns with the Quest 3's release and Meta's strategy to expand its VR user base.
