Didn’t get the VR headset you were hoping to get this Christmas? Or decided you want to start 2024 off right by going on some VR adventures? Well, you’re in luck as the Oculus Quest 2 – Meta’s excellent standalone VR device – is $50/£50-off right now as part of this year’s after-Christmas sales.
This means that you can get the 128GB model for $249.99 at Target – instead of $299.99 – or, for those of you in the UK, you can get the same Quest 2 version from Currys for £249.99. The same deal is also live at other retailers like Amazon and Walmart.
Unfortunately, these savings aren’t quite as good as the best deals from Black Friday – which also net you cash back or a gift card worth $50/£50 – but it’s nevertheless a great saving.
Today’s best Oculus Quest 2 deals
The Oculus Quest 2 is a solid VR gadget but honestly, I think you should get a Meta Quest 3 instead. Even if it isn’t discounted right now.
There are reasons to still go for the Oculus Quest 2. It’s a lot cheaper which is excellent for people on a tight budget, for those who aren’t sure they’ll use VR all that much, or if you’re getting the headset for someone who’s rough with their toys. But in general the Quest 3 is just better. A lot better.
The graphics are a massive leap forward, the Quest 3’s mixed reality is great, and the gadget feels comfier to wear too. You’ll even get a free copy of one of the best VR games ever: Asgard’s Wrath 2. If you can afford it get the Quest 3 (and use our Quest 3 guide for newbies to get off to a great start).
