I got a Quest Pro open box on Ebay, after the Steam Frame was fully revealed and I was disappointed by the price. This thread is a kinda review of the headset with comparisons to the Oculus Quest and Meta Quest 3, both headsets i've used extensively, with some time in the Oculus Quest 2.

seeing someone actually buying a quest pro is very interesting as that headset fully disappeared from my memory lmao but yeah seemingly glad you like it though (:

I think its objectively the best VR headset experience without buying accessories primarily bc of its comfort. The head strap does share a LOT in common with the Steam Frame as far as I know.

First and foremost, I paid just under $600 for the Quest Pro, which while I am aware its more than a 3 which has better specs, you'll see why I made this particular choice as I explain further.

My main interest in the Steam Frame was how it was sold as the user's computer and you could technically install other OSes on it. Not that you really COULD just yet, but still. I still do have interest in such a device, but the price didn't justify what I actually do with VR headsets...

I actually primarily stream from my PC to the headset to play VR, both wired and wirelessly, though I prioritize wireless. The Steam Frame offered a dongle that highly intrigued me as it offers likely the best wireless communications for VR. A lot of people complain about-

wireless VR on their WIFI being slow. Heres a cool tip. If you have two WIFI adapters in your PC or are connected via ethernet and have Wifi you aren't using. Make a mobile hotspot on your system. It creates a direct connection between your system and the headset and it heavily improved wireless.
