Meta’s Quest 2 headset is about to get even cheaper

Meta is permanently cutting the price of its Quest 2 VR headset to $250 following the launch of the Quest 3, according to a Quest Blog update spotted by TechCrunch. The Quest 2 has been on sale at that price since Black Friday anyway, but the new retail price might spell even better deals for the previous-gen model.

“We knew we could do even more to make VR more affordable and bring even more people into the community… that’s why we’re permanently lowering prices on Quest 2 and its accessories, effective January 1,” the company wrote. To wit, the 128GB Quest 2 is now $250, while the 256GB model is $300. Meta is also dropping the prices for refurbished units to $230 and $270, respectively. Similar pricing can be found on Amazon.

Quest 2 accessories are also carrying lower prices, with the Elite Strap with battery receiving the biggest drop from $120 to $90. The regular Elite Strap is now $50, the carrying case has dropped to $45, the Active Pack is now $60 and the Quest 2 Fit Pack falls from $50 to $40.

The Quest 2 became one of the more popular VR headsets thanks to the low $300 launch price, but the buzz died down when Meta jacked the price to $400 in mid-2022. The Quest 3 was a big step forward with improved screens and lenses, a more compact design, faster performance, mixed reality cameras and more.

With hundreds of VR titles available — including Resident Evil 4, the new Roblox game and ever-popular Beat Saber — the Quest 2 is still a great entry into the world of VR, though. It’s now even more attractive at that price, and we might see it drop even lower via sales over the next year.
