Meta raises Quest VR headset prices

Meta is increasing the prices of its Quest virtual reality headsets due to escalating memory chip costs, a trend seen across the tech industry. The 128GB Quest 3S will now cost $349.99, up $50, while the 256GB version rises to $449.99. The Quest 3 sees a significant $100 price jump to $599.99. Refurbished models are also affected by price hikes, with the Quest 3 now costing $549.99. This decision reflects the growing expense of manufacturing high-end VR hardware, impacting both new and pre-owned device costs for consumers.
