Replacing VR Set

[ZE]

Good day to all,
Looking to replace my old Oculus Lenovo RIFT S VR Set, since if having so frequently disconnected with the system issue. Asking for your experiences and suggestion for new ones...
Thanks in advance,

ZE, the most common VR today is Quest 3.  You will most likely have to buy optional equipment for extended use time and or comfort.

More expensive is the Pimax Crystal light.  Glass lenses, poor audio but better clarity.  Has been know to  have QC issues at times.  Look at the below post on AH.

I have not heard of anyone on AH using the PC PSVR2 by Playstation.  You have to buy a separate PC adaptor, I think.  Better color but falls short of the quest 3 and Pimax in clarity.

All of these will be an upgrade to the Rift S.

I was getting ready to buy a new VR as well but a couple skin cancer removal on my head has postponed that for a couple of weeks.

Quest 3 is going on sale.  Pimax has a couple of bundled packages.  Good time to buy during black Friday sales

My vote is the Quest 3, it has pancake lenses which make it more compact and has a wider field of view. If you're budget constrained the 3S is a good choice.

I would recommend getting the "KIWI design Link Cable with Charging" with either headset as it keeps the headset charged while playing.

Seems to be two threads going on the same subject so I'l put this here to in case it helps:

From what I've seen the "upgrades" from the quest 2 to the 3 don't affect how it looks in sims. Resolution and lenses are the same from what I've read. That said I got a used quest 2 without controllers on ebay that works fine for $50.

If it was me, I would either buy a used quest 2 for $50 or I'd buy the Crystal light. The base model is only $100 more then the Quest 3 and the specs are much better. Just be aware that the $599 version doesn't come with the controllers. (which I don't use so I don't care)
