Facebook paused sales of its best-selling Oculus Quest 2 for much of August as it addressed an issue with the headset\u2019s removable foam facial interface irritating the skin of some users<\/a>. Once the issue was successfully addressed \u2013 Quest 2 users can receive a silicone cover to protect their skin during use \u2013 the world\u2019s leading VR corporate evangelist had something else to announce: an upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oculus also took the opportunity to raise the specs of the entry-level Quest 2, boosting internal storage from 64GB to 128GB<\/a>. With the 64GB Quest 2 being phased out and replaced with the 128GB model while keeping the same accessible $299 price, this effectively bolsters the whole Quest 2 line and paves the way for a Quest 2 Pro (or similar high-end upgrade) in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Arriving with a silicone covering for the aforementioned foam facial interface designed to address known issues, the new 128GB base model Quest 2 offers one of the strongest purchasing opportunities<\/a> for anyone either jumping into virtual reality for the first time or aiming to increase their hardware power and advance their virtual experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Facebook paused sales of its best-selling Oculus Quest 2 for much of August as it addressed an issue with the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":1058,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1052","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-technology"],"yoast_head":"\n
