Facebook (Oculus Rift) and HTC (Vive) had growing pains at launch, whether slower than expected shipping or order cancellations. Oculus launched without Touch controllers, which eventually cost $199 instead of being bundled (i.e. non-PC full system costs hit $798 — the same as HTC Vive).

But VR and AR are still two very different concepts, with defining characteristics that distinguish one from the other.  WHAT IS VIRTUAL REALITY ? VR headsets completely take over your vision to give you the impression that you're somewhere else . The PlayStation VR2, the Meta Quest 2, the Valve Index, and other headsets are opaque, blocking out your surrounding when you wear them, if your them on whe...
