""We're making this change because the cost of building high-performance VR hardware has risen significantly. The global surge in the price of critical components - specifically memory chips - is impacting almost every category of consumer electronics, including VR.""
""To keep delivering the quality of hardware, software, and support you expect from the Quest platform, we need to adjust our pricing.""
""Updated pricing will also apply to Meta Quest refurbished units, but all Meta Quest accessories will stay at their current prices.""
""Meta is the latest tech company to raise hardware prices in response to the RAM shortage, joining peers like Samsung, Microsoft, and Sony.""
Meta is raising the prices of its virtual reality headsets effective April 19, with the Meta Quest 3S (128GB) and (256GB) increasing by $50, and the Meta Quest 3 by $100. The company cites significant rises in the cost of building high-performance VR hardware, particularly due to a global surge in memory chip prices. Updated pricing will also apply to refurbished units, while accessories will remain at current prices. Meta joins other tech companies in raising hardware prices amid a RAM shortage.
