Oh absolutely wait like two weeks and get on the list for a Steam Frame. It actually runs arch Linux and Steam says “it’s your computer, you can do what you want with it” unlike Meta and the Quest. I’m excited to do Kicad in mine.


You can do what you want with your quest too. It's android and you can sideload whatever you want.

I was thinking of getting the steam frame but considering the component crisis it'll probably be well above €1000 and that's a non-starter for me. I'll just stick with my quest 3 which has about the same level of specs. But was only 450€ for me on prime day.

If it were a significant bump in resolution over the quest (like the vision pro or the galaxy XR) I would have done it. But it's not.


Thanks, that looks tempting! Shame about the monochrome camera, but maybe I can use an add-on camera to colour in the world.
