Save $70 and get two free games when you grab the 256GB model of the Meta Quest VR headset from Meta's site. It has a 1832 x 1920 per eye resolution along with an 89 degree field of view. It offers a comfortable and compact design as well as good quality motion tracking and decent value for money. The two games included are GOLF+ and Space Pirate Trainer DX. 

The $70 saving is more than handy and it helps to make the immersive world of virtual reality more affordable. But, what specs does can this headset boast to make it worth investing in? 

Well, key specs include an 89 degree field of view along with 1832 x 1920 per eye resolution. 256GB of storage and refresh rates of 60, 72, 90 Hz also feature. It comes with controllers too and as we found out in our review, the motion tracking is great, and so are the graphics. It works as a standalone VR headset as well as when connected to a PC too. 

Its library is extensive too, with plenty of Meta-native titles along with SteamVR and PCVR titles available too. If this wasn't enough, you get two free games with your purchase too - GOLF+ and Space Pirate Trainer DX.

Overall, this is pretty good value, especially when you consider that you only pay a little more for twice the storage and two free games. The Meta Quest 2 offers good graphics, great motion tracking, is comfortable to wear and works well as both a standalone VR headset and a PCVR headset. With the discount and freebies on offer, this is definitely worth checking out.
