Vive Flow is a 6DOF headset that works with your Android phone as a 3DOF controller (hands tracking is coming in the future). HTC advertises it as a headset for relaxation and productivity because it wants to position it as a different product than a gaming machine like Oculus Quest 2. Image by Magic Leap).

Rumors hint to Oculus discontinuing the current Quest and selling the new one at $299 and $399. The Facebook Connect is close and we all expect that during that conference Oculus is finally going to announce the new Oculus Quest. Facebook halts the sale of Quest in Germany. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Facebook has started today enforcing the “Facebook login” rule , asking Oculus users to merge their Facebook and Oculus accounts. VR people think that this may mean that Facebook may have to remove its mandatory Facebook login, also because other countries (like Germany) are raising similar concerns.

One of the major complains are in the controllers, whose thumbsticks do not “click” when the stick is not in upright position (and some assistance guy from Valve even defined it as a feature, lol). If you are in Germany in August, instead, you could attend the Gamescom. Oculus Summer Sale has arrived!
