Everyone's been talking about the fantastic Oculus Quest 2 Black Friday deal but heads up, HP is countering with a Cyber Monday deal of its own. HP is taking $200 (33%) off its recently updated HP Reverb G2 VR headset, starting Cyber Weekend and hopefully lasting through Cyber Week. At this price it takes one of the Oculus Quest 2's biggest trump cards off the table: its much lower price point.
Cyber Monday Deal: $200 Off the HP Reverb G2 VR Headset, Now Only $399
Comparing the HP Reverb G2 to the Oculus Quest 2 isn't really apples to apples since the Quest 2 is usually much less expensive and has total wireless capability. However, with one of these differences mostly removed, it makes more sense to see what you get get with the HP Reverb G2 that you don't get with the Quest. The Reverb G2 has a higher resolution display that uses two screens (one per eye) instead of a single screen that the Quest 2 uses. It also has a far more comfortable padded headstrap and superior on-ear speakers that mimics those found on the much more expensive Valve Index. The recent update improves the tracking on the Reverb G2's controllers as well. Another benefit of the HP Reverb G2: you don't have to log in with your Facebook account.
Black Friday Deal: Oculus Quest 2 VR Headset with Bonus $50 Amazon Credit
If you were to get the Quest 2 128GB model, you're still saving $100 compared to the Reverb G2 as well as scoringa bonus $50 Amazon credit. If you only plan to play games wirelessly, then there's no reason to look at any other VR headset; the Quest 2 is king in this department. However, if you plan on playing the Quest 2 tethered, the additional cost to make this happen makes the choice less obvious. That said, no other headset gives you such an elegant means of choose either tethered or wireless in a single device.
