Hi guys, wasn't sure which section to put this so decided this one may be most suitable

My favourite band is doing a VR concert using the AMAZEVR platform very shortly and I would love to enjoy it

I've never really dabbled with VR headsets and to be perfectly honest it's not something I want to get heavily involved with

Now I see some headsets cost hundreds, some thousands and then I see some on the likes of Ali that are cheap as chips

Budget is very tight just now but I was wondering what would be a decent VR headset that would get the job done? I doubt I'll be gaming on it or anything but like the idea of exploring metaverse at some point in the future

As for hardware... I have a couple of Linux based PC's and a Samsung Galaxy Fold 4 (Android 13 or 14 i think)

Thanks in advance.

Meta Quest or the Oculus are quite good.

Quest 2 was awesome... For a while! The novelty does wear off but is a cheaper option not to use your phone? Can you still buy those headset things they sit in? I tried that a few years ago and for what you want I'd say look into them!

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
