This seems crazy to me: HTC has always been blamed for its high prices (well, $1400 for the Vive Pro was a bit too much…) but the Vive Focus Plus , that is an enterprise device, costs $799… $200 less than the Business Quest! Unless they will release Half Life 3 , of course. The Business Oculus Go, 64 GB edition, costs $599.

That gives users more than enough space to walk, run, and even sprint while in VR.
