Not two weeks after [calling out Valve] (https://www.reddit.com/r/virtualreality/comments/1ognlf1/with_the_release_of_samsung_galaxy_xr_shouldnt/) they responded with their lineup
But I'm calling out Valve again for this "early 2026" bullshit. Haven't we learned anything from the biggest tech company aka Apple in the last 20 years?? You announce something, you better be ready to ship it within two weeks. I'm an Android guy thru and thru but one of the things I've always admired about them is when they say "today we're announcing the new product...and it's available to pre-order right now and shipping starts in two weeks" f*ck yeah strike while the iron is hot
Even if Valve couldn't have it ready like Apple, the "early 2026" feels like a cop out. We've had enough ambiguous dates from Rockstar with GTA6.
And yes we all feel like this device could've been more up to date. Personally, I don't like that there will be a Quest 4 at some point and now Meta knows what Valve's lineup looks like, likely for the next five years. Steam Frame was designed to complete with the Quest 3 lineup, and I wish they'd designed it to compete with Quest 4 instead. Basically, wish it were more future proof. Still, since it's what we got, I think it's manageable enough and we can make do here. If they'd just let us get our hands on it already.
