    Google I/O 2026: The Smart Glasses Reveals Everyone's Waiting For
    History is repeating itself. Just like they did with the Quest 2, Meta has officially raised the price of the Quest 3 in 2026. With regional hikes hitting Canada, Australia, and parts of Europe, the "value king" of VR is suddenly a much more expensive investment... ► The BOOX e-ink tablet I use every morning: https://shop.boox.com/?ref=vxakpuef In this video, we’re looking at why Meta is pulling from their old playbook and what it means for you. Is a 20% price increase on 2-year-old hardware justifiable, or is this the moment to finally look at the competition? We're weighing the Quest 3 against the upcoming Valve "Steam Frame" and the current PSVR 2 value to see if "waiting" is actually your best move this time around. Is this corporate strategy or a sign that the VR market is shifting? Let’s get into it.
