I'll be watching this product closely as I love the idea of wire-free VR, but would not give Facebook (owner of Oculus) my money if my life depended on it and the other PC VR headsets still only support Microsoft Windows-based PCs (as opposed to supporting Apple macOS and Linux-based PCs)...

Of course, I'd much rather Sony did a wire-free version of my PlayStation VR headset - PlayStation VR has LOADS of high-quality content!

On a side note, I found it to discover that the support pages for the existing Vive Focus (i.e. not the Vive Focus Plus) seem to suggest that this runs Android...

The same support pages also state that games/applications can also be side-loaded onto removable storage, though it implies that this is in reference to custom content in-house (the existing Vive Focus is aimed at commercial and industrial customers, at least in Australia anyway).

Been looking at getting a standalone vr set, this looks great but definitely doing some more research before I decide.
