    The biggest thing holding me back from getting one has been the console lock. I have a PS5 but would want to use it on PC more. I’ve thought about saving for an Index but know that the moment I buy one is the moment they announce Index 2

      I thought about this too in the last few days, but the index is pretty old now and I wish it had inside-out tracking.

        I got one last year and have no regrets about it. It’s still the best value overall for the money, with the wide FOV that’s better than most competitors’ headsets, and the best controllers around for VR. I wish it was wireless, but the cord is a minor hassle overall and allows me to make use of my powerful desktop GPU

        The Index’s lighthouse tracking was actually a selling point for me. My first VR experience was a Quest 2 and I was surprised at how often my hands lost tracking; playing Alyx and trying to grab ammo was incredibly frustrating.
