Oculus Quest 2 VR headset halted sales due to complaints of skin irritation
Facebook has temporarily halted sales of the Oculus Quest 2 VR headset. About this company reported on the Oculus website.
To solve the problem, Facebook plans to add a special layer of silicone to the coating. Thus, it will reduce the risk of skin irritation. Any affected Oculus Quest 2 owner can get a silicone liner. The creators of the headset claim that it will definitely help.
The problem turned out to be huge. A total of 5,716 messages were sent to the company. Some people after skin irritation have required medical attention. At the time of the cessation of sales, 4.2 million units had been sold in the United States and Canada.
Facebook plans to resume sales of the VR headset on August 24. From this date, all models will receive a silicone liner. Also on this day, sales of new devices will be opened, the memory capacity of which will be 128 gigabytes instead of 64 gigabytes.
