Great news for VR enthusiasts! If you’ve been eyeing the Bigscreen Beyond, now might be the perfect time to snag one. This sleek and ultra-light PC VR headset, which made its debut late last year, is seeing its first-ever Black Friday deal. Starting this week, buyers will receive a bonus: a free Audio Strap with their purchase.
What’s notable about Bigscreen Beyond is its compact design. It harnesses the power of the SteamVR tracking ecosystem, eliminating the need for inside-out tracking sensors. This, along with its dual 2,560 × 2,560 micro-OLED displays, helps shave off some weight, thanks also to the implementation of space-efficient pancake lenses.
To give you an idea of just how lightweight it is: the headset itself tips the scales at a mere 127 grams, which is even lighter than its optional Audio Strap that weighs 160 grams.
From Black Friday through Cyber Monday (November 27th – December 2nd), each purchase of the Bigscreen Beyond, priced at $999, will include a complimentary Audio Strap, typically valued at $129.
This promo is available in a wide range of shipping regions including the US, UK, most parts of continental Europe, Ireland, Iceland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Japan. To claim your free Audio Strap, simply enter the promo code BLACKFRIDAY24 at checkout.
The Audio Strap itself is a handy upgrade. It replaces the standard fabric strap with a sturdier design that comfortably fits the top and back of your head, complete with an adjustable dial for a snug fit and built-in on-ear headphones.
But the burning question remains: is the Bigscreen Beyond worth it? In our comprehensive review, we lauded its personalized face pad, outstanding visuals, and its compact nature, which makes it ideal for extended use.
Initially, we felt the Bigscreen Beyond was somewhat “incomplete” without audio. But the inclusion of a free Audio Strap changes the game. If you’re tempted, check out our full review to assess if it meets your VR needs.
Remember, you’ll need to have SteamVR base stations, motion controllers, and a robust PC to run PC VR games optimally. Double-check your PC’s specs to ensure compatibility.
Stay tuned as we’ll be curating all the top Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals throughout the week, so don’t miss out!
