Announcing new Steam Hardware from Valve: Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame are coming in 2026. Just like Steam Deck, all three devices are optimized for Steam and designed for players to get even more out of their Steam library.
Where did you hear about the very bad screen door effect?
Regarding the price, as far as I know, Meta only sells the Quest 3 for $500 because they sell every unit at a significant loss. I don’t imagine that Valve can afford or wants to do that. I recall reading that any other company would need to sell the Quest 3 for 2-3x the price in order to make money. In other words, Meta has been “dumping” to dominate the market.
As far as Steam layer getting cloned onto the Quest 3, I think Meta would do everything in their power to keep that from happening.
Meta doesn’t sell Quest units for a loss anymore. That’s what the “recent” price hike was about, raising unit prices by $150-200.
The “really bad screen door effect” was mentioned by multiple reviewers.
