Valve's Steam Frame is here, and I've had one for a week. Standalone Half-Life: Alyx, a dedicated PC VR streaming dongle, a Linux desktop, and a $1,059 price tag. Here's everything I could test before launch. 👉 Check out our XR Hub with gear favorites here → https://casandchary.com/gear In this video, we unbox the Steam Frame and share our impressions after a week with Valve's new VR headset. We cover the Steam Frame price and reservation signups, comfort and the forehead mark, the LCD display and field of view, PC VR streaming with the wireless adapter and foveated streaming vs Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop, standalone performance including Half-Life: Alyx running without a PC, black and white passthrough vs the Arcturus RGB camera, the controllers with finger sensing, battery life, and everything else we could test in a week’s time. Worked hard on this. We hope you enjoy it!
