Virtual reality continues to be one of the most exciting frontiers when it comes to gaming, and tech in general. If you haven't yet given it a try, it might finally be time to jump in. The recently-released Meta Quest 3 may have new bells and whistles to enjoy, but the previous Meta Quest 2 model is also still very much worth exploring. Black Friday is the best time to grab one, especially with a deep price cut at Amazon.

As of Nov. 17, you can get the Meta Quest 2 (128GB) for just $249, at Amazon which is down from $299.99. Thta's a savings of $50.99, and 17% off. That brings the headset down to its lowest price yet as part of Amazon's Black Friday deals.

For anyone looking to dabble in VR without spending a fortune, the Meta Quest 2 is the perfect choice. You don't need a souped-up PC or smartphone to experience some of the coolest VR games out there, which makes it an easy sell for many.

The Meta Quest 2 comes with everything you need to jump into titles like Beat Saber as soon as it's out of the box or watch your favorite movies and TV shows on a large, personal screen. But it doesn't skimp on quality. It still delivers 20 pixels per degree visuals and tracking capabilities that make it feel like you're really slashing through digital blocks, shooting zombies, or becoming Alyx Vance of Half-Life fame.

For the price, it doesn't get much better than this. If you don't need the advanced features of the Meta Quest 2 and cash is at a premium, this is the VR headset you should add to your list.
