The problem is that they all have a downside, there's not one that is good for everything so I keep waiting hoping for a new one that is.
They're all gonna have downsides, the perfect headset isn't going to happen. If it does happen, the cost will be astronomical. So you'll just end up waiting forever and will never know what it feels like to have Kawakita Saika sitting on your lap... well, kinda feel like... you don't actually feel anything but it sure looks like she is right there in front of you to the point where you will want to reach out and grope her... goddamit...
But ask anyone with a headset and they'll you that you will feel... something... when the girl closes in and 'kisses' you... well, not you, the camera... but somehow you will feel something... think its ASMR related, which is why kissing happens very often in VR JAV unlike normal JAV where its just silly for them to kiss the camera.
When they whisper 'ippai dashite kudasai' into your ear...
Back to topic. The VR industry is stagnating right now, with the Metaverse having flopped and thus Meta laying off quite a bit of staff including from their VR labs division. Pico, which is owned by Bytedance (TikTok) would be their main competitor but they also underwent a layoff that ended up cancelling the development of their Beat Saber clone that supposedly will also involve the usage of your legs.
This means there will be fewer headsets released. There was supposed to be a Quest 'Lite' this year, but that might be cancelled. Pico supposedly cancelled most of their releases this year in order to make a premium model that can compete with Apple's shiny new overpriced toy. Hah... good luck with that.
I'm not sure if there's anything to be particularly excited about this year when it comes to upcoming headset models. So I would say if you can afford to buy one and you really want to watch VR JAV, than now is as good a time as any - but only if you can afford it. Global economic outlook kinda crap right now.
There needs to be some sort of VR revolution to drive up the sales of headsets in order to see a significant mprovement in the market. As of right now, anyone who buys a VR headset is doing so just for porn. Anyone who tells you otherwise has his pants on fire or something. Porn usually drives tech development but the VR segment is too niche for now.
Apple is trying get the ball rolling, but they are aiming for the upmarket segment with both Meta and Pico eyeing them and looking to develop a competing model should they succeed. That won't matter to use JAV watchers. You have to be crazy rich to buy into that segment just to watch VR porn.
