Valve Deckard VR Headset described as “pretty amazing” …


While Google is upset around Android XR, Meta continues its Meta Quest 3 -Vorstacht position, and Apple apparently runs his vision pro -pregnancy plans for Bono, Valve worked quietly in the background on the next headset -and it is already called “pretty amazing”.

According to Stan Larroque – the founder of Lynx, who said the inventive Lynx R1 headset, which I showed in 2023, said on social media that “the design of Valve Next HMD is pretty amazing!”

He did not get written to what Deckard makes particularly neat and said that he would be “sour” if someone had leaked details about Lynx 'next XR device, but at least he was blowing why he knows the valve device.

In a post-observation contribution, he said: “The HMD-Making world is so small that we all share the same suppliers for some components.”

While leaks should be taken with a pinch of salt, the valve, if the valve design details with suppliers and procurement of parts for Deckard exercises, will be that the device approaches (or already in production) and that an official unveiling could approach.

This is supported by the April claims that Valve VR -Headset has received parts and machines to potentially produce a kind of headset in the United States. Another sign that Deckard is almost ready to fall.

If this is the case, other leaks have given us some details that Larroque does not reveal.

For example, a valve decoration from concept was an independent design (instead of bound) and reported reported 2K -LCD panels for the display setup and was driven by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 -the same chipset as the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra (via Upload VR).

This chipset would be new than the Snapdragon XR 2 Gen 2 in other modern headsets such as the Meta Quest 3, although it is not a dedicated XR chipset. So it is likely that another processor will appear in the final deckard design (maybe an XR2 gen 3).

The headset also seems to be based on controllers (code names Roy), which are very similar to the Hodels of Meta Quest 3 (via UploadVR).

Just expect it to be expensive. A rumored bundle for the new Valve Deckard VR Headset allegedly costs 1,200 US dollars, which includes some games and two controllers.

Hopefully Valve will not keep us in the dark over Deckard – maybe the Android XR hype is waiting for Google I/O to die before stealing the ramp light – but we have to wait and see.
