  1. #Meta is raising #prices for #Quest3 and #Quest3S #headsets due to a global surge in #memory chip costs. The price increases, effective April 19th, are $50 for the 128GB and 256GB Quest 3S variants, and $100 for the 512GB Quest 3. Despite the price hikes, Meta remains committed to investing in VR and has a roadmap for new hardware and experiences. roadtovr.com/meta-raises-quest #tech #media #news

  2. Ich habe dieses Jahr ungefähr 700 Euro für #Headsets ausgegeben. Angefangen hat alles mit der Idee, dass ein gutes #Bluetooth-Headset doch wohl für hochwertige #Meetings unter #Linux, #Windows, #Android, #Teams und Co. reichen müsste – Spoiler: tat es nicht. Das #Bose-Headset ist am Handy großartig, am Laptop aber leider ziemlich unbrauchbar.

    Also kam fürs #Homeoffice ein #DECT-Headset von #Yealink dazu. Mit Basisstation, stabil, zuverlässig – eigentlich genau das, was ich gesucht habe. Blöd nur: Eine Basisstation heißt auch, dass man fürs #Büro ein zweites braucht. Also habe ich jetzt zwei davon. Die hat die Firma bezahlt. Zweimal das gleiche, jeweils mit ANC und Mikrophonen die Hintergrundgeräusche aktiv rausfiltern.

    Und weil ich schon lange ein #OpenEar-Headset fürs Spazierengehen und #Fahrradfahren wollte, ist danach noch ein #Shokz dazugekommen.

    Fazit: Jetzt bin ich zufrieden. Und ich habe gelernt, dass man am PC offenbar wirklich ein dediziertes #Headset nur dafür braucht – alles andere ist Kompromiss. 😉🎧
  3. CNET's audio expert just dropped their top picks for WFH headsets in 2025. Apparently, finding a headset that doesn't make you sound like you're broadcasting from a tin can is still a challenge.

    What's your go-to gear for crystal-clear calls (or just surviving another Zoom meeting)?
