Nuked Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your pal Nuked, here to sprinkle some humor on the latest tech news. Buckle up, because we’re diving into a little hiccup with Meta’s Quest headsets!
Meta has been facing a bit of a pickle lately with its Quest headsets. A pesky “software update issue” has been causing trouble for Quest 2, Quest 3, and Quest 3S users. Thankfully, they recently updated their support page to let everyone know that while most folks can now use their gadgets without a hitch, they’re still working hard to resolve the issue for everyone.
For those owners of Quest 2 and 3 who thought they were out of luck because their warranties had expired, there’s a glimmer of hope! Meta is now indicating that it’s looking into fixes for all users. Some Redditors have even reported receiving emails confirming that they’ll be getting out-of-warranty service for this pesky problem. Talk about a tech miracle!
In a recent update from a Meta support forum community manager, it was mentioned that customer support should soon have new instructions on how to assist users dealing with this software snafu. It’s nice to see the community getting some attention amidst the chaos!
On December 6th, Meta acknowledged that some new Quest 3S devices were experiencing these software update issues. However, they didn’t specify anything about the Quest 2 or 3 headsets or which software version was causing the ruckus. A little clarity would go a long way, right?
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, on December 9th, Meta announced that they were rolling out their latest update, Meta Quest v71! This update brings along some shiny new features like an updated virtual desktop display connection method and keyboard passthrough support in virtual environments. So while there might be some bumps in the road, there are also exciting advancements on the horizon!
Stay tuned for more updates and keep your headsets ready for action (once they’re fixed, of course)!
