The Frame will probably cost more because it won’t be subsidized by surveillance capitalism. I’d rather pay more and actually own my hardware instead of paying a down payment in cash to take possession of a device Meta still owns, and then pay with my data indefinitely afterwards.

I'm ok with paying more. I'll never use a headset where I have to be tethered to a machine so anything like valve index is a no. I had some success with steam vr and quest 2 over wireless a few years ago, but it was never stable. I just want to put on my headset and start exercising without doing tech support.
