Sale Oculus Quest 2 temporarily halted due to skin irritation complaints – Gaming – News

Facebook is temporarily suspending sales of the Oculus Quest 2 due to an issue with its foam face mask that is causing skin irritation for some customers. From August 24, the headset will be available again with a silicone cover and with standard 128GB of storage space.

Starting August 24, the basic versions of the Oculus Quest 2 headsets will come with 128GB of storage instead of the current 64GB and at the same price. The box of the headset will therefore contain a silicone cover that comes over the foam rubber attachment that comes into contact with the face. That attachment caused according to Facebook skin irritation in some customers. According to Facebook, the skin complaints first saw the light of day in December of last year.

According to Facebook, it concerns a small number of customers who experienced skin irritation. However, this was apparently enough to temporarily stop international sales so that the silicone covers can be added to all packaging of the Oculus Quest 2. Current Oculus Quest 2 and Quest 2 Fit Pack users can online request the silicone covers.
