Black Friday always marks the best deal of the season for VR headsets, and this year is no different. Here’s the best HTC Vive Black Friday deals for 2024.

VIVE Focus Vision

The best HTC Vive Focus Vision Black Friday sale we’ve seen so far is $1,000 from Amazon. This deal includes the headset, controllers, Vive Wired Streaming Kit (normally $150 alone), three bundle games (XRWorkout, Capsule Critters, and TheBlue), and your choice between one of two additional game packs:

  • PC VR Wild Pack (PC VR games): Metro Awakening, Arizona Sunshine 2, Bootstrap Island, and Breachers.
  • MR Fun Pack (standalone games): Puzzling Places, Rezzil Player, Toy Trains, Yuki, and Figmin XR.

Vive Focus Vision is normally $1,000, but this Black Friday deal uniquely includes the Vive Wired Streaming Kit (for streaming PC VR games from a gaming PC), and your choice between the two game bundles, which include some solid picks.

Note: Most of the value in this deal is coming from the inclusion of the free Vive Wired Streaming Kit (normally $150). This allows the headset to plug into a gaming PC to play PC VR games. If you don’t plan to use this headset for PC VR gaming, then that doesn’t add any value for you (unless you plan to resell the Streaming Kit). The included game choices are a nice bonus but not the crux of this sale.

VIVE XR Elite

The best HTC Vive XR Elite Black Friday sale we’ve seen so far is $800 from Amazon. This deal includes the ‘Deluxe Pack’ with four extra accessories: an improved facepad, a mixed reality facepad (to give you open peripheral vision), a deluxe strap (for a more comfortable fit), and temple clips to more securely attach the headset’s battery pack for intense gaming.

If you’re looking for the headset itself (if you already have controllers and tracking beacons), the best deal we’ve seen so far is $500 from Amazon. The headset itself is normally priced between $660 and $700, so this is a $160–$200 discount.

    Where are the meta fanbois screaming about HTC Vive Pro Focus using the 'out dated' fresnel lenses? Nothing.

    But when PSVR2 came out and it has fresnel, the fanbois were crying about how it was last gen. Typical fanbois silence.

    When I mentioned it about Meta Quest 3S having Fresnel, they screamed but but but the price. Now that HTC Vive Pro Focus is $1k, why no complaints at all? Because meta fanbois simply HATE Sony and the PSVR2 so they don't know how to rationally and reasonably criticise. They just have irrational hate.

      Fresnel lenses are shit no matter what device they're in

      • Michael Speth

        So you saying Quest 2 and Quest 3S are shit?

        • brandon9271

          They’d be a lot better if the lenses weren’t shit

            Have you ever used an OLED headset where the games are programmed to use true blacks?

            It is true if you pair LCD garbage displays like the quest2/3s with fresnel bc there is no reason at this point not to use pancake if ur going with the inferior LCD panels.

            However, if u choose OLED, than you must use fresnel.

            Micro-oleds are simply too expensive and in short supply to use with pancake at this time.
