It is not a low number at all! For comparison, the PS5 has sold 10M units worldwide in the same time.

- azinman2 5y agoBut it's not a PS5 competitor. It's supposed to be a competitor to computers + smartphones (or at least that's the hype.. the 'next big thing'). These numbers are tiny for such hype.
- riffraff 5y agoWasn't the PS5 severely limited in availability? If so, this doesn't seem the right comparison.
- jsnell 5y agoSo was the Quest 2 before the holidays. Look, the PS5 was the fastest selling games console in history. The Quest 2 being in the same ball park is really good. Anyone who thinks these sales are disappointingly low just didn't have realistic expectations.
- filoleg 5y agoSo was Oculus Quest. It was extremely difficult to find one in stock, even when Oculus Quest 2 came out. And getting Oculus Quest 2 was pretty much impossible for the first 3-4 months after the release last year (that I tracked). Not sure how difficult it is now, because I haven't checked. But for the first 3-4 months, it was definitely the same situation, with people stalking out restocks at local best buys and walmarts to get one.
