The Virtual Reality “Lag” is Over

Since the release of the first virtual reality headsets, naysayers have been spouting rumors that VR and AR are just not taking off. However, if you look at recent statistics, that’s just not true and the numbers don’t lie. Finally, in 2018, VR sales outpaced the expectations. The sales of devices were forecast to produce $3.3 billion in revenue, but they did $3.6 billion just to show those naysayers that VR is here to stay and growing. Not only that, but it’s a 30% increase in revenue from the previous year, showing a more than healthy growth in this side of the industry.

Untethered headsets definitely showed more strongly than tethered ones. Clearly people want the freedom of an all-in-one device. The Sony Playstation VR sold the most units during the holiday season with 700,000 sold. Next was Oculus Go at 500,000. The tethered headsets that are popular – Oculus Rift and HTC Vive were closer to 130,000. This shows that people really want the untethered all in one devices that can give you an amazing experience, no cords required.

All of this data comes together to prove to us that virtual reality porn is here to stay, and that there isn’t any kind of virtual reality “lag” in the industry. Don’t let the naysayers fool you – VR is having its moment in the sun and it’s bound to be longer than the 15 minutes of fame that some technology trends have. It’s going to be a new way to interact with each other and the world that could revolutionize the way we do things on an everyday basis.
