## Key points

- Steam Frame is light and comfortable.
- PC gaming depends on wireless streaming.
- Its price exceeds $1,000 or £800.

## Summary

The reviewer finds Valve’s Steam Frame promising as a lightweight, cable-free VR headset, but says its lack of a wired PC connection limits its appeal. That trade-off matters as Valve enters a struggling VR market, where other major companies are scaling back or shifting focus.

The headset weighs 440g and streams PC games over a dedicated wireless dongle, while also working as a standalone device. The reviewer praises its reflective finish, adjustable headband and comfort during extended use, but argues that a DisplayPort option would have made it more versatile. Its reported price is above $1,000 or £800, amid higher RAM and storage costs.
