Valve accidentally released eight videos about their upcoming Steam Frame VR headset, providing detailed instructions on how to wear it, fit it properly, and use its features.

Why it matters

The videos provide valuable information for users who will be purchasing the Steam Frame, especially those unfamiliar with VR headsets.

Valve released videos showing how to wear their new VR headset, fit it properly, and use its features. It's like getting a tutorial on putting on your favorite pair of glasses.

Analysis

{"#fitting_the_headset":"The basic fit video shows people wearing the Steam Frame over their mouths or as a purse. The IPD adjustment wheel and ergonomic accessories like hand straps are also demonstrated in detail.","#sign_in_process":"One of the most interesting videos is the sign-in process, which involves scanning a QR code with your phone camera focused on one lens of the headset. This video is particularly tongue-in-cheek, showcasing an optional, lowkey ridiculous process.","#accessories_and_modularity":"The Steam Frame includes hand straps for controllers and an extended light blocker for players with small noses. The face gasket and eye spacer attach to the headset with magnets for easy modularity."}

Key points

  • Eight leaked Valve Steam Frame videos provide detailed instructions on how to wear and use the headset
  • The sign-in process involves scanning a QR code with your phone camera focused on one lens of the headset
  • The Steam Frame includes hand straps for controllers, an extended light blocker, and other ergonomic accessories
The Upside

The Steam Frame could be a hit with gamers who are looking for an immersive VR experience, especially if the price is reasonable once the RAM shortage eases.

The Downside

If the high price point and ongoing RAM shortages prevent many from purchasing it, the Steam Frame might not meet its full potential as a gaming accessory.
