Beginning on November 24th, HTC will give $100 off purchases of the Vive system, while stocks last. Software deals during the Black Friday weekend will also be available through HTC’s own VR app store, Viveport.
The first consumer VR-infused holiday season is almost upon us, and no doubt VR headsets will be extremely hot gift items. It’s the most wonderful time of the year (so they say), and HTC is giving a modest but notable $100 (12.5%) discount on the Vive, as is now the tradition on Black Friday. That means you’ll be able to nab the Vive for $700 instead of the usual $800. Looking for a Rift deal? See here.
When the time comes, you should find the deail online or at retail, including Microsoft Stores, Amazon.com, Gamestop, Newegg.com, Micro-center, Vive.com and for the first time, 34 Fry’s locations across the U.S.
You’ll find bigger savings this season—a 50% off sale—running through the Black Friday weekend on HTC’s Viveport app store, plus a $5 deal bundling Soundstage, Arcade Artist and Lumen, and an in-store cash-back offer which gets you $10 extra store credit when you spend $30.
