Late last year, Bigscreen launched its ultra-slim PC VR headset, the Bigscreen Beyond, and if you’ve been holding out for the right moment to snag one, now could be your chance. In its first-ever Black Friday promotion, starting this week, they’re throwing in a complimentary Audio Strap with every purchase.
The Bigscreen Beyond is diminutive in size, primarily because it leverages the SteamVR tracking system, which means it doesn’t require built-in sensors for inside-out tracking. Instead, it features dual 2,560 × 2,560 micro-OLED displays combined with pancake lenses, optimizing both space and weight. This makes it exceptionally light, tipping the scales at just 127 grams, which is even lighter than the optional Audio Strap itself, which weighs 160 grams.
Throughout the Black Friday period, stretching from November 27th to December 2nd, you can pick up the Bigscreen Beyond for $999, and they’ll toss in the Audio Strap, a $129 value, for free.
This offer is available in all regions where Bigscreen ships, including the US, UK, most of continental Europe, Ireland, Iceland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Japan.
To claim your free Audio Strap with the purchase, simply use the code BLACKFRIDAY24 at checkout. The Audio Strap swaps the standard fabric strap for a sturdier frame that snugly cradles your head, comes with an adjustable dial for a perfect fit, and includes built-in on-ear headphones for an immersive audio experience.
The pressing question for potential buyers is whether investing in the Bigscreen Beyond is worthwhile. In our detailed review, we highlighted the headset’s bespoke face pad, stunning visuals, and its compact design, making it exceptionally comfortable for prolonged gaming sessions.
Initially, when the product was launched, we found the headset somewhat “incomplete” due to the absence of built-in audio, as the Audio Strap had not been released. With the complimentary Audio Strap now included, that issue is effectively resolved. Be sure to read through our full review to determine if this headset meets your gaming needs.
One important note, you’ll need SteamVR base stations, motion controllers, and a VR-ready PC to fully enjoy what the Bigscreen Beyond has to offer. Check if your system can handle it just to be sure.
Keep an eye out this week, as we gather all the top Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals. You won’t want to miss out!
