I surely wouldn't want to bet against Zuck, having bought multiple Quest2s, it surely has hit the product-market fit! Unless Apple steals their lunch coming year, Meta is going to be a big hit.

The quest2's standalone casual gaming capabilities are great - it's easy to setup a party guest for a round of beat saber in a couple of minutes, reminiscent of how accessible the Wii was

if the rumors of Apple's device costing $2000 are correct, they're not going to push the Quest out of that market.

I own the Quest 2. Right now it's still a gimmick. It comes out of the case for about 45 minutes a month.

There are a significant people who spend tbe majority of their waking hours in VR already, and it's entirely still in early adopter phase.

Lots of people found smartphones to be a gimick early on too.
