Parks: Just 15 Percent of Those Who Said They Intend to Buy a VR Headset Actually Do

December 11, 2016

Half of the people who try a virtual reality (VR) headset say they intend to buy a VR headset. But just 15 percent actually do, according to new market research from Parks Associates.

From the article "Parks: Just 15 Percent of Those Who Said They Intend to Buy a VR Headset Actually Do" by Andrew Burger.
