Causes skin reactions

Facebook said on Tuesday that it is temporarily halting sales of the Oculus Quest 2, a month before a planned update to a new entry-level model with more onboard storage.

The move comes after several reported cases of skin reactions to the headset's included foam faceplate, the social media giant confirmed.

According to a Facebook post on the issue from earlier this year, the company says a “small percent” of Quest 2 owners have reported the issue.

However, some of the online cases have been bad enough to cause faces to puff up and eyes to close.

Facebook changed the manufacturing process of its foam face interfaces earlier this year, but the concerns still prompted Facebook to stopped selling the Quest 2 in coordination with the US Product Safety Commission.
