Oculus Quest 2 — Advanced All-In-One Virtual Reality Headset — 64 GB

Having my first taste for VR using my phone and a Gear VR and tethering it through my PC to play games using an app which I thought was great but I wanted to see what full VR was like so I then bought myself a Rift CV1 but the whole process of having to set the sensors up and then fiddling around with PC settings to get it to start right then having problems with it not starting with HDR mode on my PC it got a bit tiresome and would hardly play any VR games with Half Life Alyx being an exception.After taking the Quest 2 out of the box, turning it on and fiddling about with the lenses to get best picture (which didn't take long) I could see I was in for a treat for my eyes.After a while now I could feel the pressure on my forehead and was really feeling uncomfortable and however much I tried to get the best fit from pulling and loosening the straps it didn't feel right. I did however manage to buy myself an Elite Strap for it and it is so much better and comparable to the Rift level of comfort and takes the strain off my head so I would say that the Elite Strap is essential to buy for the Quest 2.I tried it with a cable connected to my PC and although it looks good and plays well the Link mode for Quest 2 will hopefully be updated soon to 90hz mode with more graphical capabilities although I did manage to change a few things using 'hacks' I found online to change the resolution etc which did make it look better it is on par with my Rift Cv1 so for me it has worthied its purchase.I also used it with Virtual Desktop so I could play wirelessly to my PC the games from Steam and although it looked good my Internet 5g isn't that great having being shared with the rest of the house but anyone with a faster connection will be able to have higher level graphics than I did, I still thought it was great being able to play Star Wars Squadron in VR without any wires and it didn't slow down at all although it did stagger a bit more than once.It is so much easier to just put it on my head and draw a line around a space to set up guardian which is like an invisible cage so you can stay within the cage and not hit any furniture or walls than it is with my Rift which you had to place the sensors then move the sensors then adjust the sensors then.....For me the Quest 2 is an amazing piece of hardware for what it can do and a great start where VR will go on the future.I will update this review once the Link will come out of beta to see if there are any improvements with the picture and graphics connected to my PC but for anyone having doubts coming from a Rift CV1 don't be because for me it's a worthwhile purchase.Thought I would update this after the 90hz link update, so after the update the resolutuon is much better and easily replaces my CV1 as a much better VR headset and I'm even more pleased with my purchase.

It's heavy and uncomfortable on the face, so get an 'elite' headset for cheap on Amazon, they are all the same. I can now wear it and it's distributed the weight perfectly. However I have to move the headset around, mostly pointing a little up so I can see the floor a bit, I think this is due to my prescription. A vented face kit is good too.While the image quality is pretty good, better by link or virtual desktop, the battery life isn't great.I can't wear my glasses with the headset as they are too wide, so keep that in mind, I have to wear my contact lenses.I find the apps on the store a more expensive than I'd like, especially bwhen some of the games are less than an hour long. The apollo11 experience for example lasts 40 minutes but costs 7.99.You can sometimes see the image reflected back on itself through the lenses causing ghosting, shifting the headset around can usually fix some things.Buy some microfiber cloths, as you will accidentally touch the lenses often, mostly with your forehead and fingers putting it on and taking it off.The official link cable is currently £75, but the Anker cable at £23 does exactly the same thing.Enough of the 'bad', the good:Mostly good to excellent quality, I prefer to use apps by link or virtual desktop for the steam games side of things.Not much more to praise other than I can't wait to see how vr will be in 10 years.I've barely put it down since my purchase, sometimes three or more hours go by before I realise I'm thirsty, or that it's 1am. Beatsaber and audica are my go to's at the moment, but games like the gallery ep1&2, fisherman's tale etc are well with the time to play. Google earth vr needs to be experienced too.All in all a great experience so far, well worth the 299.

There’s already a lot of positive reviews so I’ll try and keep this short.I had the first Oculus Quest. During lockdown in particular it was a godsend. The ability to escape into other worlds has been amazing. There’s a good variety of games including the fabulous Beat Saber, Onward and A Fisherman’s Tale to name just a few. I even managed to take part in a virtual version of The Tempest via The Under game.This new version is an improvement in pretty much all areas. The most important being the increase in screen resolution. It’s very noticeable. They’ve lost the OLED capacity for true black but I’ve not noticed this is in real world use. The Quest 2 is also more comfortable as it’s lighter and doesn’t stick out at the front quite so much. Battery life in the hand controllers is also vastly improved. I can’t speak for the basic head strap as I bought the enhanced one. It’s a big improvement. The one I have also increases battery capacity. Well worth the extra investment.Controversy surrounds having to have a Facebook account. If you have one already this isn’t really a practical problem. Just be aware Facebook’s policy is to use your real name so you can’t set up a dummy one without the risk of losing the account. If you’re against the whole idea and don’t like the idea of sharing any data it is possible to set up a Facebook account that is totally private using the privacy settings. It’s perhaps worth exploring all this first before buying the Oculus. It’s a bit like buying an Amazon Echo speaker, a waste of time if you don’t have an Amazon account.All in all it’s a very reasonably priced entry into VR which has reached the point were it really does work. A truly exceptional product.

WE HAD DIFFICULTY SIGNING INTO IT.

Habe die Brille für meinen 11 jährigen Sohn gekauft. Facebook Account nervt bisschen.Habe noch Sidequest am PC installiert. Da gibt es viele Gratis Spiele und Demos. Ohne Facebook. Habe überall im Haus schnelles Wlan. Das heißt überall Kabellos spielbar. Auch Spiele vom PC (Steam) laufen top.Besser als erwartet :-) Mir wird bei paar schnellen Spielen schwindlig. Sohn nicht.64 GB reicht aus würde ich sagen. Neu installieren geht sehr schnell und ich brauche keine 20 Spiele gleichzeitig...Von der Beta auf dem Android Handy ist nun auch Sidequest möglich.

the oculus quest 2 we received has straight prongs on its charger. these are not suitable in australia. what can we do?

Works well, my little brother has lots of fun with this

Mein szspielt sehr gerne damit, gute Investition
