Absolutely poorly thought out IPD fitting

Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2021

Due to all the extremely positive tests and reviews on YouTube, I ordered my very first VR glasses.

The operation is extremely good, especially Air Link via WLAN, no latency, everything responds directly.

Now for the big problem, the IPD (interpupillary distance).
I see everything blurry, why? Because the maximum IPD is 68mm.
So I measured my IPD, it is almost 74mm.
I did not know that you have to pay attention to this, you assume that the developers have thought about it and calculated everything, especially such a banality. Only 5-6 milimeters more!

Why do you do that ?
I found on Reddit and other forums, very many users who have the same problem.

What were the developers thinking, please ?

Measure your interpupillary distance beforehand, if it is greater than 68mm, the VR is completely unusable for you.

I hope with the Quest 3, the problem will be fixed.

Now I have to send the VR expensive back from Germany.

Thanks for nothing.

Best regards.

Simply a game changer with a great price point!

Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2021

Style: Headset OnlySize: 128GBVine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )

This 128GB storage capacity is supposed to replace in full the previous 64GB version while keeping the same amazing price!

I must admit this 128GB now suits most newer games which are usually massive in size. This is really an excellent space to store good/new/high quality games. Even giving the option to store/watch more 2D and 3D movies.

I myself liked the head strap that comes with it, although I never tried the Elite Strap.
I would also recommend getting an anti-scratch silicone ring protector if you wear a glass like me as this should help both: your glasses and the VR lenses from getting scratched. It will let you keep your glasses on while playing games or watching movies.

Before you use the headset straight away, it needs a few tweaks here and there to ensure comfortable wear specifically for your head size and comfortable view for your eyes by adjusting both the strap sizing and placement as well as the IPD settings.

A VR silicon cover is now included in the box which is a great addition for people with sensitive skin. This also resolves many of the complaints about skin irritation in the previous version.

Being a classic PC gamer for many years, I would say VR technology is really something that every gamer should try. Just make sure that you are playing in a safe space and a specialized playing area!

The Oculus Quest 2 is a fully standalone VR headset and I may also call it a “gaming monster”, with native built-in games if you don’t have a powerful gaming PC. It also works with steam VR games with no problem if you do have a gaming PC and you can connect them both using Steam link and the Oculus Link desktop app.

The headset can have a refresh rate of up to 90Hz for some games, compared to only 72Hz on the previous model which also has a lower resolution. This is a big plus of course.

Overall, in my opinion, this is the best VR headset around at this moment which can render up to near 4K resolution at 90hz.

This has the best enjoyment/dollar value of just about any purchase ever.

This is my first and only VR experience. With that said, in just the first few minutes, during the setup and updating process, my mouth was agape. The tutorial had me smiling in wonder at the feeling of immersion. The apps available natively to the Quest 2 are varied and fun, if not cheap, but there are demos and free games out there. We like is so much, we are probably buying a second in the near future.

However, my favorite piece of this requires use of a decent PC and fast Wi-Fi: Oculus AirLink, currently in Beta, is a cable free connection to the Oculus program on your computer that allows use of Oculus Rift and Steam VR games. These are generally games that need the extra processing power of a real GPU, and offer better graphics and more complex environments than the Quest alone can provide. Google Earth VR, a free app that isn't on the Quest natively is, for me, worth the price of admission on its own. Being able to walk among the skyscrapers of NYC, or play Gojira in Tokyo is awe inspiring.

A couple of minor cons: Battery life is poor. During our first days, when we were using it especially heavily, I had a battery pack and USB-C cable connected to the Quest that we'd swap into pockets to add play time. They make improved head-strap setups that include provisions for holding a battery.

About that strap, some in my family complained about it, so we may be shopping for an upgrade. I can live with it, however.

In low light, the guardian, the virtual barrier that is set to keep you from running into walls, can flake out, dropping you out of the game.

And lastly, a big con for some folks: This requires an active, real, Facebook account. Deactivating your account deactivates your Quest. Deleting you account deletes, permanently, all of your purchased apps, with no refund. There are lots of reports regarding problems with folks using fake names, secondary accounts, other folk's accounts, etc. When there are problems, Facebook will delete or lock accounts, and render your Quest a brick. Customer service is reportedly horrendous when trying to fix these problems. My advice would be to use your real account, don't fudge around, and you should be fine. Yes, they are tracking you, Yes they are subsidizing the prices of these thing by commodifying your data. However, unless you are already complete social media hermit, getting in bed a little deeper isn't going to alter your data footprint in any significant way. If you are here shopping on Amazon with a cellphone in your hand or pocket, worrying about Facebook is sort of pointless.

TL;DR - GET ONE. It's a great value within the reach of many people. You can have a ton of fun without a PC, and even more with one.

very good quality headset. Feels very comfortable to wear if you put back strap near your ocipital bone but sadly lot of people don't know how to wear properly i mentioned. Great for watch netflix movie in monster IMAX theater screen and also tons of 3D VR 180 videos on Youtube. Games are so many to choose and more new game to come every week.

Exercising, relaxing, playing games, painting, and coloring. These are some of the many things you have access to. There's golf, and bowling, tennis, omg it's sooo much to even try to explain. There's this one app called wander, it'll literally will take you anywhere Google maps have access to. I love it so much I needed to share it with my family so I purchased them one each. We're going to kill zombies now together lol

This is the Absolute Best thing I have ever purchased for myself.

Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2021

Style: Headset OnlySize: 128GBVerified Purchase

I bought this for video games, I have since been blown away by what I have found to be freely available.

I have tried around 150 apps/games/experiences. I have only paid for about 8 of them. I learned how to make music tracks in Virtuoso, I took a tour of Ann Frank's house, I learned how it felt to lose your eye sight and experience your surroundings through sound, I have seen countless documentaries (which is a whole new experience since you are there in the world), I got to fly through the International Space Station, I have fought as a gladiator against man and beast, I have fired up my last shot against hordes of zombies before resorting to baseball bats as the adrenaline sores, I have spent many hours exercising in a variety of games, but one of my favorite is Moon Rider (a free VR web browser title)(it's a rhythm game that can be played with light sabers or by punching the beats), and I have also attended concerts and enjoyed events while still being able to be my normal introverted self.

My computer is not at all capable of working with VR, so that sucks, but the amount of stuff the Quest 2 can do stand alone is insanely impressive!

There is so much here, it is like buying yourself a second life. I highly recommend reading up ahead of time on a site such as UploadVr. They have great introductory stories hidden away on that site specifically to prepare you and educate you on the Quest 2.

My 65 year old mother even bought one, primarily for indoor exercise, but she also enjoys the travel apps which is as close to going somewhere as you can get without going there. Personally I enjoy the free Virtual Traveller, but I think my mother uses a pay app.

If you are on the fence about this, stop right now and just buy it.

The only caveat to this is that you do need enough well lit space that you can swing your arms about in a circle.

I very quickly made more and more and more room in my living room. Now with the holidays I new there would be trouble. I punched a Christmas ball off the tree yesterday whole in a demo fight in an amazing boxing game called The Fight. I still haven't found that ball. It was a good solid left hook! I've also punched the ceiling while jumping and grabbing for a frisbee in the free zero g space sports game that plays like a cross between Ender's Game and Tron. In the gladiator game Gladius I ended up punching the handle off my decorative display cabinet. I cut my hand up on that one. The point here is you need space. Even when you try not to move, you move! There is a digital barrier that you start to see if you get too close to the edge, but in the heat of the moment it's not always enough.

I’m so incredibly pleased with this headset, if you are looking to do pcvr it is better than a rift S and i highly recommend you get this one instead of it, if you aren’t looking to do pcvr it is still so incredible. the graphics aren’t insanely great but they are very good for what it is especially at its price. Highly recommend for pcvr and regular users!!
