What’s the best head set to buy right now with some limitations. Under $3000. I’m saying best, for image quality and speed. I can use headphones for audio. 1. Stand alone, no computer required. Or Mac OS native support. I don’t want to boot camp or windows. 2. Has to have some kind...

I like the Oculus and I have it modded with the Vive head gear set up. I’m reading that the visuals are much better. Is that true? Subjectively speaking, how much better? I know that’s a tough question. I don’t mind the audio not being better, as long as I can use Bluetooth headphones...

Some time ago, Luckey had say "what a blummer" for the delete of Rift 2. In the 2019 It's come out Rift S, I think that It was almost impossible have Half Dome technology with Eye Tracking and also for that year. So, in your opinion the specs of Rift 2? I don't understand if We will see ever...

Hi Folks, Just joined this amazing community, this is my first post! I'm willing to buy a "VR ready" laptop, I would like to keep the budget under 2500 euro. I own an Oculus 2, my first VR, I love it! My expectations are that I want obviously to be able to play most of the "HEAVY" and...

Might as well start an owners thread since there is not one yet. I have used my Quest 2 a little bit for now and here are my impressions coming from CV1. First, the image is absolutely beautiful. There is still just a hint of SDE but it is equivalent to what you see in 27" 1080p monitor. Like...

Sold Hi, Selling my quest - probably has about 1ish hour of use as I never got around to it. Pretty much like new - charger etc.. never unpacked. Comes with original box and all the accessories. Not trying to turn a profit here - this is just what I paid for it and realized I don't need it...

Hey guys. I was on the road pretty much all of 2019 for work and had little to no to time to play with my Rift CV1. In the flurry of software updates (and one hardware update) that I managed to do in my time home, something about my 3-sensor setup broke. Once every three to seven seconds, my...

My B-Day is coming up and I want to make myself a present. Whatever in $500-700 range should be ok, IF it's actually worth it. I did a quick Google search, and it doesn't look like theres very many "good" VR games out there.. i'm talking truly AAA titles like Fallout 4 or Resident Evil 7. I...

A friend has the original rift and one of the Motion controllers broke so he ordered a new one. He didn't know the Rift-S uses new controllers and that is all they have now on the Oculus site. The new Touch controller will not sync\detect with the original. Seems strange they just completely...

I just started listening to it. Interview is over 2.5 hours.

I can't be the only one who has thought of this, but my room is not that far from the living room and I want to know if there was a way I could extend the HDMI and the USBs that I need for the sensor hmd into the living room without there being any problems. Is there a length limit that I could...

This should seem fairly obvious, as the Quest will use a Qualcomm...

All the first gen (+) HMD's claim 110 degrees FOV. In the video bellow a Oculus Rift is compared to a Samsung Odyssey+ at the 5:00 mark. The difference is quite dramatic I would say being 25%+ larger for the Samsung Odyssey. The Vive Pro and the Odyssey use the same Samsung displays (with the...

I've been using the 2-sensor 360° setup since I got my Rift, and while it's usually pretty good there are occasional hiccups. A third sensor is on the way. The graphics I've seen explaining a 2-sensor setup show the maximum distance between of your sensors as 10', looking diagonally at a 5'x5'...

So I picked up an Odyssey+ to go along with my Rift and HP WMR headset and have played around with it for about a week. tldr: Amazing display and serviceable controllers with easier setup. The main point of comparison is to the Rift as the HP headset was a cheap backup that I let my kids play...

Hello guys! So just wondering how you like Vorpx and how does it compare to the real native games. It would be nice to be able to use other games that are not available in VR for sure. Thanks!

In a Facebook post, Oculus co-founder Brendan Iribe announced that he's leaving Facebook. On the surface of things, the departure seems to be relatively amicable, as most high profile departures are. However, Techcrunch seems to think that his departure is related to the cancellation of the...
