Thanks for helping
I got the rift s and now it’s delayed bc of the snow and they were sold out at Best Buy there was only the quest 2
I got a question im planning on buying a oculus but idk wich one but i dont have a pc so do they require a pc or what? Cuz i heard the rift requires pc but quest 2 doesnt but then heard it doesnt so im confused can someone tell me?
hey im looking for a vr that can have custom maps and mods on games. such as beat saber. But I dont wanna get a rift s if it isnt as good as the quest 2. can anyone help?
The rift s technically is as good as the quest 2. From what I’ve heard it sounds like the rift s has slightly better performance and visuals. However the quest 2 has the advantage of being completely independent. If that’s not important to you I would go rift s which is what I bought. In the future there won’t even be an argument once the rift line has been discontinued, and the quest line will surpass the performance and visuals of the rift and hold the advantage of being independent.
It depends on what you use it for, if you run VR games that are not in the Oculus library, the Rift S is the only choice. I use mine for flight SIM and with Film Director software that are both Oculus compliant running on the PC, so end up with way more flexibility. If I only used the Oculus approved apps, then I would probably go with the Quest2.
How can i set up my rift s so i can see clearly? I tried eye mm on the pc and the headband but i see like i am drunk. My pc has a nvidia geforce gtx 1070 and intel i7-8gen so itz not a problem but i cant see clear on the rift s always
Dude! I love your channel! This is sweet!
Love it, great job! Also, you have a very soothing voice!
Awesome comparison my dude you earned yourself a new subscriber :)
So I've been looking at both, I have a PC with a GTX 1060, R3200g and 16gb ram but I like the idea of using it wirelessly aswell, do you suggest the quest 2 and if so can I use any decent USB 3 cable?
id reccommend you get a quest 2 a pc with those specs wont be able to run big titles smoothly like boneworks half life alyx or asgards wrath so you can use both standalone and pcvr when you need to
@@chip6044 bit late but I've played boneworks and half life alyx just fine on my 1060 and rift S, Asgard's Wrath didn't really run all that well though
@@zwenkwiel816 yeah i can see that now since not all games run the same in vr most games on the 1060 run just fine it all depends on the software that your using
But you musnt install the games to the quest 2, so you can play games from steamvr right ?
Thanks for the indepth review..i was going to ask if you coulld use quest 2 like an s but you answered that already! Awesome video 💕
Can anyone tell me which one is better for VR Chat? I just got a custom model for VR Chat but I've heard you can only use it if you have VR set up with your PC?
If your on pc then get the oculus rift s like I am, I love vrchat which is the main reason i love the rift. And the rift s gives better FPS when playing vrchat so yeah
On the oculus quest the FPS goes up to 20 to 40 but on the rift s it gives 70 to 100 on vrchat
@@ryzee123 so the rift is good to use for pc and on its own ?
I have a question, can i play all Pc vr Games on quest 2 or some Games are onli to rift s
My local pawn shop Is selling a rift S for 250$ . is that worth it ?
I have the quest2 256gb version.
I want to collect different versions.
This is the best review ever!!!
finally! been waiting for this
Happy to deliver!
I’m looking into buying a oculus I’m building my pc currently and almost done so idk if I should chooses the rift or the quest 2 I need help 😰
How long will be Rift S supported by games?
Or is it just like monitor? forever?
Do you have the answer?
Short answer: quest 2 is better in general but rift s is better in performance
thanks
Only if u have a good pc though
Is the performance a major difference or just a difference?
@@Jacxb16 just a deference, the quest 2 is newer so why would they make it worse than the rift s, it wouldn’t make sense
There both 300$ but you have to spend 380$ to play pc games with the oculus link and sift s has better resolution and quest 2 only has 10 refresh rates more which isn’t even noticeable
I bought the Quest ² as a replacement for my Rift CV1. My intention was to use it almost exclusively with a link cable and my PC, but more and more I've been using at as a standalone as well. My biggest surprise was how comfortable the Quest² felt. I read so many stories/comments about how uncomfortable it was. I figured I'd end up having to buy a more comfortable strap, but I've been just fine with the stock strap.

@@yungzynofficial2055 😱😱😱😱😰😰😰😓😓😓😓
@@yungzynofficial2055 ok
my problem with the Quest 2 is the inability to play with friends as party chat cuts out the minute you enter a game with the issue that switches the mic to game chat, which means you cannot possibly coordinated your group to join into the same game. this issue makes the rift s far better than either quest.
i feel like your wrong to complain about AAs you can get rechargeable ones, and what happens 3 years down the line? the batteries have degraded beyond the point of usability, with HTC you have to go spend $200 on some more controllers, with the rif s and quest 2, $20 on some more rechargables
Quick answer: if you want portability and don’t mind charging the Quest 2 on/off while also losing visual fidelity but have no wires then the quest 2 is great and the link cable helps with the battery solution and slightly improved visual but that’s about it. The rift S has the advantage of PC dedicated and having the best quality graphics possible.
Thanks dude.
Hi, i want a vr set for playing games on laptop which one u suggest?
@@mertademali1160 quest 2 its basically a rift s but wayyyy better and plug it into a pc and you will get pcvr level graphics
@@AtlanticPOG hmm i see ty
@@mertademali1160 np
Your review was awesome very professional and right to the point .
How is the rift s graphics better than quest 2 when both are tethered and playing the same program? Doesn't the quest 2 have better resolution and processor than rift 2?
Now but if i use the quest 2 with oculus link, is that just better than the rift s overall?
Hey, quick question!
Im gonna get a oculus rift S, and i wanted to ask if you have to plug in the headphone that your using in the vr headset or can you just let it plugged in, in the pc?
Either way works. Just make sure to disable your oculus headphone in the sound settings so it switch to your other headphone.
@@minhvisual4265 thank you very very much, i appreciate it❤️
@@checkFAXx oculus settings will allow you to choose a sound passthrough where you can play both audio on your headset and your pc like if you want to use pc speakers as well for some games such as Beat saber. It's nice not having to wear headphones. Otherwise yes, just switch your pc audio output to your headphones. though idk why you wouldnt just plug directly into the rift s.
omg great and detailed video, this channel is going to blow up
This nigga nick shrader
I have a question, the Rift S will be discontinued this spring and I want to get a VR headset for the PC and I’m debating between these two but how does the quest 2 perform against the rift s on PC and how easy is it? Which one would you recommend for PC.
I would always choose rift s
get the rift
will storage matter for the quest 2 if it’s connected to a pc? ik it may seem like a dumb question but i was gonna get the rift s because it’s pc powered but i figured it would be sick to take to a park with friends in the summer or to a sleepover so i just want to know about the storage part
no the quest internal storage is ment for running games natively on the quest (the quest have its store cpu gpu and games its like a laptop or a smart phone). pc games are running on pc and the quest is just a monitor to show the game
1:34 hey whats that thing on top of your monitor?
That's the LaMetric Time. I have it attached with adhesive/velcro.
The quest 2 is dope the only set back for me is that the battery life is about 2 and a half hours full charge the games look crazy good also
But if you have the link cable can you charge and play?
@@TJ.-. Yeah
2 and a half? I haven’t charged mine in two days, it’s at 30%
Hey quick question can you connect a wireless headset to an oculus quest 2
great video. you deserve more subs. thanks for the info. great quality.
Great vid. I bought Quest 2 last week and it is fantastic, tethered or wired it runs great and after some fighting with the headstrap it's now pretty comfortable too :)
What if you don’t have a PC does it still work?
@@evanwyckoff3475 Yes mate, some great Quest only games out there.
R u using the stock headstrap? and also is the quest 2 comfortable, im scared to buy it cos people say its too heavy and u have to buy accessories to make it nice so thats why im asking lol😅😂
@@zubz4336 i bought mine last week, most fun I've had playing video games in years! Totally worth the money

Rift s: more games etc
Oculus: don't need a computer
Rift s: if you own a decent pc then get the Rift s
Oculus quest 2: if you don't own a pc this is a good choice.
Well you can connect the quest to your computer
@@Artur_Galis its not as good though yes it has a link but the quality isn't gonna be as good for the games
@@Artur_Galis like in fnaf help wanted its way to bright and the animatronics texture looks retarded
@@NotLRK No mate I have been watching videos at it even look better than on an oculus rift s
@@Artur_Galis no mate its not trust me
so im stuck between the rift s or the q2, i have a pretty good pc and dont really care about the wireless feature of the q2 but i also dont know if the rift s is worth getting because ive heard that its getting discontinued next year and no longer being supported. so what do yall think should i get the rift s or the q2. I also heard the q2 when playing you can see the borders and it lets in light and idk about the rift s>\.
Pretty good pc. Get the rift s. I have the rift s and have used the quest. The quest overtime will lose ability to keep a charge. The rift s is ur best bet :)
@@HypeCrazed alright ill get the rift s thanks a lot man :)
@@HypeCrazed If you use Virtual Desktop to stream games from your PC, you can add a Battery pack for extended battery life on quest 2 though
I need help with something. I'm stuck with wanting a quest 2 and a rift s but I don't know which one to get. I want to play blades and sorcery or zero caliber on it, but I don't know which one I can get that will let me play it. Some advice?
it depends, if you have a pc, youll have to buy a link cable to connect the quest 2. the quest 2 has a higher refresh rate, bicer controllers, and better displays, so i suggest you go.for that, however rift s doesnt need a facebook account, amd its easier to setup on pc
wondering if its a good idea to go from cv1 to rift s
Yea bc it has better fps and many great upgrades
@@GDPHILOSOPHY Incorrect. The CV1 has 90Hz panels while the Rift S runs on a 80Hz panel. You will get 10 fps less on the Rift S compared to the CV1.
I sold my CV1 for a Rift S, and I have mixed feelings about it. It didn't feel like an upgrade honestly. But the Quest 2 however is a great upgrade from the CV1. There is a reason the Rift S is being discontinued next year. Get a Quest 2 if anything, the CV1 is still a great headset with some advantages over both Rift S and Quest 2, such as audio solution, better tracking and much deeper black levels. I'm still really impressed by the Quest 2 though, and would definitely recommend it.
@@mattiassjoholmlingon ohhh shit I forgot about cv1 specs
The quest 2 is 90 hz with no pc the rift s is 90 hz with pc
I was gonna buy the quest 2 but I have a decent pc and I much prefer visuals and performance so I think imma buy the rift s ty for the review
you dont need lthe 100 dollar link cable
the quest 2 faceplate is a hair collector and i have 2 cats, so in the middle of a beat saber session my nose would randomly get itchy. but i got a new face plate for it, and it is a lot better
So im looking for a vr headset(hence why i am watching this video) What would say would be good for me im not really going to take it anywere and just using it for pc gaming but im stumped for with one i should get. A response by anyone would be very appreciated,Thanks
Brayden Jessie I would say the Rift S if you care about your privacy. You need a Facebook account that has factual information of yourself because if you use a faked account you run the risk of being banned from using the quest 2 entirely.
Brayden Jessie even those with a Facebook account that is legit have also been banned from what I have heard. Again the choice is up to you. I personally wouldn’t like to run the risk of being banned from using the headset out of no where even if the chances are small.
You probably already bought, but rift s headset is very comfortable. he's probaly the only person that prefers quest headset over rift s halo band. very easy to put on and comfortable. visuals are stunning. The quest looks better on paper, but most everyone that plays TETHERED. prefers rift s.
I just order my rift s im not giving mi info out plus im all about performance eventually will get a valve index
@@JaeGotChu can you give me follow up is it worth it?
I'm getting the rift s when u want to use it on steam vr it's really simple and easy, quest 2 has its own store and stuff but ima use my pc just to play phas and it's own games, you'll also need to get a fast cable in order to connect to steam games on quest 2
can you play steam vr games on the rift s?
@@-Ali_G- u can but its a bit harder youll need a fast cable and you'll still need to do a few things to play steam vr.
Whats nice right now, the rift s is currently the same price as the quest 2 aka 300 dollars US
Making the rift s the absolute obvious choice if you've got any semblance of a decent pc.
@@taylon5200 i think ill use my quest 1 with link until the quest 3 comes out, its pretty much as good as a rift but wireless
I would of got a rift but don’t have a pc maybe in the future tho
@@taylon5200 not at all, the resolution is better on the quest.
Question. On the quest 2 if I connect it to a pc for pc - vr games does the pc need to be a high end gaming pc? Thanks for the video.
It doesn't need to be a high end gaming PC. But your experience will vary depending on what kind of PC you have. Though, most modern gaming PCs (even on a budget) can handle VR games even if its at reduced settings.
Yea for quest 2
can the rift s do air link, i dont mind using the big beefy cable... just wondering if theres any options without a cable
So excited for my rift!! Any day now!
Mine is coming Tuesday! Did you get yours yetv
@@Mysterious420x yes but sadly the oculus software is down. Had to find a work around :/ But it works now! Hopefully the software is fixed before tuesday
@@kemidoesgaming5106 Hi. Can you tell us some experience with the Rift S?
For example:
What is your opinion about the cable?
What is your opinion about the resolution (and what specs do your pc have)?
Please
I have both but personally I would go for the rift s. The quest is very smooth looking when playing games but it’s just a pain having to charge it so often
You can just play it while it’s plugged in and you will never have a battery problem
@@frosty9237 90$ cable to buy from oculus tho 🤣
@@juniorturtlez you don’t need to buy it from oculus other cables that cost like 10$
If you want to play medal of honor vr which one be better and which place would you buy the game from so if it does come stand alone you can get medal of honour for free ?
medal of honor need minimum an RTX 2080 its so powerfull
For someone that has a beefy pc. Should I get the quest 2 64gb with the link with better refresh rate and lenses. Or the rift s with worse refresh rate and worse lenses. Also heard the link isn’t as good as a rift pc version
Then if I get the headstrap, link, and headphones that’s over 500$. With the rift s with only headphones for around the same price
And u don't even need a link really because of virtual desktop and sidequest
@@shmokeythefatcat they are both the same price now. And sidequest seems like such a hassle. I think my pc is good enough for the rift s. I have a 5600 xt
where would u use a vr headset except the same room as ur pc anyways?
I love removable batteries. I use a AA battery charger that takes 20 minutes to charge up 4 AA's. It means that when one set goes flat, I can swap them out in 60 seconds rather than having to stop playing to charge them up. With regards to the Quest 2, as a RiftS owner I would only move to a Quest2 if there was no compromise on the graphics performance and tracking. I understand the Quest controllers to be using fewer sensors to increase it's battery life and I would want to know if this makes the tracking worse than the RiftS controllers. From a graphics perspective I know the Quest 2 technically has a higher resolution and screen refresh rate but it seems like there is a graphics quality vs refresh rate trade-off with with the Hz modes. Being directly connected to the PC on the RiftS I have to make no compromise on graphics quality. If there is same graphics performance/quality is available tethered with a link cable then the Quest 2 seems like it would be the better option.
Just buy the quest oculus rift s display port stopped connecting and now the sensors won’t connect such bs
hello folks, can I work with Quest 2 as work multiple monitor setup?? thanks in advance
I believe so but it is quite a bit more difficult
Man I want the 2 cuz it has no wires but if your Facebook acc gets banned your device renders useless.

Most of my vr compatible games are on my pc and I’d prefer performance over convenience as I don’t plan to do much traveling with my headset
performance is better on quest 2 with oculus link. 90hz vs 80hz on rift s
@@andyandrews55 Yes but quest 2 with link is taking the raw gameplay footage and adding an additional layer of processing that converts it to video to be transferred over usb-c which introduces video compression artifacts and image softening on the headset or "Quest 2 Sub Pixel Enhancements". Note: this is from reading peoples reviews and comments all over the web about Quest 2/ Oculus Link
@@andyandrews55 the link cable creates worse performance though. The rift s is native to pcvr games and without doubt has better performance
@@liamodonnell3450 if your telling me that the rift s looks better and performs better then your wrong. Sorry i have both and with the quest 2 running at 90hz and the render resolution at 1.7 it looks so much better. Sorry but its true
@@andyandrews55 I also have both. And a really good pc. So for me the rift s looks better by miles

That's correct.
So on the quest 2 would I be able to play Pavlov , and other games
Bro, great production quality! Smooth af. Keep up the good work brother! Subbed!
Quest 2 has HIGHER resolution than Rift S. Why did you say it has lower resolution?!
Cuz it is lower
@@riot_8366 It's higher, look it up. It also has a 90hz refresh rate, where as the Rift S is 80hz.
@@gu3z185 the 90 hz dont make sense on it or even the beta for 120 hz because its wireless even with oculus link you just cant get the performance you get on the rift s because even though the rift s has 80hz it feels much more fluent its like getting a 4k monitor and your pc is a potato looks good runs like shit see what im saying? the quest 2 is superior in the names of no cables but how do you want to get 90fps in every situation you get into even with the connection of oculus link its just not great the rift s has 80hz and thats something you can achieve nearly everywhere and these few pixels more dont bother so much because there is nor glaring or god rays so you just see clearly on both though but i would go for the rift s if you asking me if you want the performance and the greater software if you want to go wireless then the quest 2 because they are nearly equal in every point btw sorry for my english its not my main language
Is your opinion still the same after the link updates
im new to this VR stuff an just got my first gaming laptop so i can take VR with me places to friends ect. its the msi with a 1660ti gc 16gb ram and i7, my question is can the quest 2 be tethered to my laptop so i can play no mans sky from steam in vr? on some other reviews i seen the quest 2 is alot more durable then the rift S and if true im aiming towards that but i dont want any issues with being able to play my pc games and thanks for the vid.
Quest 2 will lag on ur thing
At 5:12 You said that the Oculus Quest 2 is "Objectively an inferior experience with lower resolution." This statement is objectively false. The Oculus Quest 2 has better resolution AND higher refresh rate than the Rift s. I can't speak about the hiccup issue you seemed to be having, but considering that it seems like you had a lower resolution on a headset with objectively higher resolution I doubt that the problems are caused by the headset in general. Might be that you have a dysfunctional headset. Or you did something wrong during the setup.
5:10 actually quest two has a 90% resolution
I have a Razor Blade laptop, wanting to get oculus for Boneworks and Pavlov, what should I do?
quest 2 if you can wait a month or more

I just purchased the Rift S last week over the quest 2 only because I am mostly playing on my PC. I have to say that the experience has been amazing. It is unfortunate that they are going to discontinue it next year since they want to focus more on quest 2. But if they are willing to optimize the quest 2 for the PC with the link cable, I am all for it. I won't be upgrading anytime soon until the quest 3 maybe.
discontinue.... can you tell me more about what that means?
They will discontinue the production of the rift s from 2021....
Support with software wise will still happen
Why do you say “it is going to be” so much😂
Anyway love the vids
Is there any latency with the quest 2 on PC?
Excellent video, thanx for making/sharing it.
Ok I have the rift s and my friend has the quest 2, I tried out both simultaneously and I can clearly tell the difference in resolution from the rift s, (I’m doing these tests with pcvr on both so link for the quest and just the standard rift s.) In the settings u can actually change the render resolution with a slider, and the refresh rate to 90hz. All though the quest 2 isn’t meant to be pcvr I think the experiences were literally equal. I’m comparing pcvr on both since obviously if u don’t have a good computer than the quest 2 is your only choice. That’s all you need to really know but I’m going to go really in depth about this. Comfort: straight out of the box rift s is way more comfortable, but I owned a vive with deluxe audio strap and u can actually do what’s called the frankenquest mod which is basically attaching the HTC vive deluxe audio strap to the quest with some adapters. This solves two things with the quest 2 which is audio and of course comfort. You can also do this to the rift s, but no matter what it’s going to be 100 dollars more. Controllers: Definitely personal preference but I actually like the quest 2 controllers more than the rift s, the battery compartment door doesn’t slide off anymore, and battery life is better. Quest also has finger tracking if you don’t use controllers which is currently in beta. Both feel good, but quest feels better. Also the haptic feedback on the quest 2 feels more bumped up so you get more rumble in intense games. The performance feels better on pcvr since it uses the same game but with higher resolution and refresh rate. I also happen to own a first gen quest and the link experience was a 7/10 now with quest 2 a 8.5/10. Rift s still has less latency but of course its a pcvr headset. So in conclusion for the second time, IF you have a good pc get the quest 2 because you can adjust refresh rate to 90hz and upscale the resolution to higher numbers. If you have an ok pc this means around the recommended specs for the rift s, then get the rift s since your pc might not be able to handle those high resolutions of the quest 2. If you have no pc then obviously get the quest 2. For me overall I think quest 2 can still win in the ok pc category since you can also turn down the resolution to default or closer to the rift s, while still maintaining 90hz and being 100 dollars cheaper. That’s all and thank you if you read through all of this, reply if u have a question and stay safe, good bye!
Yes, I did read through all of this. Thank you for leaving this message! It was very informative and eye opening!
@@TechSummitTV Thanks dude not many youtubers respond as fast as you! Great content, and stay safe!
Thank you for such a great and thorough review. It seems like the Quest 2 has modifications you can always make to make it slightly edge out the rift s. I think you made it clear that it’s the best option. It sounds like the quest 2 can still be made to do everything the rift s can do just by keeping it plugged in for battery, and gives you better graphics (or equal) if you have a great PC
What type of games do I lose access to on quest that rift has no troubles w (given a strong pc)
Great vid just wanted to say Even if there is the quest 2 I chosen the rift s and it's because it's better for me.(people thinks rift s is bad which its not it's just the quest 2 is a little better.. at least I think is little)
so can i still play games from my computer like vr chat or phasmophobia with the quest 2?
Yes with an oculus quest2 but you need steam so that requires a pc you shoul (in my opinion) get the rift s cause I don’t think you need a Facebook account to use a rift a but idk that
@@avn._.1767 you do need a facebook for the rift s, i don't think there is any way around that.
Where are the headphones??
And I've heard that the microphone doesent work too well on the quest 2.
it has built-in audio, and the microphone is completely fine
The quest 2 has higher resolution and refresh rate. It can also be connected to a PC wirelessly by using Virtual Desktop. You can also play PCVR games by using cloud computing with a virtual gaming PC with Shadow PC. Literally the only thing that the Rift s has over the Quest 2 is a slightly larger field of view. There is almost no reason to go with the Rift s over the Quest 2. There is no way I would attach myself to a PC with wires if I don't have to.
Ok but it don’t need to be charged also no stutters and smother fps ur stuck at 60 while the rift can get 120
@@graystoncain7357 Quest 2 can also get 120hz. The no charging argument makes no sense because you can still plug the thing in if for some reason you like being tethered.

Just buy one they on sale for 300
good informative video you've earned that like
Does the quest 2 battery die and turn off while you use it on your pc with the link cable?
No for the 8th time, people should know this lol
@@dylanweise4802 people should know this yet no information on it is available so yea...... be less mad about it XD
@@xMoxleyx I'm not mad, it's funny how people are this stupid where Oculus says 2-3 hours runtime :)
@@dylanweise4802 and that still doesnt awnser my comment LOL are you serious
I read on reddit that it does consume more power that it gets through the canle, so yes. It does drain the battery with the link cable.
But can the quest 2 use discord???
Yes
Ima go with rift s for better looks but my main reason he forgot the part where it has battery
you have the quest 2 ?
@@kieran6876 bruh he said he was going with rift s why would he have quest 2?

I heard the rift s has a bit more field of view in your a little less tunnel-visioned so it seems a little more immersive is that correct
the high fov is more immersive, but you lack pixels, so it depesnds if your after fov or less screen door effect :D
@@jamie2875 I want both lol
If both of them plug in … which one has the better quality image ?
thank you for doing this review i think i will buy the rift s
you really should
I’m getting a gaming pc soon but I don’t know which one to buy rift s or the quest 2, also does vive tracker work with oculus just because I want to play VRChat
the vive tracker does not work without basestations. The oculus headsets use inside out tracking. To use the trackers you need to have any Vive, or Index to use them.
You can use them with some extra software but it will be a lot of extra $$ so if you really want them you should get index or vive.
@@JaxxAttack ok thx
@@exvergeyt8247 but you may want to look up some vids on it before in case they change it or something and you can’t.
Get a reverb g2 all the new oculus dont have trackers
So i have a pc thats 2060 rtx I7 what should i get Oculus rift s or Oculus quest 2?
I just need a vr that is good and i dont need to always adjust the vr so it doesnt fall of my face the games i will play is ( boneworks, blade and sorcery)
Which one :P
the rift s is 2k per eye so you need a very good pc

@@Silver_s105 the only problem with the quest 2 when playing pc games is that it needs more pc power to encode the video stream and send it via USB-C or wifi but the rift s dont have this problem as its like a monitor with a display port
So I have the rift s but now thinking of getting the quest 2, got a few questions:
1. If you connect the quest 2 with link or the usb cable is there any lag? Input or otherwise?
2. Can the quest 2 be used in any way without losing battery power?
I think if the link cable is plugged into the pc it’s charges it so you can play without loosing power. As for the first question I was thinking the same thing but I doubt it
The link cable won’t charge your headset, I’ve tried it. For the most part, there is no lag using link with the quest. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t there, as link is still in beta (as mentioned in the video) it can stagger a bit especially during any system notifications. I also noticed loading into games using the link, you’ll have a crazy screen-door effect, and it would duplicate your screen and tracking would just disappear. Using link is also slightly slower, nothing major but the rift s is smoother. If you’re only going to be using the link feature casually, and still going to be using the quest 2 standalone, then get it. If you want one for pcvr, and don’t mind being tethered to a pc, then get the rift s. :)
@@wrigi5737 wait so it doesn’t charge the headset at all?
@@TJ.-. It doesn’t charge, but it tries to. I’ve noticed that when I stopped playing to charge the headset, it was still on even when displaying that it was at 0% of battery life. But, if you keep playing it will still die like 2 minutes after. So yes, using link will not charge the headset. I’ve also just found out that even the quest 1 has better resolution than the rift s, but for some reason people think that using link to play pcvr is smoother than the rift s, it really isn’t. But, link is still in beta, and the difference of how smooth it runs is nothing major. It’s definitely not going to improve upon on how well you perform in game. I would always recommend the quest 2, just because of the higher resolution and you still have that option to play games wirelessly. For me, the quest 2 beats any other current headset. Unless however, it’s a valve index.
@@wrigi5737 do you find that the quest 2 battery life is a problem or no

thanks! great video! but quick question what it the little thing on top of your wide monitor that has a youtube logo and the number?
question so if I use the cable do I get access to steam vr?
Yes but its 720p and 60hz

What were your thoughts on both the Oculus Quest 2 and the Rift S? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
the light shining directly into the cam is very annoying
@Zexy no. Quest does not run by pc
@@Pilgram1308 You can use any USB 3.0 cable now
@@HypeCrazed Yes it can. You can use any USB 3.0 Cable to connect the Quest 2 to your pc and use it to play pc VR. The graphics do increase dramatically when you do connect it to your pc and use it to play pc VR.

Would the quest 2 be a better option, if I would mainly play on my PC?
The rift s would be best for pc im pretty sure
The visuals on rift S will be better. Though they are improving the quest 2 with updates. But youd need that oculus link cable to teather to get similar performance. When teather battery still drains though. So be prepared if you go quest 2
I have rift s and have tried quest and if I’m being honest I’d get quest. If you don’t mind spending a few extra on the link cable and the premium head strap it just seems like a better option in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong I love my rift s too but they just push more updates to quest 2.
I wish if i got the rift s bro like the battery in the quest 2 feels like it dies in 9 minutes ;-;
Sadly the rift has been discontinued and we will not see a “Rift X”. So I will most likely go with the quest 2.
1. It’s wireless and I can take it anywhere
2. I can still stream steamVR games to it and play them
3. I don’t have a 3
You probably know this but if you get a quest 2, be careful with the account problem.

Although the tech is great, it definitely should be mentioned that facebook now has taken complete control of over their oculus customers. Facebook recently announced that if you delete or disable your facebook account you will lose all of your oculus purchases. Also your facebook account must remain "in good standing" to have access to your oculus account.
For that alone I will not buy!
Thanks. Was hoping to find this info. Figured FB would force their bullshit onto the user.

Can one use rechargeable batteries for the controllers or will this harm the controllers?
yes you can use rechargeable batteries
