I bought the case--and packed it up for return within fifteen minutes. I actually liked how it included spaces for "everything in its place", though I think it could have been a little deeper--but the SMELL. I'm honestly not usually at all sensitive to that sort of plastic/gasoline smell that some plastic-based items can have, but this was so bad that it literally made my eyes water from three feet away. By the time I'd closed it up and reboxed it, my throat was actually hurting from the fumes. I can't imagine how awful it would be for someone who *is* sensitive to that stuff. I'd gladly try it again, and even pay a bit more, if they find a manufacturer that uses materials that seem a little less toxic, but right now, I honestly can't recommend it for people who are at all sensitive to smells.
That's a shame but totally understandable. I just opened mine and gave it a big sniff and can hardly smell anything, nothing strong. Might depend on the batch and maybe they changed something in mine to yours or the other way. I'm using my case for a Go I use at events so couldn't use it if it had the smell yours does.
Oooh. A box box of gadgets! I bet you loved going through that. When Tandy closed the local branch and three massive boxes of stock and asked my dad to make a silly offer. He offered a pound and when they laughed he said it was silly but asked them to check with the manager. We got them, and when we got home we spent a week going through them. It made me feel so happy.
Eason is a great bloke, I got that case back in mid October about a week after I bought my Go and it's still going strong, I manage to get the Go, controller, gamepad, Anker battery pack, travel router, wall charger plus leads, ear phones and cleaning cloths in my case. Literally everything I need for taking the Go anywhere. He also sent me the wall hanging unit recently but I have yet to put it up due to rearranging the house but I've checked it out and it feels pretty solid. That other stand with the magnetic lead looks really nice! Great review Ramarcus, it's great to see companies embracing the Go and making this kind of stuff to enhance it.
I always expected more accessories for the Go given the Mi Chinese version is the same device. Always good to see support for the Go. Glad Eason was able to sort you out with some bits as well, it all seems like quality stuff. 👌
Me too, I think Oculus really missed a trick there, I know they get their main income from the app store but still... There are some very obvious accessories that people would want, spare straps, replacement foam facial inserts, I've heard a few people say they've broken the plastic eye rings when trying to remove/replace them. Not sure why Oculus don't carry a small range of replacement/spare bits and bobs but I'm glad to see independent companues like Easons and VRcover filling the void. I have a weird issue with my Go, if I use it with a battery pack the only cable that will keep it fully charged while I'm using it is the usb cable it came with. I've tried several including the magnetic ones but the Oculus still drains albeit slower. I contacted Oculus to see if they could sell me a spare cable or tell me the exact cable they send out but they coldn't help me at all. Not to complain mind you I think Oculus is a great company and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do in the future.
Not all usb cables are made equal, they can reduce the amperage and the Go needs a 2a current to stay topped up. Anker is a solid brand and usually builds solid cables. 👍
I'm very pleased with my Anker powerbank, it came with a charging cable which works for charging the bank but not with the Go efficiently. If you know of a good usb cable model/make that works for you I'd be very grateful if you let me know what it is, at least I'd know whether I had a quirky Go or just had a bad run on cables, much obliged to you sir ( tips hat ).
These are the best oculus go related videos on TH-cam and you look like a great lad to hang out with for a beer! Keep up the great work! Cant wait for your videos when Oculus quest comes out :)
The case holds the american two pin plug, and an xbox one controller. I think the spare round hole is for a power bank. I have it and its a great case.
Good evening ramarcus thank you for showing off the different VR accessories you received from AMVR. I am definitely interested in more videos like this. Have a good evening ramarcus.
I bought the AMVR case. It arrived a lot quicker than it said and is very very good. It's tough and has lots of room. I would highly recommend. Nice one Marcus mate.
I just received the Go case from eBay, which is much cheaper that it would have cost to get it delivered in Australia from Amazon. Fits everything I need to put in there even when using the stiffer VRCover strap. Highly recommended and I will definitely get one for the Quest if he releases one.
Some interesting add-ons RaMarcus. I like the stand, storage case and replacement foam. Shame they are just on the USA Amazon store at the moment as import duty would add a bit. Having said that, I believe Amazon do calculate the due fees for sending to the UK and you pay them up front stopping the Royal Mail charging their £8 or so handling fee on top of the other charges!
It's always great to see new accessories. But I see in this video a small but important bit and I've bee trying to find the video you made where you might have a link for it. You refer to it as a 'tether' for the cable that comes off of the micro USB jack. Please let me know where I can get one. Thanks!
Do you know of a hack that can turn down the brightness lower then the default lowest setting? my eyes are quite light sensitive and would really love some way to make it darker, and should also improve contrast ;)
Have you tried turning on the battery saver mode? That lowers the brightness as well. Other than that you could look into sideloading apps which might give you access to the Android settings and it might go even lower.
Lots of cool things from that company. I myself would consider buying some. I did like the headset stand alot. Im hoping the quest will hit the market sometime next month. Looking forward to your reviews on it.
I put out a Quest video yesterday and I will definitely be doing more of these for the Quest when it's released. I'll be covering the Quest and the Go. 😉👍
WooHoo ! Christmas in February. I think I might get that stand. I seen a review on Amazon asking if the magnetic insert on the charge cord is removable once plugged into the Go. Any info on that?
Yeah the bit that goes into the Go is just a micro usb cable plug and pulls straight out. It's a tight fit, so it doesn't come out by mistake, but it does come back out no issues.
It won't work with that cover, as you need the VRCover interface from the Go VRCover to be able to attach it. You could add some velcro I guess, and it might work quite well. 🤔
Great video by the way can you get the charger separately as I already have a stand and really like the magnetic feature. Of the charger great vidieo love the stickers that came with it keep up the great work
Thanks. Search Amazon for magnetic micro usb cables and there are loads to choose from. They're useful for quickly charging and it pulls off if you're using it while charging and forget. 😉
Yup, late Xmas presents. 🎅👍 The slot on the left looks like a us plug slot, on the right might fit a battery could it would be lose, and the slot on the front fits an Xbox controller perfectly.
I'm currently bidding on a 64 gig go, kind of thinking maybe about a quest instead as i do have the money . Im a casual gamer though with a PS3 and dozens of titles gathering dust, that ive yet to play.
So I'm doing tech videos myself and I'll be posting a lot of different games that I'm playing how do you do the split screen or are you editing using something like OBS? And I know you can record with the Oculus Go but how do you download the firmware update for the operating system or does it need to be connected to pc? Cheers in advance.
You can't force firmware updates. It comes when it comes. I record gameplay via adb to my PC which doesn't capture sound (use xsplit to capture but OBS is the same). I then use a camera with a mic on top to capture my voice and the game sound. Then edit it all together in Adobe Premiere Pro.
@@RaMarcus ah cheers. Your doing some awesome work on here dude. I've not seen many TH-cam channels that do much reviews on Oculus and Oculus Go and everything else on the headsets. This is very handy and very informative too. Keep up the good work.
Nice video! I've wanted that stand for a while now. But my Oculus Go got fried yesterday... it was being charged and a power surge came through and bricked the headset! Apparently the surge protector had gone faulty and I didn't know... :( Currently working with Oculus Support to get a second, hopefully!
They came with each of the items and they don't seem to be selling them separately yet. Search Amazon and Ebay for eye stickers and you find lots of similar ones. 👍

That stand looks great!
Yeah, I'm using that for sure. Looks great with my RaMarcus Go on it. 😎👍
Hi nathie
Oooh. A box box of gadgets! I bet you loved going through that.

He offered a pound and when they laughed he said it was silly but asked them to check with the manager. We got them, and when we got home we spent a week going through them. It made me feel so happy.

The case holds the american two pin plug, and an xbox one controller. I think the spare round hole is for a power bank. I have it and its a great case.
Yeah I figured what those two holes were for, might have to ask them about that third one, power bank stick is a good suggestion. 🤔
Very cool love that wall hanger.
Yeah it's a great idea, might have to make room for it somewhere. 🤔
I really like the stand, case and decals. Will check their items out. The lens cover is an added bonus. 👍
Yeah it's all decent stuff and worth checking out if you can find them on Amazon etc.
Good evening ramarcus thank you for showing off the different VR accessories you received from AMVR. I am definitely interested in more videos like this. Have a good evening ramarcus.
Thanks mate, if I get more stuff I'll definitely cover it in more videos. 👍
Really enjoy your reviews. Nice VR stand btw...bought because of your review. I love it! And the right angle mag connector is awesome...thanks!
Always great to hear people like my reviews, bought something and still like my review. 😁
Got the same carry case. First thing i bought when i got my Go :) You can find all the products on Aliexpress
It's a nice case, fits an Xbox controller perfectly as well. 🎮👍
Very cool stuff for the OcGo! Thanks for a good review.
😀
😉👍
Like the idea of the wall mounted bracket brill
Yeah, I don't have a space for it but I am tempted to actually use it at events. Could be useful at events if I mount it to a board or a shelf unit. 🤔
Good video congrats on 8000 subs!
Cheers mate. 👍
Great video man 👍 I like the idea of stickers for each purchase of one of there products
Thanks and yeah it's a nice addition, I've got a load now, I'll have to think of a way to give them away. 🤔
I bought the AMVR case. It arrived a lot quicker than it said and is very very good. It's tough and has lots of room. I would highly recommend. Nice one Marcus mate.
Great to hear you like it as well. 😉👍
Thanks for the videos
Thank you for watching! 😉👍
Cheers

Yeah it's a very nice case, I keep my event Go in it with all the accessories, perfect. 👍
This is one sexy box of accessories for the Go!
😘👍
A sneeky peek😁
Love a box o' goods
Love a sneaky peak! 😁
Entertaining as always and great to see your subs climbing. Will be great channel for the Quest too.
Thanks mate, it's shaping up to be a fun year. 😉👍
These accessories are so cool
😎👍
The accessories do seem interesting i think the stand is the best
Yeah I'm using the stand. 😉👍
So many nice accessories!
It's raining plastic! ☔😅
I have that case for my Go. I love it! The power brick in the UK would never fit in the slot because they're huge.
That's true, it's more for a US power brick... We don't even get a power brick with a Go in the UK! 😢
Great Video as usual. Thanks for the info. Congrats on 8K !!!! Pretty soon the 10K barrier will be broken. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Dave, you've been there pretty much since the start so thank you for the support. 👍
@@RaMarcus just got 1 more, I forgot to click that button.
Legend 👍
The remote cover covers up the two buttons just below the touch pad
Yeah but you can still press them without an issue. 👍
do you think that new padding has more padding around the bridge of the nose?
It doesn't touch your nose, if you mean the light leak I would say it's about the same. It's better on your cheek bones though, more padded.
the one demo where you up on the top of a building looking down. And then your in a long hallway then then the dinosaur run by you
Wow i am so excited for you and me waiting for the oculus quest to be released this vr rocks.🤘
It's going to be an exciting year for sure. 😁👍
I think we'll fine out soon, the Quest is going to be at the GDC so lots of new info coming 👍
Great video as always! I really like the headset stands and skins, might have to buy some!
Thanks mate, the stand is great, it is something I'm getting some use out of for sure. 👍
Some interesting add-ons RaMarcus. I like the stand, storage case and replacement foam. Shame they are just on the USA Amazon store at the moment as import duty would add a bit. Having said that, I believe Amazon do calculate the due fees for sending to the UK and you pay them up front stopping the Royal Mail charging their £8 or so handling fee on top of the other charges!
Yeah, they've said they're going to try and get them on more Amazon stores and someone said they found the case on ebay UK. 🤔
Think that AMVR CASE is available on eBay for about £20 inc postage
That's not bad, it's a decent case with fitted insides and very nicely made. 👍
It's always great to see new accessories. But I see in this video a small but important bit and I've bee trying to find the video you made where you might have a link for it. You refer to it as a 'tether' for the cable that comes off of the micro USB jack. Please let me know where I can get one. Thanks!
It was 3D printed, you can search thingiverse.com for Oculus Go tether and you'll find it. 😉👍
Thanks RaMarcus for that amazingly fast reply!

I don't think we'll see the Quest untik April/May but I'll be all over it when it launches. 👍
You should do these sorts of videos like what to download and tips and tricks when the quest comes out you would get a lot more fans and exposure
I put out a Quest video yesterday and I will definitely be doing more of these for the Quest when it's released. I'll be covering the Quest and the Go. 😉👍

Is the cover better than that samsung cover you made a video about?
It won't work with that cover, as you need the VRCover interface from the Go VRCover to be able to attach it. You could add some velcro I guess, and it might work quite well. 🤔
The head set stand is on Amazon.co.uk for £27.99 right now :) Or at least very similar to that one of yours .
Bargain. 👍
Great video by the way can you get the charger separately as I already have a stand and really like the magnetic feature. Of the charger great vidieo love the stickers that came with it keep up the great work
Thanks. Search Amazon for magnetic micro usb cables and there are loads to choose from. They're useful for quickly charging and it pulls off if you're using it while charging and forget. 😉
RaMarcus I had a look and found one for around £12 or 15 dollars thanks for the tips
😉👍
RaMarcus Cheers
Goodies in the post always nice :) And I think you had a slot in that case for batteries. And would the wall mount be safe for people in Australia?
Yup, late Xmas presents. 🎅👍 The slot on the left looks like a us plug slot, on the right might fit a battery could it would be lose, and the slot on the front fits an Xbox controller perfectly.
SAFE ! NO! Australia is in the southern hemisphere.
@@ufos22 I mean from the sun down there, doesn't it face up? ;)
😂
Why does the silicon thing go over the buttons. Is it ment to be used when using the headset or is it just a cover to keep it in better shape
You can still press the buttons without an issue. 👍
I just got my quest. I notice that the first contact game, only has the intro. I was hoping for the demo of the dinosaurs
Demo with the dinosaurs? Which one are you referring to?
I have that case for my Oculus. Very satisfied, it holds an Xbox one controller. I didn't get stickers though!
No stickers? That's the best part... But the case is great, I agree. 👍
I'm currently bidding on a 64 gig go, kind of thinking maybe about a quest instead as i do have the money . Im a casual gamer though with a PS3 and dozens of titles gathering dust, that ive yet to play.
Try a Go and maybe sell it once the Quest is out of you want more from it. 😉
That all sounds great thank you you got a lot of stuff but don't take your pictures down
Thanks mate and I'll keep that in mind. 😉
I need those cat eyes!!
Jeepers, creepers, where you get those peepers? 👀👍
@@RaMarcus Cat person here (I love them but no, I don't bathe in my own lick) but I will get those eyes for my Go somehow.
If I see them about I'll let you know where. 👍

I‘ve got the same case!

Win win. 😉👍

Thanks for sharing. Greetings from James J in Limerick city Ireland
Greetings to you. 😁👍
Thanks for another great video.
😉👍
Sweeeeeeeeet 👌🏼

Lol, I just keep my Go in the box it came in.😀
Why'd you buy another Go?
I have a business of showing VR content to potential customers and just needed another. 😉👍
@@RaMarcus Oh, that's actually pretty cool! Good luck with that, I hope you get a lot of people into vr.
Thanks mate. 😉
“Strap on”. LOL
😉👍
Can anyone recommend any cool oculus go games for under £5? Just bought my headset, having a blast so far on firezone 😄
Slightly Heroes, Coaster Combat, Daedalus, Dreadhalls or The Well are all worth your money to name but a few. 👍
AltSpaceVR is an amazing free game, and Face Your Fears has some fun free stuff. Also, welcome to the world of VR! I hope you love it.
Wowwwwoowow

I don't have a strap on. Oooooooo suits you sir
Who doesn't like a good strap on? 😁
how do you get companies to send free stuff 😂
Ask nicely when you see they have them. Having a way to help them show off their products helps as they like that. 😉
