This is a truly ground-breaking device for VR. The price is acceptable for the experience you get from it and after attending the Oculus Connect 6 via Oculus Venues in VR, I think there is a bright future ahead. This is not just a toy or a gaming platform. This is a new way to consume content, be it surfing the net, socializing online, watching movies or YouTube and of course playing games. Oculus Connect 6 Day One presentations showed the business sector has some uses for it as well. Getting it now, is getting head start to the future of the media creation and consumption.
As for the quality of the device itself – it is my first VR device (Google Mobile VR not counting) so I have nothing to compare it to and perhaps this is a good thing. I understand that the graphic quality is not up to par with the Rift and Vive counterparts, but what it has is enough for the brain to be completely fooled into believing the virtual environments it creates. It’s not just my opinion. I took it to work and half my office ordered one the same day. They all were blown away. This ability alone, to take it on the road, anywhere is worth its money already.
I’ve read that it felt heavy for some people but I didn’t notice it at all, neither has my wife and my 11-years old kid. The little one 6-years old did complain a bit. The sound quality could be better though again we didn’t mind. I bought special earbud earplugs for it (not the original as they are quite expansive) and it, apparently, didn’t make that much of a difference. I understand that quality earphones for Oculus Quest have not materialized yet on the market.
I really recommend this product and I really recommend reading about what Facebook and Oculus has in their mind for its future (hands tracking in software, completely free in November 2019). This is a great purchase for anyone. A glimpse into the future and fantastic entertainment value for its money.

Wow!!! Its the very first word that i said as i put on this headset. Amazing Product, and Delivery time was also great. And product reaches me fine and is working great. Amazing graphics quality and with the latest update Quest is getting better and better. Tho it has some pros and cons. You dont need high end Gaming pc for playing VR games now. No need of wire and external sensors. Now you have gurdian mode in which one can see if hes crossing the line and camera will open up so that you wont hit any object in real life. Pixels are fine. Controller tracking are good as well. Cons will be like product too much costly as i know its not available in india and import duties are expensive. You need to buy games in Oculus store only free demo of games will be provided. Games price ranges from 9$ to 29$. Front heavy but with some modding it can be work. Now you can play PC steam VR gaming with the use of Oculus link cable, so its a standalone headset as well as pc headset as well. Its a bit expensive in india but i like the purchase that i made. Great and Amazing product.

This is a fantastic product and heaps of fun for the whole family. We were thinking of upgrading our PlayStation and decided to get this instead and we are so glad we did as it’s brilliant and I wished I had brought it sooner!!
You cant go wrong with getting an Oculus Quest , we use it nearly every day and its been awesome during the COVID Crisis as we have connect up and played games with our children that live in other areas.

So I’ve used all the big VR devices up to this point and I feel the Quest is the beginning of where the mass market can finally get into them.
Having it be wireless reduces all the setup that’s normally associated with any headset. Convenience goes a long way.
Comfort
While the PSVR is my vote for most comfortable headset, primarily cause of the weight distribution and how airy the inside feels, the quest fits nice and feel solid. I got a little warm after about 2 hours of playing, my forehead was sweating after running around my living room beating up robots. But it felt appropriate, not too hot, just sweat from playing an active game.
Image Quality and Performance
The quest had no noticable screen door effect, one of my biggest issues with the Vive, and throughout my initial play sessions never had a stutter or graphic issue. It played nice and smooth. I didn’t feel sick. And more demanding games like Robo recall ran flawlessly.
Tracking
Flawless. Hands, head, and room. No issues with any. Makes room vr sensors seem prehistoric. And from opening the box to being in a game took maybe 4 minutes (excluding a software update that took about 5 minutes).
Features
One of the most interesting built in features is casting. I can send the headset image to my phone, and then to other devices, with just the hit of a button. You can also record and other things. That’s very nice when you’re showing someone who is less familiar with VR, since you can follow along with them on your phone. Also probably good if you’re into streaming and all that.
Sound
I think I’ll end up buying the official oculus headphones. Not cause the sound isnt good, it is, but because I want to play quieter. The speakers are pretty loud.
And as a final note, I get about 2.5 hours of playtime before deciding to charge it. It comes with a very long USBC cable and works well with battery packs.
My only complaint so far is the battery slider on the controllers is in a very.. weird spot. And they can slide if you’re gripping too hard and jerk around. Not a deal breaker, just weird. Easily fixed with a tiny piece of tape or something. Or not holding the controller in a way that could cause the battery case to slide open.

You will find better quality VR gear but this one has no wires or towers – it makes room scale that much more immersive when you don’t have to think about a tether. Oculus Quest feels like a VR gaming console mixed with a VR version of your Android smartphone. The dashboard is very fun and snappy to “shoot at” with the controllers. It’s very immersive.
Setup using the phone was quick and easy. I made an Oculus account and skipped linking it to Facebook because I don’t use it. It also let me skip the credit card info which is good because I’m not ready to buy anything else just yet. Then the phone put the headset into update mode and it was done minutes later. The Quest came pre-loaded with quite a few demos to try which was nice. None of the games gave me motion sickness, but the joystick movement and buggy looking menu system in Rec Room eventually got to me. I had to take the headset off for a bit to settle the stomach before jumping back in.
The only major con I have been experiencing is with the lenses, apparently the smudgey look in them is normal so I have accepted it as a first-gen limitation of the manufacturing process, it’s not usually that noticeable but it’s annoying when it is. The headset makes you see things as though they are further away so I had to use contact lenses as a near-sighted person. The headset has enough room for my small rectangle glasses as well but big round glasses don’t fit. There is definitely a screen door effect but it’s also not very noticeable while you are moving around gaming. Being able to watch TV in VR is very cool and useful but the visual experience is degraded because of the lenses and the screen door effect and in no way compares to regular TV quality. Making the VR TV enormous helps though and laying down and watching on the ceiling is crazy.
Overall I have had a ton of fun and, despite its flaws, it feels well worth the price for entry VR. I wasn’t sure if this would be a keep or a return since VR is still so early but I’m totally hooked now.

Excelente headset de VR la posibilidad de jugar de forma inalámbrica es genial y con occulus link puedes jugar en la PC los mejores juegos de VR especialmente el Half Life Alyx que es la mejor experiencia en videojuegos y realidad virtual hasta el momento. Después de jugar al Half Life Alyx ya no querrás jugar de la forma anticuada, los gráficos lucen espectaculares y además el contenido para adultos en VR es una experiencia inolvidable que paga por sí solo el headset.
Recomendado ampliamente lo único malo del Quest es que es pesado y muy incómodo para usar sobre todo comparado con el Rift S pero comprando los accesorios para hacer el “Frankenquest” queda espectacular y súper cómodo de usar con el mejor sonido, Los puedes conseguir aquí mismo en Amazon.
Vale la pena comprarlo para tener Mobilidad y PC VR pero considera hacer el Frankenquest y te darás cuenta que hasta la fecha tendrás el mejor headset con el mejor confort y sonido del mercado hasta el momento.

Amazing product, easy to use. Refresh rate drop compared to original rift is true, can get a little dizzy after prolonged usage, but overall product is great!
