About this deal

The Quest 2's TV app also let me ride a virtual rollercoaster, which had my adrenaline surging and almost made me wimp out before I remembered I was sitting at my desk. The Spatial app provides an impressively robust virtual workspace for collaborating on documents and 3D models. Meanwhile, the Virtual Desktop app allowed me to use my Windows 10 PC in an immersive VR environment. Meta Quest 2: Audio There may still be a few 64GB units floating around at some stores, probably at the same price as the 128GB replacement models, so make sure you're getting the larger unit before you buy. Do you need a PC for Meta Quest 2? Another awesome single-player game is Resident Evil 4 VR, which will add The Mercenaries mode as free DLC in 2022.

Things have changed since last year when it comes to the world of VR, with the release of the PSVR 2, the launch of Meta Quest 3, and the reveal of the Apple Vision Pro. While it's not the latest model, the Quest 2 is still well worth buying since it has years of successful support behind it and a vast library of games to try out. It's certainly the headset to try out if you're looking to step into virtual reality for a reasonable price. The Quest 3 is an all-around fantastic headset that improves almost everything I like about the Quest 2 without changing the overall design and ease of use I've grown accustomed to. It's twice as powerful as the Quest 2, the pancake lenses give the headset a slimmer profile, and the passthrough camera looks incredible. The headset measures at 224mm x 450mm. The weight of Quest 2 is 503 grams, making the headset 68 grams lighter than its predecessor (Quest 1). The Meta Quest 2 is rated for 2 to 3 hours of battery life: 2 if you’re playing games, and around 3 if you’re mostly watching videos. I found this to be largely in my line with my testing, as I only had to plug the Quest 2 in every few days while using it in small chunks. After several sessions playing games on a fully charged Meta Quest 2 for more than an hour, I found that the battery was around 50% drained by the time I finished. Meta Quest 2: AccessoriesLike the original Quest, the Meta Quest 2 is an all-in-one VR system that doesn’t require you to set up any external sensors or cameras — everything you need is right in the headset. The setup process only takes a few minutes; you’ll put the headset on, activate your account via the Oculus mobile app, establish your play area, and you’re good to go. You will receive a VR headset, two touch controllers, two AA batteries, a silicone cover, glasses spacer, charging cable and power adapter. For some people, this bundle might not be for you. Meta introduced Oculus Air Link in 2020, allowing you to play PC VR games over your wireless network wireless. And while the latency is slightly higher, it’s just as good as using the Link cable for most, doesn’t cost any extra money, and a cord doesn’t get in your way. Oculus Link Cable The Meta Quest 2’s built-in positional audio isn’t new — it also appeared on the Quest and Rift S — but it still blows my mind every time I use it. The headset’s built-in speakers pump out crisp, loud sound without the need for headphones, with some impressive directionality to boot. I could hear where the buzzes of nearby bees and chirps of birds were coming from while hanging out in my home screen oasis, and could easily pinpoint enemy fire while blasting away in Pistol Whip.

On the other hand, things might be a little more fluid if you're after accessories and games. We're seeing regular sales on the Meta store itself if you're after something to play, and we may well see some extra price drops on head straps and charging accessories over the next few weeks as well. These offers may not be as solid as those later in November, but you'll still be able to save some cash before the crowds descend.

If you plan on playing longer sessions or switching out with family and friends, then grab this Quest 2 battery bundle today. It includes the BOBOVR M2 elite strap, which is the number one rated third-party head strap for the Quest 2. It’s more comfortable than the default soft strap and easy to put on and take off. The Meta Quest 2 is much more than a gaming device, with a healthy selection of entertainment and productivity apps that let you watch videos and collaborate with others in cool ways. I looked around in awe as I virtually stood at the top of Mount Everest in a 360-degree YouTube VR video, and was surrounded by the mesmerizing percussion of the Blue Man Group when watching their virtual concert in the Oculus TV app (now the Meta Quest TV app). The Quest platform has amassed an impressively solid game lineup that runs the gamut from new takes on established AAA franchises to exciting indie titles that make full use of the Meta Quest 2's VR abilities.

Do the incredible together - from almost anywhere

Just glancing at the list of best VR games you can experience right now is enough to tempt anyone to invest in a new headset. Of course, it's worth bearing in mind you'll need a decent PC setup to get the most out of your time in VR. The Meta Quest 2’s built-in microphone proved dependable as well. I had no problem coordinating with a friend as we tossed around bad guys in Path of the Warrior, and his voice sounded crisp and clear coming from his own Quest 2. Meta Quest 2: Battery life Come together in incredible social spaces and multiplayer arenas as you take in live events with friends and family, find your new workout crew or join quests with fellow adventurers It also supports Quest Air Link, wirelessly allowing the headset to tether itself to a gaming PC. If most of your VR games are on Steam, you're beaming those games from the PC to the Quest headset with little to no loss of quality and latency. Sit front row with friends and family at movies and live events, find your new workout crew or join quests with fellow adventurers. Access over 1,000 titles in the Quest library by connecting your VR headset to a gaming-compatible computer (PC and cable sold separately).

META QUEST IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE https://www.oculus.com/quest-2/removable-facial-interface-alert. The On-Ear Audio Strap by KIWI is a top-rated elite strap for the Quest 2 that is an upgrade over the basic soft strap. It distributes the headset’s weight better to be more comfortable on your face.Be truly free to roam in VR with a wireless headset, intuitive controls, a built-in battery, easy setup and no PC or console needed* I’m slightly disappointed that the Touch Controllers run on AA batteries, and aren’t rechargeable via USB. Still, each controller uses only a single battery, and both of my controllers are shown as having full battery capacity on my Quest interface after several weeks of use. The controllers are rated to offer around 30 hours of juice on a single battery. You can access over 1,000 titles in the Rift library by connecting your Meta Quest 2 VR headset to a gaming-compatible computer (PC and cable sold separately). Let your friends and family into your VR world by casting your experience to compatible TVs and other screens. And anywhere you go in the real world, you can take your lightweight, portable Quest 2 with you.* As a Star Wars nerd, I completely geeked out on Vader Immortal, a first-person action-adventure game that had me sneaking around imperial strongholds and engaging in tight lightsaber combat. And I absolutely loved Pistol Whip, a neon-drenched arcade shooter that had me popping headshots and dodging enemy fire to the beat of pulsing EDM music. Take away 8GB or so for the system files, and the 128GB headset will offer up enough space for around 34 titles of this size, jumping up to 70 for the 256GB model. If you've already got a shopping list that exceeds that former figure, or you're more likely to be playing larger titles it's well worth upgrading. However, the vast majority of users won't find value in spending more on storage they aren't going to ultimately use.
