When you actually use it, you can see that the weight reduction is not that great (about 10%), but the depth is clearly shorter than the first generation and is a bit smaller.
The headband is made of resin that can be held firmly and fabric like GO seems to be her favorite, but the Quest 2 is made of fabric and can be carried more compactly.
An optional solid headband is also available, as well as a battery-powered headband that balances the weight with an additional battery on the back of the head.
IPD adjustment is a method of physically moving the lens cap portion directly with your finger instead of the lever. You can choose from three 58.63.68mm stages.
The included USB-C cable is not the long, flexible and sturdy L-shaped connector that came with the first generation, but a white general cable. Even if I bought the 1st gen recently, I’m glad I got this cable! You may be able to think. (USB 2.0 but can also be used for Oculus Link).
Good points. The USB-C terminal on the side of the main unit is horizontal instead of vertical. So if you point to the original L-shaped connector, the cable will stretch out to the side instead of hanging directly underneath.
The power to increase the resolution is enormous. As soon as I turn on and see the O logo, I suddenly hear that the grid effect of seeing the pixel gaps has improved significantly.
It’s not completely invisible, but it’s a huge improvement over the original and other Oculus headsets.
Game characters, apps, and user interface are clearly easy to read, and video streaming apps like Netflix are finally down to the level of being viewed properly.
