When the Oculus Quest 2 came out people were beyond excited. They didn’t know what to expect. They were hoping for it to be something revolutionary. When it first came out on October 20, 2020, the VR headset did not fail to impress, this absolute piece of high-tech gear made it one of the best and most affordable VR headsets for only $300.
But why was this headset so good and powerful? Well because it is the first VR headset that does not require a computer to run, it is all in the headset which is why the Oculus is so special. When Meta was first developing the Oculus they knew they needed positional tracking that was precise, accurate, and available In real-time. So they decided to use the Oculus Insight a powerful piece of hardware that powers the Quest and the Rift S.
The controllers are made to optimize comfort while making the sensors as accurate as possible. The audio is crisp and uses positional sound which makes the experience overall more immersive.
