This can do anything that the Sony PS-VR can do, but better. This can do anything that the HTC Vive can do, but better. This can do anything that the Oculus Quest 1 can do, but better.

Pros

  • Amazing 3D sound
  • Beginner friendly
  • Good graphics
  • High refresh-rate
  • Great when connected to a PC
  • Non-existent eye strain

Cons

  • Controller drift
  • Limited built-in games

- It's cheaper than the HTC Vive Focus 3 (according to Turkish conditions) - Quest 2 is a wireless VR headset, and you don't even need a computer because it has its own built-in hardware. The screen quality is better compared to older VRs; for example, you don't see pixels. - If the screen looks blurry to you, try adjusting the lenses, it may then look better to you. (of course, you need to clean the lenses with a microfiber cloth)

Pros

  • Adjustable IPD (lens)
  • No visible pixels
  • Text is readable
  • The image is not blurry
  • Wirelessly connectable to computer (over AirLink)
  • Computer is optional
  • Can be connected to PC via link cable (also works with cable supporting 3m data transfer)
  • You don't have to deal with sensors
  • Compatible with other accessories

Cons

  • Due to the Type C part of the link cable being on the left side of the device, the cable can get tangled around you
  • It would be better if there was something to gather the cable on the headband

Design

weight

503 g

We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry. A lower weight is also an advantage for home appliances, as it makes transportation easier, and for many other types of products.
Can be used wirelessly
Meta Quest 2
Wireless devices allow users more freedom of movement.
adjustable IPD
Meta Quest 2
Interpupillary distance (IPD) is the distance between the center of your eyes. Without adjustable IPD, the lenses of a VR headset may not line up with your pupils, which can result in eye strain and nausea.
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
An indicator shows you when the device has low battery.
thickness

142.5 mm

The thickness (or depth) of the product.
height

102 mm

The height represents the vertical dimension of the product.
volume

2783.45 cm³

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
maximum operating temperature

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The maximum temperature at which the device can perform to the optimal level.

Display & Lenses

The size of the screen (measured diagonally).
resolution

3664 x 1920 px

Resolution is an essential indicator of a screen's image quality, representing the maximum amount of pixels that can be shown on the screen. The resolution is given as a compound value, comprised of horizontal and vertical pixels.
A wider field of view assures an immersive and realistic experience.
The frequency at which the display is refreshed (1 Hz = once per second). A higher refresh rate results in smoother UI animations and video playback.
The type of technology used in the display.
Has adjustable lenses
Meta Quest 2
With adjustable lenses, the device can assure a sharp and clear image for a wide range of users, including users who usually wear glasses.
Has a display
Meta Quest 2
The device has an electronic display to present information to the user.
lens diameter

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

Lenses with a bigger diameter offer better image quality.
Pixel density is a measurement of a screen's resolution, expressed as the number of pixels per inch (PPI) on the screen. A higher pixel density translates into more clarity and sharpness for the images rendered on the screen, thus improving the quality of the viewing experience.

Performance

CPU speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
RAM

6GB

Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of memory used to store working data and machine code. Having more RAM is particularly useful for multitasking, allowing you to run more programs at once or have more tabs open in your browser.
The internal storage refers to the built-in storage space available in a device for system data, apps, and user-generated data. With a large amount of internal storage, you can save more files and apps on your device.
The device has a standard memory slot (such as an SD or micro SD card slot) that enables you to extend the built-in internal storage with affordable memory modules, or easily retrieve data, such as photographs, from the memory card.

Tracking

Tracks head movement
Meta Quest 2
As your head moves, the images move in real-time, assuring a realistic experience.
has a gyroscope
Meta Quest 2
A gyroscope is a sensor that tracks the orientation of a device, more specifically by measuring the angular rotational velocity. Initially, they were built using a spinning rotor to detect changes in orientation, like twisting or rotation.
Has position tracking
Meta Quest 2
The device can track your position in space and warn you if you are about to hit something.
The headset has multiple sensors and cameras that assure low latency tracking for 360° movements.
has an accelerometer
Meta Quest 2
An accelerometer is a sensor used to measure the linear acceleration of a device. A common application is detecting when a device changes between vertical and horizontal positions.
Has gesture control
Meta Quest 2
The gesture control function allows you to manipulate virtual objects.
tracking area

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.

The area of the surface that can be used for VR or AR simulations. A larger tracking area allows you more freedom of movement.
Has an infrared sensor
Meta Quest 2
With an infrared sensor the device can detect motion by measuring the infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view.
The device can track the movement of your eyes and your gaze, making it easy to interact with the content.

Connectivity

Has USB Type-C
Meta Quest 2
The USB Type-C features reversible plug orientation and cable direction.
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
It is compatible with a range of Android devices such as smartphones and tablets.
