It's just one of those things with the price algorithms. It is probably assumed that buyers are prepared to pay more for the old model due to the poor availability of the Quest 3 512 GB. But I absolutely agree with you and hope that nobody falls for it.
Hey KjellS661
The Quest 3 will be available for pre-order. The item already exists, you can put it on the watch list to be informed as soon as the item is available for order: Meta Quest 3 128 GB - now ready for order
No, why should you? You download the games directly from the app store of the Meta via WLAN to the glasses and they are installed there in the memory of the glasses.
Are you using Air-Link or the USB cable?
I've had the latter for a week and it works much better than without the cable. However, I sometimes have connection problems...
What you can try is to open the Oculus OculusDebugTool ("C:\Program Files\Oculus\Support\oculus-diagnostics") and then turn on the console. Here you can also activate the Performance HUD, then you will see details about performance and connection.
Yes, you can connect to Steam and play all Steam VR games with it. Just connect it to your PC via cable or WiFi, then it's a "classic" VR goggle like Rift etc. and works with Steam VR.
Unfortunately, I don't know. The glasses have their own memory onto which the games etc. are loaded. Therefore, no other equipment is needed. All games are downloaded and purchased online via the glasses. YouTube etc. can also be accessed directly via the glasses.
We published an article on this yesterday: https://www.digitec.ch/de.... According to https://www.oculus.com/blog..., the official sales launch is planned for the end of October. Unfortunately, we do not yet have any exact information on how soon we will be able to offer this.
The best thing to do is to contact our customer service directly at https://helpcenter.digitec.ch/hc.... Your request can then be examined individually.
Hello Marc, as far as I know, this function has been deactivated on both Oculus Quests, so that you can watch films etc. via a USB stick. You can either download the films to the Quest 2 via the Sidequest tool or directly from the PC via a USB cable to the Quest 2. You can also stream from the PC with the Link cable or Air Link. If you record videos with the Oculus, you can also save them to your PC with the Sidequest tool. The Oculus is actually like an Android smartphone. With the app Bigscreen you can watch the films like in the cinema. There are many tutorials on YouTube, also in German, I can recommend the YouTube channel "Die Zock Stube VR" or "Voodoo DE VR". You just have to google a bit... good luck and have fun with the Oculus Quest 2. greetings Holdino
Hey FamousLoon,
Since the VR glasses are from Facebook, a Facebook account is currently still necessary, but according to some sources this will probably change this year.
In my opinion it's not the headset that's the problem but rather you don't know how to use it or you haven't had any other experience with other vr headsets. It's not a 4k monitor it's 2 tiny screens, no wonder it's not a computer monitor. I'm not sure if it's the same as a computer monitor or not, but it's not.
