  • In today's video, I will be telling you about all the Quest 2 features that I think you should know about. I know there are a lot more of them but I did my best to choose the less obvious ones, the ones not everyone might know about opening the box. There are definitely a few interesting Oculus Quest 2 features here that I think will make using your device better for you. Some will even increase your performance and FPS! I hope you enjoy the video :D

    It's also nice to mention that the resolution mod can also work the other way and increase Performance with the CPU & GPU Level if you bring it down for a game where you might need that :)
    I also forgot to say, leave your favorite features or something you might want the new people to know down here :) I'm sure you guys know something I don't, there are so many!

      Regarding the Bluetooth headphones, if you have a pair that NEEDS an app to connect through and you can't connect them without the app at all, you might not be able to use it despite downloading the APK.
      I got a pair of B&o Beoplay E8 which I sideloaded the apk for, but even though they connected in the app and Bluetooth like normally, no audio came through. Although it could be me who just can't find a dedicated "audio source chooser" setting anywhere

    • @quickfixian

      Also, if you want to lay down and watch or play something(until Meta makes windows moveable anywhere on the quest itself), you can freely move windows with your screen around using airlink so you can lay down and watch anything with the screen above you. The PC version of the Oculus interface/hub has had completely freely moveable windows for years.
      I remember back in the day with my CV1 Rift I got my roommate to play World of Warcraft laying down in my bed with the keyboard and mouse on his side and the window straight above him. His reaction was priceless

    • @trackab7916
      @trackab7916 2 года назад +3

      The fov depends on your eyes and where they are on your face, people who wear glasses see about 72° and people with ideal eyes see upto 92°

    The Quest 2 charger is 5V/2A. Many budget battery banks tend to be 5V/1A output, while QC 3.0 is 4x the output of 5V/1A. So any battery with an output of 5V/2A or greater should work fine.

      ​@@muhammadujaama631 Alyx truly crushes all other games. don´t forget to play community mod campaigns in Alyx like C17YSCAPE or Return to Rapture (2nd part coming very soon). Other than that I recommend The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners, Medal of Honor, Boneworks, Subnautica, or even just some Walkabout Minigolf with friends. Of course no game comes close to Alyx sadly. But imo even a crappy looking Population One is more fun than the 989078th CoD on Flatscreen.

      I run mine with a wifi 5 router and am like 30 feet from it on another floor of my house. The only thing that makes my performance worse is if I unplug my ethernet from my pc.

    • @MotoCat91
      @MotoCat91 2 года назад +2

      WiFi 6 (with MIMO) routers are great, but if you only have WiFi 5 then it may be a little too congested.
      I had this problem and my main router just cannot handle it at all, it glitches out every 3-5 seconds and is totally unusable
      But, I had an old WiFi 5 router that I got free from my internet provider a few years back which is now my dedicated Quest access point. (TP Link vr1600v, people are selling these new here for like $60 and second hand down to $20-30)
      My PC uses WiFi to connect to the main house router for internet (not practical to run a cable)
      Then I plugged a 2ft long ethernet cable from my PC into this extra router and placed it on top of my PC, only enabling the 5GHz network. From my PC's perspective I now have 2 network connections, one with internet and one without.
      When I connect my Quest to this new dedicated access point it complains about having no internet access, but then I either AirLink or Virtual Desktop to my PC and any apps that run ON the PC have full internet access.
      It's a weird setup but works great for SteamVR, and I have no issues playing HL:Alyx or VRChat which are my two main games lately

If you're worried can't make wired connections work. Try this before buying anything else

The ones I have show the actual battery percentage so I know where it's at exactly. I usually don't play long enough to go through the battery but close sometimes. If I want to continue playing after short break I just exchange the portable battery for the fully charged one. Definitely recommend

    I have never found a power-bank that has been able to 'charge' my Quest mid-play. Regardless, it reduces the drain of the battery so significantly, that with a 10,000Mah battery, I can extend the life of my Quest from its 2-3 hours to around 8+, even with the draining of the Quest's battery itself.
    It's still worth it to get a head strap with a battery pack regardless if it charges or not, because being wireless is part of what makes the Quest 2 so handy.

      Anker power banks with a quality cable work

    • @AlexTheStampede
      @AlexTheStampede 2 года назад

      It's relatively power hungry, so you want a decent power bank. I have an old 20 amp Anker that has 2 usb ports, one supports Quick Charge (the Qualcomm standard) while the other dosen't: the one without can't keep up the charge for the Quest 2... or the Oculus Go. The other? Meh, the Quest can be drained and it will still charge it while in use. However nowadays USB C is a thing, so if buying a power bank just get one that supports Power Delivery.
      There's one thing about the Quest that is probably confusing, if you're using it it won't charge fully! Very much a software choice they made likely to extend the life of the battery, but it will stop around 75% and it's not a matter of power as it might be idle on the main menu or in a game and it will just sit there.

      If I used an external battery I sure wouldn't put it on my headset, the added weight would drive me crazy. I would get a 4 ft cable and put the external battery in a fanny pack or something similar...

    • @nanakixiii3
      @nanakixiii3 2 года назад +1

      @@Bob_Suruncle I have a fat head for my 100000 IQ brain, so the additional weight on the back helps balance things out. The front headset can sometimes be a bit weighty and pull down my nose, so having a power bank that acts as a counter-weight is important to me. It's all preference.
      But if your after-market headstrap can properly hold everything together, then using a 4ft cable for your power bank and keeping it in a pocket works too. Just be mindful not to get your hands or arms caught in it.

    I have now had mine a bit under a month. I am so glad I decided to go for it (and that I had a family member willing to let me use their FB, as mine no longer exists due to some issues FB had with my legal vs display name a few years ago). I am eagerly awaiting the conversion to Meta accounts or whatever they do to purchase one for a friend!

    on the powerbank thing: if your powerbank fully charges your quest, your quest will stop charging, and your powerbank will turn off.
    by the time you notice, your power could have dropped significantly, but all you need to do it either re-plug the powerbank, or press the charging button on it to wake up the battery pack and restart charging.
