    Should i buy the 64 or the 256?

      In my opinion the 256 cus its 400 which is cheap then the original quest so you should buy 256 gig one but if your not a gamer and you want something casual get the 64 bit one

    look Facebook is cutting the cost of the material they are using to make the Quest, they have increased the cost of the hardware and software that means at 299 Facebook will be taking a tremendous loss in revenue how do you think they’re going to make that revenue back. by selling any information they can acquire from you by making you create a Facebook account. to create a Facebook account you have to give things like email address and other optional information, which they will sell. you would have to be ignorant not to be able to see that

    why are you misrepresenting the fact that oculus gives you the ability to connect both quest and quest 2 to your pc to play pc titles like those with steamvr? bad review.

    dude 64 gigs is more than enough because the only time you will need 268 gigs is when you wanna buy the entire store also what you can do is make a facebook acount and never use it brah its not really that hard i did that and i dont do nothing with it

    Hi, I was wondering if you can connect oculus link for the Quest 2 with the charging cable the headset comes with like the current Quest? I have the current Quest and I can just use my charging cable, no separate cable needed to be bought. But so far for the Quest 2 all I’ve seen is the $80 oculus Link cable being advertised heavily. My friend is pre-ordering it now and wondering if he needs to buy a separate cable. If so, does it need to be 3.0? Or can it be 2.0 like the current quest?
