All information about the Oculus Quest 2

The Oculus Quest 2 headset comes with a slick white design and is powered by a battery that is easily rechargeable with the included USB C charger. Not only that, but the headset also comes with a 3.5 headphone jack which allows the user to directly get their sound output from the headset itself.

To go along with the headset, the Oculus Quest 2 also comes with a motion-sensing controller for each hand. In addition, the controller has hand-tracking capabilities, allowing it to accept input from hand motions like a simple pinch as a click.

As for storage, the Oculus Quest 2 comes with two variants: 64 GB and 128 GB, and is powered by a Snapdragon XR2. The headset has a 1920-by-1832 pixel resolution which is a bit higher than its predecessor and has a 90 Hertz refresh rate.

The only problem the Oculus Quest 2 has is its limited battery life, which can be extended with the additional battery pack that comes with Quest 2 Elite Strap. Furthermore, players can purchase the $79 Oculus Link Cable, which allows them to use Oculus PC to get access to the Steam VR store, giving them more options on games.
