Review on High-Quality Black 10ft/3m USB C 3.2 Gen1 Cable - KIWI design Link Cable for Oculus Quest 2 by John Larsen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Medium length, medium weight.

The 3m (10ft) cable certainly gives you some independence, it's not as heavy as some other cables (including the 16ft cable I bought). You're still reminded that you're tethered, but 3m is a bit short for room-scale use and only a minor inconvenience when seated. I used it to connect my Quest 2 directly to the USB-A 3.0 port on my monitor, which has a USB 3.0 hub. Testing on the Oculus desktop app (Win 10) ranged from 1.5 Gbps to 2.2 Gbps. While I'm not sure where this variability is coming from, it seems to be enough to keep Valve's Alyx running smoothly. Incidentally, this is the same range as the other cable (with a USB-C 3.2 connector) that returned when plugged directly into my RTX card's USB port. So this seems to be the limit of the headset. (The cable is only needed to project a PC game onto Oculus, and the latter doesn't participate in rendering like the original Rift.)

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
