Review on Oculus Rift S VR System, 2560x1440, 80Hz, Black by Wiktor Skowroski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

In most cases, buying is what you should do. The entertainment value is through the roof. Around 1.5 x 2 meters of space is available. Value-wise, it's hard to beat the price of these toys. (purchased in March for $36) Being my first time, I had nothing to base my happiness on. Time passes quickly because of the ongoing "WOW" impact brought on by the introduction of virtual reality. There is no need for any improvements; the construction is solid, the plastic is easy on the hands, the picture is excellent, the sound is satisfactory, and the microphone is as well. Laughs with the gang, and a surplus of playthings I've got a con: Official technical help is quite lacking, and you cannot connect. Due to a first installation failure that lasted quite some time, an older version of the software is required. Reddit was the only place that solved my connectivity, installation, and graininess issues. The controllers' battery life rapidly deteriorated; the right controller, after a while (a month or two), is now almost constantly discharged; each new connection necessitates switching to a new battery, at which point the charge shows a minimum and is reduced after a while; the left controller, in contrast, maintains a more constant level of charge. When playing certain games, motion sickness makes prolonged participation impossible. All virtual reality helmets have this same issue, most likely. The lenses fog up during intense play, so I wipe them with a tissue. Sunlight cannot be used to illuminate the glasses, thus drapes must be drawn across the window. Also, you need to turn on the lights because he can't always see your controller movements in the dark.
