    VR needs to be wireless with built in hardware to be viable for most people. The tech isnt there yet for a really powerful VR headset that doesnt use a computer but it will be eventually. IF they throw something like a m1 chip in there it would be very capable

    Quest 2 is $1000 in Nz haha

    I have been tempted for the last few years but never actually bought one. I felt like it’s not ready yet. If I get one, it will definitely be the Oculus2 so I can try it out without spending a lot.

  5. Peer vanGeldrop on March 29, 2022 at 6:10 pm

    He keeps saying PC VR…so do they work on PS(5)?



  6. Aeyesi on March 29, 2022 at 6:10 pm

    If you got a PC … DONT buy qust 2…



  7. Ranger x Turbo on March 29, 2022 at 6:14 pm

  8. imtheoperator TTV on March 29, 2022 at 6:14 pm

    I hate those wands that come with the pro 2, they just feel wonky and strange tbh



  9. bjean on March 29, 2022 at 6:14 pm

  10. SuperSmallwater on March 29, 2022 at 6:15 pm

  11. bjean on March 29, 2022 at 6:15 pm

    I am so confused because I am so old!! My son wants vr for Xmas. We have xbox1



  12. Average Man on March 29, 2022 at 6:15 pm

    It depends how you use the headsets, for me I’ll probably be bringing it to a friends or just playing at home so Oculus quest 2 is the best choice for me



  13. lmao on March 29, 2022 at 6:17 pm

    DONT GET THE ELITE HEAD STRAP ITS A TICKING TIME BIMB U TIL IT BREAKS AFTER A FEW MONTHS



  14. OutOfBox on March 29, 2022 at 6:18 pm

  15. UMP-45 on March 29, 2022 at 6:19 pm

    So the vive pro 2, steam valve controllers, and valve base station is the way to go?



  16. Null on March 29, 2022 at 6:19 pm

    Forgot to mention the game library for each? Or just left out



  17. Kingkhan0440 on March 29, 2022 at 6:19 pm

    So should I get a vive pro 2 headset with the valve controllers and base stations for the best vr experience or get like a standard vive pro and valve controllers and base stations



  18. Mark M on March 29, 2022 at 6:20 pm

    Facebook data harvesting of my personal life? No thank you



  19. Segen on March 29, 2022 at 6:21 pm

    Quest 2 can not play pc games. So you are limited to what facebook allows you to play. How can you then say its great?



  20. Kuelinha on March 29, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    Hi! I’m incredibly new to the vr gaming experience and I want to ask, I will get my first vr headset and I want it to be very good and durable, and people say the oculus vr 2 quest is the best, but I want
    to ask, is this oculus quest 2 good for people who are really into gaming and play a lot? I also want to ask if the battery time of the headset is worth it, because I see ppl saying it’s 2 hours and other
    ppl say there are better ones…anyways, I just want to know if the battery time is worth it for someone who loves to play games and usually spends a lot of time in it. (Also I’m a pc user with a pretty good pc if that helps for someone who is answering)



  21. BigTurtle on March 29, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    Hello! i love the video and I want to get VR headset, but I don’t know how much gb it need to have?



  22. Nachoman68tg on March 29, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    What game is he playing at 6:21 it seems familiar but I can’t name it



  23. Adam on March 29, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    What headset would you guys recommend for blender? Don’t care about games just wanna go into my scenes : D



  24. JOKER on March 29, 2022 at 6:24 pm

    Why don’t they make something like Sony’s personal 3D viewer?



  25. Chris on March 29, 2022 at 6:27 pm

    I have an OG rift, a Reverb G2, and a Quest 2… I love VR but I think I’m done with it until we get haptic gloves and move away from controllers with buttons on them. I’m not interested in pressing buttons anymore or having to hold on to anything. I want to naturally use my hands. It feels like we should be there already but for some reason we aren’t.



  26. Chris Osterby on March 29, 2022 at 6:28 pm

    Can you use the vive pro 2 with PS5? And can you use controllers from another brand with that vive?



  27. Flopp on March 29, 2022 at 6:29 pm

    Getting the oculus quest 2

  29. King's Mill on March 29, 2022 at 6:32 pm

    Can you mix different headsets with the valve finger tracking



  30. YRT Racing Team on March 29, 2022 at 6:32 pm

    2:50 how about prescription glasses? Can you wear these in vr glasses? Thanks in advance



  31. Jesus is my Savior 🙏 on March 29, 2022 at 6:33 pm

    Just got my Oculus quest 2 and I have no complaints



  32. Karma loves Ecks on March 29, 2022 at 6:36 pm

    You mean best of 2021



  33. Felipe Vitorino on March 29, 2022 at 6:40 pm

  36. erick walter butler on March 29, 2022 at 6:45 pm

    great video super informative and not too long, thanks!



  37. Jessie Newman on March 29, 2022 at 6:46 pm

    Was all in on getting an Oculus Quest 2, but just today was trying to get my old Facebook account ready to use… the whole thing is broken for me at the identity verification stage and now after reading how easy it is to get your account bricked… I can’t see myself putting any money in Oculus. Cancelled my backorder and watching this video for the second time to find a new option, good video!



  38. MHatz on March 29, 2022 at 6:47 pm

    i was seriously considering getting a quest 2 because it’s affordable for a VR console. but it’s required that i sign in with a facebook account, so it seems more of an extension of facebook rather than a gaming device



  39. Kev-oTheGamer on March 29, 2022 at 6:47 pm

    Thank you.



  40. Cold Eyes Productions on March 29, 2022 at 6:49 pm

  41. V3rZockt on March 29, 2022 at 6:51 pm

  42. Marc Reyes on March 29, 2022 at 6:51 pm

    Great review bro I actually learned a lot! Needed all the info I needed to get started



  43. Ace clutch on March 29, 2022 at 6:52 pm

    sometimes my hair gets stuck in the foam and it is causing red spots to appear at my head



  44. Spirit R on March 29, 2022 at 6:52 pm

    I have a PlayStation VR so what would you recommend for me



  45. Slanne Vlogging on March 29, 2022 at 6:52 pm

    The oculus quest is so uncomfortable when u wear it it’s puts pressure on ur face



  46. moises chavez on March 29, 2022 at 6:53 pm

    We need call of duty 2 zombies on vr



  47. TheDude Lebowski on March 29, 2022 at 6:54 pm

    I wanted a Valve index until I started to see more and more videos about how fragile it is and when your warranty is up after a year you’re efft.



  48. Carl deezer on March 29, 2022 at 6:55 pm

    I just want to play monkey tag

    Lol



  49. Jacob Lyons on March 29, 2022 at 7:02 pm

  50. Slinx on March 29, 2022 at 7:02 pm

    hey, i’m looking through a lot of videos to consider what i want and i just wanted to thank you for naming specific specs and concisely laying out what you do and don’t like about each headset.
