The Oculus Quest 2 is a solid VR gadget but honestly, I think you should get a Meta Quest 3 instead. Even if it isn’t discounted right now.

There are reasons to still go for the Oculus Quest 2. It’s a lot cheaper which is excellent for people on a tight budget, for those who aren’t sure they’ll use VR all that much, or if you’re getting the headset for someone who’s rough with their toys. But in general the Quest 3 is just better. A lot better.

The graphics are a massive leap forward, the Quest 3’s mixed reality is great, and the gadget feels comfier to wear too. You’ll even get a free copy of one of thebest VR games ever: Asgard’s Wrath 2. If you can afford it get the Quest 3 (and use ourQuest 3 guide for newbiesto get off to a great start).
