The Oculus Experience: The Oculus Quest Review

When Oculus first started out as a company, three years before debuting the Oculus Rift S, founder Palmer Lucky had a vision that virtual reality (VR) was headed for integrated mainstream fame. To that end, he Kickstarted the Oculus Rift, one of the first head-mounted displays for VR.Oculus is offering three headsets this holiday season: the entry-level Oculus Go, the mid-tier Oculus Quest, and the gamer's delight, the Oculus Rift S, a quantum leap from the previous excursion, the Oculus Rift, from 2016. The Oculus Quest has the power, the games, and the simplicity to easily become the go-to VR headset this holiday season.

What does the Quest bring to the table that the others don't? Staying within the Oculus line, the Quest has a distinct advantage over the Oculus Go with an even more robust lineup of games and the addition of far superior Touch Controllers, and even more sensitive head and hand tracking than the Go. But like the Go, the Quest has a distinct advantage in the VR market—the headset is completely wireless, with all sensors and trackers embedded in the headset. Does it surpass the Oculus Rift S? More on that in our next review.
