Oculus Rift S Setup, Unboxing & Tips

28 Comments

1. Hey man. How does the Rift S compare to the Rift in terms of heat? because my Rift makes my face sweat after an hour or so of use.

2. Could u use this on a gaming laptop

3. i have oculus go. so i decided go with the rift s so i don't run out of battery . my pc is vr ready. sodid i make the right choice?

4. I was so pissed when I first saw the specs but once I calmed down a bit and judged it for what it is, the cv1 was more like a beta test and the Rift S is Honestly the most sensible headset to buy, I can't honestly recomend to a friend they buy a Vive Pro, a Pimax or any $600 – $2,000 headset with a straight face but at $400 you would be hard pressed to find any solid contenders that dont have some major caveats and the poor old vive is utterly out classed and priced at this point.

5. How's the clarity / fov vs Samsung Odyssey+ . I mostly watch movies using something like Virtual Desktop and play casual seated games so tracking has never been much of an issue for me.

6. Does yours freeze when using Steam VR?

7. I am located in Mexico… I guess I will have to wait :c

8. hi mike thanks for your input. what about battery time on quest.? when you test it out…

   thanks

9. Does anyone know if the Quest will use a version of Oculus home?

10. what about the index?

11. Will the VR Cover adapters from the original Rift work with the Rift S? It didn't look like it from your video, but wanted to get a definite answer.

12. I have the original Rift. Is it worth the upgrade for those of us who has the first Rift? I'm confused about this new Rift.

13. Bought a pair of behind the neck headphones that seem like they'd be perfect and won't interfere with comfort. Even came with a microfiber cloth and a 1/4" adapter.

14. Whichever one I get I will be getting it through your link, thanks Mike for all you do for us.

15. how luckyu r i hope mine comes on time evin tho i have arift i will be picking this up just incase my rift breaks. quick question. that 3d printed galsses insert you used for rift will that fit in the rifts? i REALLY dont want to have to buy another set of lenses they were quite expensive

16. Would a Display port to HDMI adapter work for rift s?

17. Hope they sell a virtual link cable to tidy things up in the future. Looks great!

18. 3 weeks until I get my quest!

19. Opted for Valve Index for few reasons including lack of IPD, insideout tracking, resolution, refresh rate, field of view and facebook. Sold out within<2hours .. Nice video as usual 🙂

20. Darn, now I has to become a YouTuber, I'm to poor to buy a Oculus Rift but I so relay want one 🙂 But I am so glad they gave you that and that you did show it and how it was, I want to see more content, like cinema and exploring; how is Google map with Oculus and are there any 3D/180 videos of the rain forest or Serengeti?

21. Everyone: AHH IPD ISSUES! I am at one end of the spectrum. F- Oculus! AH 80HZ! A downgrade. Screw Oculus! AHHH GARBAGE COMPARED TO INDEX
    Product is reviewed:
    Everyone: Oh it's fine and actually quite good, I knew it all along

22. Thank for this review !

    I just would to know if 80Hz can cause more motion sickness or that really incomfortable ?
    And more, theses "40%" quality upgrade of screen is visible ?

    Thank again !

23. When will we know if there will be games with the package

24. Ordered mine yesterday bring on May 21st!!

25. I play a LOT of beat saber. I put my hands behind my back all the time. I would lose tracking literally every second. I cant buy this lmao. Ill stick to my og rift.

26. If you dont own a rift would you recommend this or the original version

27. I'm a HUGE FPS fan. Contractors VR is my favorite. So I'm a little worried about the tracking issues with ProtubeVR.

    Can you tell me if a 1st gen touch controller can be paired and then used in your right hand?

    Perhaps you can keep using the S touch controller in your left. This may help with occlusion, but it wouldn't address banging that controller ring to against your protube however.

28. I pre-ordered mine yesterday but I went to my local Bestbuys to check the #OculusQuest and #OculusRiftS display and there were not on display. a store sales person told me that they won’t be on display on some @BestBuy in Florida , he told me they won’t have any #Oculus displays at all ,some issues with @Oculus because Oculus wanted more store space for their display and #bestbuy said no.
