Oculus Quest 2 review: a virtual reality goggle for everyone

From Nfortec we not only seek to offer you the best possible quality in all our family of PC components, but we also want you to squeeze your gaming computer to the maximum and take advantage of all the possibilities it offers. Virtual reality is already a reality and some devices that offer endless possibilities for gaming are starting to hit the market. Discover our review of the Oculus Quest 2 virtual reality glasses.

A virtual reality that is already establishing itself

Virtual reality for PC has never been a "reality" but for several years several companies have been betting on offering a quality product at a more affordable price than we were used to. In many cases, being able to enjoy reality technology on our computer was an investment that many people could not afford

Facebook acquired the company Oculus and has recently released the Oculus Quest 2 virtual reality glasses. These glasses cost 349 euros, which is a very tight selling price for everything it offers

Oculus Quest: squeeze VR on your computer

The new virtual reality glasses Oculus Quest 2 have the glasses themselves, adjustable with head straps, and a pair of controllers (one for each hand). Once we have opened the glasses we will be able to play from the Oculus Quest 2, only with the glasses and controllers. To be able to play in this way we will have to purchase the games in the Oculus store itself and enjoy only the games offered there

However, it is also possible to enjoy virtual reality on our computer thanks to a USB cable (any third-party cable is valid and can be purchased at any online store for a low price) or completely wirelessly if we have a 5G router and buy the Virtual Desktop application from the glasses themselves.

Playing with your glasses via cable

If we choose to play connected by cable, we must take into account that a long cable will be necessary so that it does not limit our mobility. We will be able to play any video game that we acquire through Steam (that is specific for VR) through the Steam VR application that we will be able to acquire for free in the Steam store itself

The games that we will be able to play through Steam VR will depend on the graphic capacity of our computer. We must meet at least the minimum requirements requested by Steam in the specifications of each game

Enjoy virtual reality without cables

If we do not want the cable to bother us when playing we can always purchase the Virtual Desktop application from the Oculus store (from the glasses themselves) and play completely wirelessly as long as we have a 5G router at home, since a good Internet connection is required to optimally enjoy the games. Wirelessly we can also enjoy any game that is available on Steam VR.

Here are a couple of tutorials so you can get the most out of your Oculus Quest 2 or so you know how they work in case you decide to try the wonderful world of virtual reality in the future.
