Customer Review
Reviewed in Australia on 5 November 2020
This was my first experience with VR, and I was instantly blown away. It was much cooler than I was expecting.
Pros:
- Full fledged VR experience for much cheaper than you'd usually have to pay
- Can be linked to your computer to play computer titles with Oculus Link, which has worked well for me.
- Can be brought anywhere you like. I recently took it on holidays with me so I can play on the go.
- Gets you up and out of your chair and getting some exercise, whether you like it or not.
- Is a pretty damn fun experience all-around,
Cons:
- Face pad leaves your face feeling burned after some sweaty gameplay
- They made the charging cable way too short on purpose so you're forced to buy their (super overpriced) Oculus Link cable. I just went with a third-party cable which has worked well but has a few issues.
- VR games are mega overpriced. I don't get how VR developers have gotten away with this price gouging for so long.
- I've nearly broken fingers and my controllers on multiple occasions from hitting things, probably more of a me issue than anything else. The controllers are surprisingly tough, though. I've had some big hits with them and they're still working fine with not even a scratch on them. My fingers, not so much.
All in all, if you're wanting to experience VR for the first time, I'd definitely recommend getting one of these.
