You can also use an Apple TV to mirror the iPhone/iPad and "cast" the gameplay on your TV. I figured that out after buying a Chromecast, which is pretty much useless for me now.
Why does nobody realize that they use removable batteries on purpose? They don't want you to run out of battery and end gameplay until it charges. I have had that happen with the PS4 several times. EDIT: this was not intended to attack the video creator! Sorry! The idea is less interruption to gameplay.
eventually someone will make a battery that has external contacts through the plate like some that exist for the xbox controllers. Just set the controller in the dock to charge.
I agree with your initial assessment and do not see how it is an attack at all. I purposely have not moved to rechargeable batteries. Instead, I use Energizer Lithium batteries. I have been using a fresh pair for a couple of weeks and they are still close to 100%.
UGH, I TOTALLY AGREE! No one realizes how genius it is! Having a set or two of extra batteries always charged means that you never run out of power, and it's AWESOME.
@@owenbock5883 still pointless, the quick ability to swap batteries is more important for most people even if they don't realize it, smart people would definitely prefer some eneloops to quick swap.
i personally love removable batteries for a very different reason which is if your battery ever gives out then you don't have to either get a new controller or pull it apart to replace the battery. this always bothered me about playstation controllers.
If you get a light that is to high strength and you expose your eyes to it a lot it will cause permanent eye damage because just because you can't see the ir light so you don't know how bright it is and it will cause permanent eye damage after prolonged exposure.
clyde Smithers although it’s an interesting point your going to have a headset covering your eyes so technically your eyes won’t be hurt at all unless you keep it on when ur not playing which isn’t smart to begin with but I do need this cause my oculus never seems to track well at all I play in a decent light space and still shit so this is a necessity at this point no point in using the headset if I can’t even play one title
I already have a VR headset (Lenovo Explorer) but the features the Oculus Quest gives are just amazing! VR on the go, hand tracking! and you can connect it to the pc.
Any idea where to get decals similiar to what you have? I just want spider man eyes or venom eyes and I cant get either without getting a whole decal, and I just want eyes! That decal etsy shop your recommending has been on vacation for months.
Great video. I need to get one of them magsafes! And a decal, too. Also I regret buying the official Oculus case. The strap is positioned at a really weird angle, I would've preferred something like what you showed here.
Getting a Quest 2 on payday! Watching your videos really gives me some insight on what to/not to get for my system.. appreciate the feedback, you've earned yourself another subscriber!
Deven Gilmore rechargeable ones last no where near as long as a Duracell and go bad after a few months I have way too much experience with bad rechargeables, my personal opinion
definitely gonna get the rechargeables, the ir lights (wow, that I had no idea was possible, can't wait to try it!) and a decal as soon as this virus outbreak thing finally dissolves (😖 yeah, I only recently got the Quest)
Question, 1. for the earbuds, does the oculest have a build in mic or do I need to get something for that 2. Would the ir illuminator damage the camera over time, like aka for example they say not to take the headset outside or something, maybe the light directly would damage it, I'm wondering if I'm being stupid or something by thinking this, ;-; just ned to know just in case
Do you know if the magsafe cable supports oculus link and if not is there a cable that is magsafe and also works with oculus link, i think that the magnet attachments may not be ablt to transfer that high amount of data soo..
I appreciate you Edit:rechargeable battery’s for the controller usually they come in a pack of four if you need one battery for each controller you should be set for every week until something breaks Double edit:oh you did
How do you get to the website that sells the decals it’s not working! It’s my bday in 3 days and I 99% sure I’m getting a modded oculus quest and I’m super happy. But with my own money I want to buy a skin please explain
Great video 👍 I live in Canada and the Tendelux 80ft IR Illuminator | AI4 No Hot Spot Wide Angle Infrared Light for Security Camera is on amazon USA and won’t ship to Canada ... I even looked on amazon Canada and not available..... too bad I like your idea
Can you go on the oculus app but instead of the chrome cast use your Apple TV to cast what’s being shown on your phone onto the tv It would be slightly delayed because it’s the oculus app tho
I just ordered a DRAGON skin for my Quest, and it was BOGO so I picked up a howling wolf for my Cousin. The dirty rotten such and such put the thing on my head on Thanksgiving and said have fun. 18 hours later I owned one and am hooked.
Tip if you want to broadcast the oculus screen on a tv but you don’t have a chrome cast you can use a Apple TV just go on the oculus app on your phone look at the VR screen on the app then air play to the tv
HotshotTek You scored yourself a subscriber with the previous video (newest video at the moment [thumbnail contains the words "worth it"]) I watched and a notification bell with this one. I ordered a couple IR flashlights (3W each) that run on AA batteries. Hopefully they work okay for using my headset in the dark (I'll try to remember to add a comment here after I get them in ~2 days). I'm a Software developer that lives outside at the moment or I'd use something with a wall adapter.
Alfonso Playz Customer service suggested me to scotch tape it. Wow. But I kind of feel like it tracks worse than my left controller so I may request for replacement
Casting to a Chromecast SUCKS! It doesn't even work half the time, and when it does connect, it's super laggy with a huge delay, and at some point, it'll eventually just disconnect. I have a 350Mbps internet speed and there's open space between where I play and the router (which is maybe 10-12ft away) so it's not my internet connection that's the problem. Also, i'm using a Chromecast Ultra, so the Chromecast itself should have no problem communicating with the Quest. I do realize that casting is still in beta (it even says so) but damn...it's just really bad, lol.
Same problem. I am like 5 feet away from clear line of sight from an accesspoint with 500mbps internet and chomecast is same distance. Stutter all the rime even in low quality. Looks like software issue.
I just started saving money for oculus quest and im getting sad how much everything i want/need for it costs... but im gonna do it even if it takes years
Look I understand that you still wanna play the oculus quest while charging but like i really recommend not to, it gives you a chance to take your break and safely charge you quest with out it being damaged
I think sticking the little googly eyes is funny I like it makes the VR seem more happy
Little Red how did you attach them?
Sparks ·-· thanks
I did it dude do it
It bothers me that the earbuds are on the wrong sides. 3:44
Agreed
I was just gonna say the same thing
They are XD I didn’t notice at all
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
@@justachillskeleton7995 SAME
You throwing shade at googly eyes?
TNovix I want googly eyes now
You can also use an Apple TV to mirror the iPhone/iPad and "cast" the gameplay on your TV. I figured that out after buying a Chromecast, which is pretty much useless for me now.
thanks i have an apple tv so this was helpful
ha
yeah but note that the apple tv method requires a fast internet while the chromecast method doesnt
@FiveMMania I mean the router is not the problem, its the internet provider

Congrats
Do you have it
Because of the whole quarintine situation i am unable to get it for awhile as my only pay is a paper run
Crazy Player I am ordering mine and it comes in a couple days I am so hyped
I’ll get mine in december
after watching this video i now find it insane that there isn't a single company that includes the light in the box
That IR light is an amazing idea. I just ordered one. Thanks!
If you get a light that is to high strength and you expose your eyes to it a lot it will cause permanent eye damage because just because you can't see the ir light so you don't know how bright it is and it will cause permanent eye damage after prolonged exposure.

@@GabrielOrtiz- I agree with you but if your headset is not tracking properly with decent light, it probably has a defect and you should replace it
I already have a VR headset (Lenovo Explorer) but the features the Oculus Quest gives are just amazing! VR on the go, hand tracking! and you can connect it to the pc.
2:15 cuz, you’re using the wrong side of the cable. Even so though when use the other side it’s still “awkward”
Weird idea turn your oculus quest into nvg with a portable ir sensor
Any idea where to get decals similiar to what you have? I just want spider man eyes or venom eyes and I cant get either without getting a whole decal, and I just want eyes! That decal etsy shop your recommending has been on vacation for months.
Chris Lombardi me to
7 months later....and they're still on vacations. Anyone has found somebody else selling decals?
Did anyone notice how he says the earbuds have great reviews 4:08 but there are only 18 people who bought them
Thanks for getting my comment hearted
18 seems legit, now if it was 1 well that’s a different story. lol
Oof unhearted
Don’t edit because yo get unhearted
The decals are awesome! Thanks for sharing!👍
I want that IR light now
Nice Video....
Great video. I need to get one of them magsafes! And a decal, too.
Also I regret buying the official Oculus case. The strap is positioned at a really weird angle, I would've preferred something like what you showed here.
FrankenQuest is the BEST option!!!
@Justin there is a case on amazon that fits it perfectly...$35
Im getting a quest shipped tomorrow and im so excited
"there's nothing hi tech when it comes to earbuds" ...lol wut

Getting a Quest 2 on payday!
Watching your videos really gives me some insight on what to/not to get
for my system.. appreciate the feedback, you've earned yourself another subscriber!
Man, I'll be getting my Quest on the 5th and I'm super excited. This video will be really helpful thanks
Great list
did you just put the illuminator ontop on the psvr?
I have high respect.
Does that magnetic usb C cable also work as a link cable?
Oh I have that case! I love it!!!
will the decals stick to a Rift?
I would assume so
I dont think you can put decals on the rift. wouldn't it block the sensors in the headset?
Thanks for the video!!
And bro wym rechargeable batteries are such a hassle I Would rather replace them and keep playing, red Duracells last me about a month straight
Literally have two or three pairs. Just switch the burnt out ones into the charger and some charged ones into the controller.
Deven Gilmore rechargeable ones last no where near as long as a Duracell and go bad after a few months I have way too much experience with bad rechargeables, my personal opinion
Lol mine ran out 2 days after I got mine
I had an Oculus Quest ad before this video lol
Oddly Satisfying Sand same lol
Don’t get those mag safe chargers they only work for about a month because i had them
They tend to develop some kind of corrosion-like film that hinders the metal-to-metal connectivity that is needed for the charge.
Bruh... did you use the wrong end to charge it? God help me you know the right angle is the correct way to plug in to the headset right?
Can you use regular headphones for the quest or do you have to use both headphone jacks
definitely gonna get the rechargeables, the ir lights (wow, that I had no idea was possible, can't wait to try it!) and a decal as soon as this virus outbreak thing finally dissolves (😖 yeah, I only recently got the Quest)
Do you use a spectacle spacer for your Quest?
Are there maybe rechargeable built in battery packs to charge the controllers via cable? I hate using batteries
I wonder if you can airplay
I need to test that out, waiting on the new Apple TV that’s rumored to be coming out soon.
You can cast gameplay to phone with the app
Bruh
Considering a quest.
Dont think, just buy it.
@@bluepill8077 I did. Best decision ever.
@@swiftbluevids5524 smart move, I knew you'd love it. My favorite games are racket NX and skyworld right now. I like multiplayer best.
Next year, it'll double as a PCVR and be the only headset with hand tracking (with no extra hardware of equipment).
@@swiftbluevids5524 how tf you be affording a 400 dollar vr headset
Mines coming next week I’m super excited
Im def gonns buy that venom thing for my quest it goes hard
Hi,
Thanks for this video. Very useful. However, the earbuds don’t work for the Quest 2. Any suggestions?
Just a note. Only the 3rd generation Chromecast supports casting from the Oculus. (I am unsure about the Ultra)
Yes the Ultra works as does the Nvidia Shield
This is no longer true, Oculus have updated this to include the older generations and some smart tv's
Can you do a help video on how to best have two headsets in the same household. Should you have same primary account holder, can you share games, etc.
Wait, the controller batteries are supposed to last a week? Mine last 1-2 days, max. I play too much...
Nice video did anyone get the name of the website for the decals
Does anyone know if I get a second oculus do I need to purchase all the games again? I'm trying to play with my son. Thanks!
Question,
1. for the earbuds, does the oculest have a build in mic or do I need to get something for that
2. Would the ir illuminator damage the camera over time, like aka for example they say not to take the headset outside or something, maybe the light directly would damage it, I'm wondering if I'm being stupid or something by thinking this,
;-; just ned to know just in case
Do you know if the magsafe cable supports oculus link and if not is there a cable that is magsafe and also works with oculus link, i think that the magnet attachments may not be ablt to transfer that high amount of data soo..
Thanks I am thinking about getting one
I appreciate you
Edit:rechargeable battery’s for the controller usually they come in a pack of four if you need one battery for each controller you should be set for every week until something breaks
Double edit:oh you did
Does the cable work with the anker power core ?
Lloyd playz yep
Are these okay to use with oculus quest 2?
Does the magnetic cable work with Quest Link?
Ya I was worried about charger damage this may have saved my oculus thx I’m also interested in the ir light
How do you get to the website that sells the decals it’s not working! It’s my bday in 3 days and I 99% sure I’m getting a modded oculus quest and I’m super happy. But with my own money I want to buy a skin please explain
Do the decals come off
Hey @HotshotTek i need the link to the magnetic charging cable you got, the only form of these are cheap, breakable /or melting cords. thanks!
Is their a mic with the earbuds?
Great video 👍 I live in Canada and the Tendelux 80ft IR Illuminator | AI4 No Hot Spot Wide Angle Infrared Light for Security Camera is on amazon USA and won’t ship to Canada ... I even looked on amazon Canada and not available..... too bad I like your idea
Does the Ir illuminati Ruin the External Camera? Or does it ruin the tracking?
Can you go on the oculus app but instead of the chrome cast use your Apple TV to cast what’s being shown on your phone onto the tv
It would be slightly delayed because it’s the oculus app tho
I really wanted to get the kaws sticker, but they’re closed rn for a break 🥀
use quest as night vision goggles
U r big brain
brain size
*LARGE*
Wait you can?
The Carrot Sardine SECRET MODE *EXTRA LARGE BIG BRAIN*
what exactly does this IR lamp do ? 0_o
Can you take off the decal?
For the earbuds just use the old apple ones with the circle jack
what is the sticker website?
It's in the description.
Hey does the little light thing damage the oculus quest cameras PLEASE HELP
Great info👍 I just got a Quest and didn't know it could show the output via Chromecast!
3:44 um they’re the wrong way round mate
That Etsy Quest decals store has been on vacations for almost a year...
Where is that decal site?

Question: Do you have headphone options? Reason why I asked is cause I'm not a fan of in-ear buds, they feel weird and uncomfortable on me.
There is a way you can mode it to support a Bluetooth headphone if that what’s you mean
What's the website for the decals called
Dude I wish there was a black version of the oculus 2 cause the venom decal looks so bad in white 😭
Is it better to have a green screen to
Tip if you want to broadcast the oculus screen on a tv but you don’t have a chrome cast you can use a Apple TV just go on the oculus app on your phone look at the VR screen on the app then air play to the tv
This dude reminds me so much of Spawnwave

Can you connect this to a PC? I want to be able to play games such as blades and sorcery and VR chat
Yes through oculus link
You were putting the wrong side of the cable into your quest your supposed to place the angled one on the headset
The one you put in the headset is for the wall. The other side of the cord is for the headset.
Notice how at 2:16 he never thought to use the other end of the cord.
Does oculus quest come with any games? And should I get 64GB or 128GB? If I get 64GB could I buy more space later?
MaxIsHere get the 64 GB unless you want to download a ton of movies, the games are only a few GB each, not sure about expandable storage
Can you use a bluetooth wireless earbud?
Herlan Horax yes, you have to go into experimental features
I got a crack in my right touch controller after two months of use rip
Alfonso Playz Customer service suggested me to scotch tape it. Wow. But I kind of feel like it tracks worse than my left controller so I may request for replacement
Yeah mine too
The controllers don’t have a rechargeable battery because average people don’t want. To plug in 3 things at once
does the cable support Link?
Bruh I had the same type of rechargeable batteries before I got my oculus quest
So... if we are having a nerf game or something we can use the and a quest to have night vision and shoot people in the dark

How do you recharge the rechargeable batteries?
Unsure if you’re talking about the oculus but it’s rechargeable with the usb c cable, the AA batteries come it’s a wall adapter to change
