    In Today's video I go through as many Quest 2 life hacks as possible, especially they life hacks Oculus/Facebook/Meta don't tell you. From preventing melted charging ports to experimental features this should hopefully act like an all in one tips & tricks, beginners guide, starters guide, newbie guide, life hack video for the Meta/Oculus Quest 2

    My channel is about VR Content (obviously lol) I've covered many topics on this channel in the past such as PC Building, PC Gaming Knowledge, Gaming News. From CPM rates to Industry knowledge, Business knowledge, how to edit, how to build a gaming PC, budget or not. However VR is cooler so I'm probably gonna keep doing that.
    I'm like the monkey you send into space for tests. I just come back with the results and give them to you for FREE.

    Pro-tip: Get yourself one of those Keweisi USB charge monitor that has shutdown feature. When Quest finishes charging, it will wait 5 seconds and turn off the power, making the melty charge port situation impossible.

    Yes. You can side load any app from the android universe to easily play on the Quest in the States. There is only one issues though, if the developer does a major update once a month like the game TFT (team fight tactics) you will once again have to down the newer version. It will however remember your logins from before you just have to manually update. Last night I was playing the game with a friend. Now if the was only a good PURE source to find your APKs so you can get the official non tampered with game files.

    @phillipmcatee6830 2 роки тому

    One solution to the chargers as well is a power pack, I have the vr power pack 2 and got it to extend my battery life, but realized you charge that while it’s plugged into the headset and it charges both of them at the same time, and your charger is going straight to the power pack and not your oculus. I have left it on the charger for long period of times and nothing has gone wrong. Just another solution I found out and you get extra battery life from it so but the vrpower 2 is like 70 dollars so it’s if you want to spend that.

    The charger melting should literally not be happening because once the battery is done charging there should be a smart feature that shuts off charging anyways so that the batteries lifespan is not damaged, a la nintendo switch charging dock style of charging, not only is it dangerous bit it is also hurting battery health from overcharge.
