Virtual reality’s second generation is here, and it’s complicated. Today Oculus opens preorders for its new hardware lineup, the untethered Oculus Quest and the “upgraded” PC-based Oculus Rift S. Both retail for $399, and both are due to release May 21. We’ve spent some time with each headset now, and you’ll find our thoughts about the Oculus Rift S over here.
Let’s talk Quest though, far-and-away the more interesting of the two headsets. How interesting, you ask? Within an hour of donning the Oculus Quest, it’s clear this is the future of virtual reality. It’s not the most powerful headset, nor the most comfortable, nor even the cheapest.
