Oculus Quest Quick Start Guide

The Oculus Quest Original is a stand-alone virtual reality headset from Oculus. It has six degrees of freedom and two cameras on the front of the device. The controllers are similar to those of the Rift, but have an improved design that makes them more comfortable to use. Its main feature is its ability to run off of a built-in processor and graphics card, meaning it does not need to be tethered to a powerful gaming PC. It also comes with a library of over 100 titles, ranging from games like Beat Saber and Superhot VR to apps like Oculus TV. The Oculus Quest is a great headset for those looking to have an immersive virtual reality experience without the need for a dedicated gaming PC.
