Looking at the Tested review, I'm getting excited for CV2....
Reduced God rays
Oculus offering corrective lenses for glasses wearers
Flexible facial interface and with thicker softer looking foam.
All the things I had listed on my wish list for the next headset. Higher res is going to be a given so... this time next year I'll be looking forward to having something very sexy on my face. ahem

A guy on Discord has just got one from best buy, he says that you can actually enjoy watching a movie now compared to the rift, with very little god rays and much crisper image.

They only say that to protect from damage, I have a high-quality battery pack that will be able to charge this thing twice, never had any issues with any of my devices, as long as it delivers clean steady power, you're good.

I must admit my primary concern, which few reviews are mentioning, is
the short battery life. Which may have been forgiveable if it charged
quickly, or if you could use it plugged in. But from what I'm hearing it
takes longer to charge than you get in play time and you're told not to
use it while plugged in. You can't even charge it using a battery pack
while on the go, say while travelling between destinations, because they
said not to use a battery pack.
2.5 hours watching video, not even two films during a flight.

Link to said device please.
EDIT actually I think there needs to be much more user/developer testing with regards to the dangers of plugged in whilst using. Doing so could reduce the effectiveness of the battery or worse, have it overheat and damage the GO or your face. It does seem like an obvious thing to allow use whilst plugged in but Oculus are being cautious for a reason.

Ya, God Rays are greatly reduced. In fact I was able to go into Big Screen using GO and watch some videos with ppl. While the graphical atmosphere of BigScreen is not as impressive as Rift, the screen image of the video was on par but with less god rays.
And I was doing all this while laying back on my couch
