And this all begins THIS MONDAY. Hopefully the rumor-mill will prove true this time.
Also note that Oculus is scheduled to be involved in at least 9 different sessions; you can get the full list of GDC here:
Down the Rabbit Hole with Oculus Quest (Presented by Oculus)

ah yeah, price is a another matter and I'd loved to have seen maybe $50 less on the Rift-S tag.
I think it'll still be a price that'll attract who it needs to attract though... and no doubt will drop by $50 by Christmas (or maybe even before).

Let's
talk about "clarity" (which I use as an overarching term for how
'clear/immersive' the view through the headset looks, and factors in
display characteristics and lenses). I'm going to exclude Varjo and
Pimax because those are more niche headsets and harder to make a direct
comparison for a simple list.
More Clarity
Reverb
Vive Pro
Rift S
Quest
Go
Rift
Less Clarity

Like everyone else he does complain about the black levels due to the LCD screens. I guess I'll have to buy it and try it to know if the loss of black is worth it. I do know the brain interprets black at times so maybe it's not a big deal.
Oculus Rift CV1, Valve Index & PSVR2, Asus Strix OC RTX™ 3090, i9-10900K (5.3Ghz), 32GB 3200MHz, 16TB SSD

All this will be moot soon anyway, Oculus are bound to add sensor support sooner rather than later. Probably before the thing launches imo.

MowTin said:Yes, but they all felt that this was rather inconsequential. Their opinion of the tracking was very positive.
MowTin said:
Will you deny that these two in this video, are saying "The tracking is flawless"?

wtf, you are literally quoting the phrase, "the tracking is flawless."

I could swear I heard the Oculus guy saying this headset isn't aimed at current Rift owners. So why are people who have a Rift constantly moaning about how they don't want a Rift S?
Because "the guy" also said that the Rift CV1 is being phased out. Why are you moaning about moaning?
Well, seeing you're the champion of it, I guessed you would know 😉
