Comparisons through the lenses are useless IMHO. In some of those screen shots the Oculus Link looks better then Rift S and we all know that can't be the case.
Sarcasm?

I think the only place where the Quest Link looked better than the S is with the black levels for Elite Dangerous, and with the lenses in the Quest, I believe that is the case. I still enjoy my DK2 for the amazing black levels playing Elite Dangerous. I’m hoping the black levels I saw in the comparison video are accurate. The CV1 looked completely accurate. I can’t even play Elite Dangerous with my CV1 because the black levels are so bad.Getting my Quest today, and I look forward to making my own comparisons.

Well technically Rift S and Quest were released on the same date.

CV1 uses Oled displays, so not sure why the black levels in Elite Dangerous would be bad for you. Most people like Elite Dangerous in the CV1 because of the black levels. The lenses in the Rift S are also better then the Oculus Quest lenses because Rift S came after the Oculus Quest and so it uses the Oculus Go lenses, which are excellent lenses.

However Quest was being developed much longer than the Rift S which was thrown together fairly rapidly.

Yeah, the God Rays are exactly what I was referencing.

Maybe you are getting confused with Godrays in the CV1 not the black levels.

If you cannot play dark background games like Elite with your Rift cv1 you might want to try turning Spud off. This seems to help for some, including me.

The comparison video above demonstrates it perfectly. The Quest with the link looks much better in the video, and I’m looking forward to checking it out when my Quest arrives

The god rays on the CV1 were always a issue at times, i found that in ED if i changed the hud colours to green and i lowered the games gamma way down it helped to a extent, and on other HMD like the Vive the god ray is not so smeared across the entire lens, but more of a lens flare type effect, i also tried the Gear VR mod and that removed all god rays completly and was a pin sharp as if it were a new modern HMD, was wonderful......just a pity it messed with the eye relief and caused me massive eye strain after 20 mins so i had to revert back to the original lens. lol
