To chase an incremental update to the Rift (like the Vive Pro has done) is putting too much effort in the wrong direction (like HTC has done). An incremental update in resolution is near worthless to the experience, and it increases the system requirements for a product that is already out of reach for many. Wireless tethers are also way overblown IMO. A tether is a tether is a tether.
If Oculus released a Rift 2 with slightly more resolution and a wireless tether then I would be like... meh. That would be an expensive upgrade for no real increased value.
Outside-in tracking is dead. A Rift 2 should be a Santa Cruz that plugs into an external PC (which can be a backpack btw). I suggest they wait another 1-2 years so they can reasonably require multi-projection in order to facilitate a substantial increase in resolution. Those two things (inside-out tracking + substantial increase in resolution via multi-projection) would make a worthy Rift 2.
In the meantime, honestly, Santa Cruz is the response to the Vive Pro. They can't compete with Santa Cruz.

Outside-in tracking isn't going anywhere next generation, Oculus have already stated some time last year that they're sticking with the Constellation tracking system.
Oculus will be releasing two headsets next year, the CV2 for high end home us and the Santa Cruz as a lower quality headset, somewhere between the Go and the CV2, for people on the go.
I still think that the Santa Cruz headset is a mistake tbh, I just don't think there's a big enough market for it to sell well.

Please do not use all caps. It is considered quite rude.
That being said if you looked up what you wanted on Google you would have found what you are looking for. The most interesting thing Oculus has revealed is the Oculus Go. Check it out......on Google.
