Features of Oculus Quest 301-00170-10 VR Gaming Headset
- All-in-one Android VR
In Oculus 301-00170-01 gaming headset, technology meets with convenience and affordability to produce an excellent device.
It is a fully independent VR set that does not require any console or PC. Everything you need to set this up and running is in the box (except your phone, lol). Imagine having all you need to explore VR i9n one box. Sounds great, right?
Setting up is also straightforward. All you need is to set up the device using the Oculus mobile app (downloaded on your phone), and you’re good to go.
- Wireless
Yes, it is fully wireless. No cords, no cables, no ports, just headset and controllers. With this product, Oculus completely eliminates the issue of tangling wires that’s common with most VRs while gaming. It also gives you the freedom to move in every direction easily. Your movement is not limited by the length of a cable or the fear of tripping over a cable.
It comes with an in-built battery that can last for 2 to 4 hours on a single charge. The length of battery life is determined by the type of game you’re playing. The USB Type-C cable is long enough, though, to enable you to charge during use. Bear in mind that charging during use will limit your freedom of movement.
- Advanced Technology Controllers and Tracking
Oculus Touch Controllers are very advanced. It tracks thumb movements with little to no delay in response. It essentially recreates your hands, gestures, and interactions. It makes every game feel so real you can literally reach out to touch it.
The Oculus 301-00170-01 VR gaming headset is designed with an Oculus Insight tracking system. This system automatically reflects your movement in VR. It does not need any external accessory to do so.
- Guardian mode
A guardian mode is incorporated in the design of the Oculus 301-00170-01 VR gaming headset. In this mode, you can set a virtual boundary surrounding the space within which you play. If you go past the boundary, cameras will turn on, allowing you to see where you are without taking off the headset.
This is a very useful feature in VR. It protects you from bumping into walls, furniture, or other objects. It prevents you from falling and injuring yourself. It also prevents you from crashing into someone or breaking your furniture. Your safety is guaranteed.
- Built-in Speakers
Oculus Quest all-in-one VR gaming headset 301-00170-01 has built-in speakers that play right beside your ears. They sound very good, louder than your phone speaker. A headphone jack is included in the headset. This is for users who want to be immersed in the game or prefer to play quietly. Earphones are not included in the box, though. You’ll have to get one from the Oculus online store.
- Casting
Although your game can’t be viewed on the TV (if you have company) as is obtainable in other VRs, there is a provision for sharing your screen. Using a Chromecast or tablet, the headset can cast your screen to a TV, Ipad, or cell phone. Friends and family can view your game either together on the TV or cast directly to their individual devices. It’s super cool. The catch, though, is that they won’t get full HD images.
- Low Screen Effect
You know that feeling of watching a TV through a lens that’s common with VR, right? This product removes that feeling. The Oculus Quest all-in-one VR gaming headset 301-00170-01 has a very low and quite insignificant screen effect. The headset lenses are as good as your eyes. You just won’t notice them while playing.
- Great Gaming Library
The Oculus 301-00170-01 VR gaming headset has a fairly limited game library compared to other VR devices. It, however, contains very popular games that are not available in other VR sets. Some of the games include Superhot VR, Creed: Rise to Glory, Beat Saber, and Robo Recall. The games are only available in Demo. I know you don’t like that, but not to worry, you can easily purchase them at the Oculus store.
- An Entertainment Device
In this product, Oculus moves VR beyond gaming to socializing and entertainment. The device works excellently with entertainment and streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube. It even has two versions of YouTube in the app.
In addition to that, you can easily mode new games, upload new tracks and music. It even allows you to add third-party developer games.
The Verdict
