    Great Cable

    Works great with my quest 3. Pretty much just plug and play with your pc and you don’t have to worry about battery or onboard graphics.

    A brief review of the meta quest link cable.

    The cable is extremely useful as it let's me use the complete potential of my headset and it's very easy to use, although I would say it's a bit overpriced.

    Is it so hard to make a cord that rotates

    Dude, they make 5 dollar flat irons that have a rotating head on the cord so it doesn’t get tangled when you use it. I am now on my third cord becuase when we play GTag the cord gets tangled or stuck and now becuase of that it got yanked out again and won’t stay in its port when we use it. Seriously Meta come on!!! The length is great but the fact that it keeps getting tangled and pulled sucks.

    Overpriced

    16ft cable, fiber optic core, & USB-C 3.0. The cable is exactly what you need, but overpriced. Keeps headset battery maintained whilst using. Only reason for 3 stars is because the cable is not braided & price.

  • What actually comes in the box with the Quest 2? Do I need to buy anything additional?

    To play stand-alone games on the Quest 2, no, you do not need to purchase anything additional. In the box you get the headset, a charger, two controllers, and a "glasses spacer" to help if you need to wear glasses while using the headset. If you want to play computer-based VR games through the Quest 2, you will need additional software or hardware. You can either purchase software to make this work wirelessly (a Google search will tell you all you need to know on how to do this), or you can buy a USB-C cable to connect the Quest 2 to your computer (of course, your computer must support USB-C for this to work). Oculus has its own USB-C cable called the Link (expensive but good), but Google can also point you to lower-priced options.
