Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

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.

Tried to buy another cable instead of buying this one and ended up wasting $30, 100% don't cheap out on the link cable as this one is amazing. The cable is also long enough to reach my entire room.

A bit pricy but nice to have the official cable and not have to worry about making sure the cable works properly.

Used this to connect my laptop and oculus quest2 and was able to play my PC VR games with ease. A shame a cord cost so much... id give it a higher score.

Works great, when I hooked it up too my oculus I experienced no problems, although it does sometimes curls. I know there are cheaper options out there but I preferred to get the wire from the direct brand.

I am buying a second cable only because we have purchased a second quest 2. This one for my other son’s bday. The cable provides an excellent transfer rate and allows us to be able to access the steam library for VR games purchased through there. Not only can you use the Meta games but with the cable you can use the Steam library.

excellent cable even charges my phone pretty fast too

Expensive garbage, broke from normal use within 3 months and out of return window , Unacceptable manufacturing and quality for the price they charge for these. Probably better off searching out other brands. I read the reviews and figured I’d try anyways knowing I take care of my stuff , should’ve passed on this one. It’s a shame too because it worked great but at $79 and this amount of life in it , the manufacturer should be ashamed of their product

You see, the broken cable I bought from here should be repaired or replaced by Best Buy but Best Buy failed to take care of it. Best Buy store failed to take care of the product either. Take advice, Best Buy is not a responsible one, leave it buy at Amazon or original website and don't buy product here yourself, because as said, you will know it, future friend.

This cane is way to overpriced and is garbage I’ve only used this for a month and it’s already twisted the port I want a free replacement

Literally broke when I barely used it. I barely used the wire and now it just broke.

Sleeve over 'USB c' plug slides. Am going to return.

so reason for my 4 star. first is i feel i should not have to have even bought this cord for the quest to work with a pc. the quest had a 10 ft cord that it came with. its marketed as a stand alone set sure, but still would be nice to have a cord that not only is longer (so can be used better when charging) but also would work well while plugged into a pc. i also think that its pricy. i feel they did that because they know ppl would want to use the VR headset with a pc to get more out of it. like games etc. all of that said, the cord is long and works great. the cord that came with the headset worked with a pc but it was laggy. this cord made it a lot less laggy. still got lag but i feel that was something else like the headset maybe trying to use its own hardware or something. some games played great and some games that seemed to be more demanding not as well. if you want to use the VR headset (oculus quest) with a pc i suggest this cord. it did make a difference. it also adds a little more length.

People will tell you it's stupid to pay this much for a cable, and they're right normally. This cable though has saved me more times than not the past month, I've tried external battery packs/power banks and a few other USB C cables (some from USB A to it and others directly from C to C) and the official Oculus Link cable is the only one capable of sustaining a fast enough charge to actually increase the battery rapidly while in use. I'm playing 90hz through virtual desktop in intense high settings steam games with all the encoder and performance checks at the max in virtual desktop settings so my CPU clock speed is actually running faster than the stock Q2's would be -- yesterday the headset died while wirelessly playing a Population One match (luckily through Steam so I could still talk and hear my teammates through my bluetooth headset), I ran over to the link cable and yanked it out of my computer and plugged it into the wall outlet next to my roomscale play area and bam within SECONDS the headset booted back up and was showing 3% battery already. I was able to reconnect to virtual desktop and get back in THE SAME MATCH! within about a minute total turn around. Kept playing while plugged in and before you know it the headset was at 30% charge -- this is IMPOSSIBLE to achieve off a 16 foot cable from any third party. Looks like the Oculus fiber optic whatever gimmicks in this cable actually pay off.

The Meta Link Cable does what it needs to do when connected to the Quest 2, offering good speed and plenty of distance for an enjoyable VR experience. The connection is stable, and the cable length allows for great mobility. However, the outer cable feels cheaply made and not as durable as expected, especially given the price. For what it offers, I think it’s overpriced—you’re paying a premium for the Meta brand, but the build quality doesn’t quite match up. It works fine, but a sturdier design and a lower price point would make it a much better value.

I have mixed feeling about the Oculus link cable. On the one hand it is very high quality but it is also very costly. There are better options for the price but do your research carefully. The main value here is that if you are using this cable you have the best chance of getting a solid connection tethered to your PC. So if you are having connection issues this cable is your best bet that its not the cause. However many other cables that you could use will work just as well for a fraction of the cost. Again do your research and you should be fine. Remember you do not need this cable if you not playing games from your PC. The Quest 2 is a standalone headset and only uses a link cable when playing PC VR games.

I tend to always go for matching accessories instead of looking fora cheaper option from a third party. This is a prime example of that. While this cable is definitely a bit pricey for what it is, it works well and the build quality is good. Furthermore, if you experience any connection issues, using the OEM cable quickly rules out third party hardware being culprit. My only recommendation is to make sure to ONLY use this for connecting to your Quest headset. While this will work for any other device, such as charging your phone, the way the vertical connector is designed can either damage the cable or your phone if used for charging. This is because the connector is longer than standard which can create pressure on your charging port and the neck of the cable in the event your are holding it near the port while charging, drop the phone and catch it near the cable, or put too much pressure on it. This is easy to do because of the increased leverage with the head being as long as it is. Besides that, this cable does a great job of providing a stable tether to your PC or to actively charge while playing.

I purchased this item for friend & it seems to be of decent quality. I read online that others were having connectivity issues with cheaper cables so I decided to sprang for OEM & it works as advertised. I still believe that this cable is grossly overpriced & should be no more than $40 & hence it loses a star.
