Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve owned and used multiple VR systems. If you have the PC to power it, the Rift S is the obvious choice unless you want to spend twice as much for something like the Index.

I love I’ve had so much fun when you first start playing it it’s disorienting but you get use to it and you can play no problem so much fun

Takes a little to get used to but pretty good once you know how to move it a lot of fun

Okay, it's slightly lower resolution and requires a gaming PC. But the lightweight, comfortable design is a huge benefit over the Quest, as well as the higher refresh rate and ZERO latency when running off the PC compared to Oculus Link w/ Quest. If you are debating this vs Quest, GET THIS INSTEAD. Just make sure to get a good pair of earphones because the audio is lacking bass.

Best vr headset for people who have a pc, but doesn’t want the setup of the lighthouse tracking. You just need to plug it in and get the app. Great headset yet again!

This is a game changer. Make sure your PC has the components to push the graphics settings to keep FPS up. This is for the Oculus Rift. Teaching simulators are the bomb.

Good for the price, though it made me motion sick so I had to return

It was my first time testing VR. And the sensation was incredible. but in reality after some use you realize that all games are just puzzles games. If you are looking for deeper experiences I recommend you wait for this technology to advance. In reference to the product itself. The quality is pretty good and the installation I would say it's easy. but Don't buy this for a child. it can break easily.

i love it so much because it is highly immersive, and the only downside is the cable but it really doesn’t take away from the experience. amazing

The only problem is we couldn't hook it up to my son's gaming laptop

This is a lot of fun, easy to operate oh, and the whole family loves it. You need a pretty good computer to run it from though, I'm not sure about gaming consoles

Got this for my son's birthday. Would recommend making sure your computer is capable of connecting. Mine didn't have the display port needed.

Great resolution, everything else is a down grade from the first rift. If your trying to upgrade from the first rift the only thing your getting in better res. No headphones-plug your own in controllers don't pick up most of the time, doesn't start right most of the time. In other words keep your original until rift 2 comes out.

I owned the original rift and loved how well it worked but setup was a pain! All that is fixed now with the rift s. Just throw on the headset and go! No more cameras to setup and aim. Started playing in minutes instead of an hour or two. I also love the camera pass through when you go out of bounds so you can see the objects around you. The new display is stunning. My only complaint is the built in speakers. They aren’t immersive at all. But it does have a headphone jack on the headset. I use my plantronics noise cancelling and boom I’m on another planet. All and all I would high recommend. A++

My step son bought this headset and he loves it. It works really well and is super immersive. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a good VR headset.

However they've updated all the issues that happened at launch. I originally bought this and returned cause the image was flickering. This no longer happens anymore. It used to hurt me but found a way to adjust this. So much lighter than the Quest. Make sure to buy a wire rig that hooks to your wall, they're about 15 dollars and work incredibly for getting the wire out of the way. Even with Oculus Link coming out, this is a superb purchase and you won't regret buying this. Clarity and tracking are really fantastic for the price. And the lower refresh rate does not bother me. Highly consider it!

This new generation of Oculus VR headsets is best in class. They are so much easier to set up and use, without the need for room sensors. Incredibly fun and immersive.

I had originally looked into purchasing the Oculus Rift and loved the trial experience at Bust Buy with the Oculus rep. I couldn't make the purchase the as I was waiting to have some finance things taken care, Then the price went down and shortly after the Oculus Rift S was announced. I read the promotional info and am so happy I waited to make the purchase. The 'S' ROCKS! There are no external motion sensors as they are located in the headset. This allows for a more functional play space. I have been into 3D gaming for over 20 years and must say, this system is the best thus far. So happy with the purchase.

This is an incredible device I absolutely love. There are so many games to try now. The controllers' tracking is excellent. I absolutely love this.

I don’t know what to think or feel. This is an amazing product, but with lots of flaws and an almost inexistant tech support. Also, be warned that you really need the machine to handle VR games (which I have... and more). If you have less that the requirements, forget it. So, I love this headset, then I hate it. It’s so impressive, but also frustrating. The fact that we can’t do any adjustment to brightness (for example), and that the IPD is limited will give you headaches (and not the virtual ones). Been exchanging emails with tech support, and trying to find solution on my own regarding a few issues that many people have mentioned (please see other reviews), and I’m about to just give up. Not sure if I want to return the product, exchange it for the Quest 2, or keep it. But since I just got it a couple of weeks ago, I will take a few more days to decide. I guess that if I should have done my homework and read the reviews before buying this headset. Yet, it’s still a pretty cool device.
