The "Why I Still Love My Oculus Rift CV1 in 2026" Thread

I've gotten slightly tired of repeating all the awesome stuff about the Oculus CV1 on Oculus Subreddit and in here - so why not try to collect all the great arguments for still using the Rift...

The Rift CV1 is still my overall favourite out of the 10 headsets I own.





I'd probably say the same comparing Index to CV1. Not that the Index isn't great, using games and apps that take full advantage of the Index, Index is much better than CV1 - like in Alyx and Boneworks. But something like 99% of my games and apps were not made for Index, and I prefer CV1 for most of them. For all the reasons mentioned above.

I also just took the liberty and quoted you on the CV1 tracking, hope that's ok  o:)
