Quest 2 User Reviews and Impressions
Maybe nice to have a thread to collect Quest 2 user experiences? I'll be happy to start with one from Oculus SubReddit: First thing I noticed was the black levels are no where near as good as...

Also I saw another CV1 user complaining about the Quest 2 yesterday, didn't post it and wanted to see if the post got more momentum during the night - it did. Not sure I understand why some want to put all eggs in one basket - why not have more than 1 hmd connected to your rig - it's easy to switch active hmd in the Oculus Desktop app.
I'd be sad having to use CV1 for everything today, there are many games where all the lcd subpixels and the higher res totally shine.
Thus don't return Quest 2 because it's different from CV1 - keep both and learn to use them according to their strengths and weaknesses! And of course Oculus may need some time to optimize drivers and settings - early birds may need some patience.
I could not agree more with you mate. Putting all your eggs into one basket is not always a very good idea. However, it's equally not such a good idea to make a hasty decision to soon with any new headset like this Reddit kiddie has demonstrated.
I'm currently into day 2 of my Q2-Only PCVR experiment with Link. I've hung up all my other VR headsets (Rift cv1, Vive Pro, and Q1) and only intend to use my Q2 with my official Link cable with all my PCVR games/sims for the next 3 weeks. Obviously, if I find any fatal flaws I may shorten this timeframe down a bit. If things look to be going very well I may extend it. Again, the main reason I'm doing this is to help ensure that I work on learning how to get the best PCVR results out of my Q2.
It's still too early to report my findings but what I can say is that so far I have been able to play all my Oculus, Steam, and VivePort Store games and all my Flight/Racing sims with my Q2 w/Link. I'm currently learning how to make my Q2 as comfortable as possible and I'm experimenting with things like how to get the best battery life/runtimes, improve tracking, use OTT to help improve clarity/stability, and find the best Link startup/shutdown procedures. Once I've taken this all as far as I can I'll report back.
