Does the Quest 3 drain battery while using link?

Resni.
Honored Guest

I have purchased an Oculus Quest 3, and I have some questions related with the link feature.

Firstly, when connected to a PC for productivity/PCVR, does the battery of the headset maintain or does it slowly drain?

Secondly, does any usb-C 3.0 data transfer cable work? or is there a specific spec that needs to be met? 

Thank you for the time,

Hi there @Resni.! Thank you for reaching out to us with these questions. We love to see questions like this, since it shows how dedicated our community is! Providing insights to our users is super important to us, so we'd be happy to answer anything you throw our way. So for the first question, the device won't be charge but it will slow down how fast the battery drains. With the data transfer question, any cable should do the job for that but for Link, we would recommend our own cable or if not, at least a cable that matches the same specifications as ours. We hope this answers all your questions but if not, please feel free to reach back out to us at any time! Have a great day!

Thank you, you have answered all of my questions and I now understand how it works and what to use, i appreciate the effective and quick support you guys offer for the users.

Any solution for the draining issue or we're doomed to play ~2-3 hrs on PC then fully recharge Quest 3 battery?
