hey not sure if i have defective unit but i just recieved my quest 2 and immediately noticed really bad god rays around text. if i dont look directly straight its very prominent. Makes using keyboard/ reading text nauseating. Whats crazy is with my quest 1 which is on exact same ipd not nearly as bad. Is it just me?

Sounds like the same thing i might be experiencing, text is pin sharp when i stay still but when i move there seems to be a halo effect coming off the text not directly in my eye line, certainly never saw this in the Quest 1. It's been the only thing that has bothered me so far, rest has been superb.

Just read a reddit post and there are loads of people mentioning this problem already............

I was trying out the tv viewing option and noticed that. I also noticed I could actually see the rings on the lenses when using the tv option. That was really bad and annoying.

I find them noticeable if it's white text on a completely black back ground or in an overall dark scene but that's about it?

I have the same problem. Will return them if there is not a fix within the next couple of days.

surprised none of the big reviewers mentioned this issue. From what im reading It seems like this problem is on all headsets  😞 
really my only complaint about the headset as it is so noticeable with esp with white texts, in game not so much. This really is something oculus should have focused on fixing

Same problem here in standalone on Quest 2. I wish the keyboard color or theme can be changed to avoid this issue.
