Review Rift S

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello everyone. As promised Im writing a review. It is with a huge Joy that i can say Oculus is a great and serious, company made everything possible to get my rift s delivered before time so i could have it in Portugal when my family arrived from norway for christmas. My order never stop in any step for more than 1 day. It was awesome. Thanks for your resposiveness and your treatment. 
Now for the headset, Rift S makes everything feel so easy to use. Image is sharp and clear, the inside-out tracking and its 6dof got me in such a positive way. Im finding tracking só good , i havent had any troubles with it excepto when batteries ran low. But its took so many play sessions to drain the batteries. People complain about the audio, i actually enjoy it and its a good thing not needing anything inside or Over your ears(Thays my pov). I would give it a 10/10, awesome tracking, awesome price, awesome titles(oculus hás the best titles and its compatible with steamvr, to.play oculus games you wont need revive, which aint compatible with some oculus games). The controllers are by the majority of players considered the most comfortable VR controllers, and now they are upgraded. Overall i couldnt have got a better headset. It feels like you have the future in your hands. 
Thanks for everything Oculus. Im glad Ive chosen rift s ???
O hope you all had a great christmas and eish you a great 2020 ??

@GG_Aidyn18 - enjoy your Rift S, if you have not already picked up from previous posts, the sound can be improved a little by setting the Sound Control Panel option thus:

Good for those 'casual' sessions where high-quality sound comes second to being aware of others around you 🙂

I like bass boost as well, but am using earbuds plugged into the Rift S.

Its really a reiteration of the CV1 but the sound is a little poorer unless you plug in seperate headphones which really make the Reverb pop. And the visuals, did I mention the screen resolution? 2160x2160 make these a simmers delight, forget the controllers, they are pants, did I mention the resolution? 😉

Ive read some articles that for intensivos games they get a bit poor on tracking. Yeah the screen must be amazing ?

Do you play other games that would need controllers? If so what are you using?
That is the thing for me, whilst flight sims are my first love I also very much enjoy Touch games, having a blast this week with Asgard's Wrath. Just not sure another investment in a separate headset would be worth it for me for just my two flight sims. Pretty happy with Rift S with them, have good image quality and able to run some pretty high graphics settings. IL-2 I have basically maxed out and it is gorgeous. DCS also looks dang good with some high settings.
