Oculus Quest vs Oculus Go: What's the Difference?

Are you trying to choose between the Oculus Quest and the Oculus Go? This video should help you decide!
Oculus Quest available here: amzn.to/2A4b4b6
Oculus Go available here: amzn.to/2X1UyS1
The Oculus Quest is one of the most popular tech products out right now and certainly the top VR headset.
The Oculus Go came out a year before and introduced Oculus to the mass market with a much cheaper headset.
I get a lot of people asking me which Oculus headset they should get and exactly the difference between the Quest and the Go. In this video I'll take you through the difference in hardware and most importantly the difference in daily use.
Can the Oculus Go play beatsaber? Is the Oculus Quest wireless? Which headset has the better screen? All answered in this video along with much more.
OCULUS QUEST VS OCULUS GO

    I agree with your review, and would like to summarize based on my experience working with creating content for a museum: Who may benefit from each headset: - Go: museums and visitor centers as part of immersive experiences, schools, eldercare (to get out and about into the world), exercise bikes, folks that are mobility impaired, simple training. Basically, as you said, people that want less intense games (or no games at all) and are focused on 360 video content (there is a lot already on KZread, NatGeo, etc etc). It is inexpensive to create 360 videos using

    Yeah, I even ordered Quest (still have to wait 2-4 days for it to deliver) without thinking, cause a lot earlier, in 2018 I watched an Oculus Go review from the gaming side. He used ALVR to play, he had good WiFi so it was cool, but still, because of 3dof he called it "a piece of s**t or a complete waste of money", and I mostly agree, again, from the gaming side.

    Its the best to buy the Quest 2 because it has more RAM, more pixels too, etc. The Quest 2 is also pretty cheap for its performance, however, Quest 2 is for rather for gaming. But u can still watch Netflix, KZread and stuff on the Quest 2. So the Quest 2 is a real prefer! If u already have the Quest 1 there’s no need to switch to Quest 2, it just has more pixels and stuff than the Quest 1. So if ur new to VR, go for the Quest 2 for budget, gaming and experience!

    I own both and I have to say I use the Go way more. As you stated the weight of the Quest is major drawback. Also the Quest requires a fairly large gaming area, which for many people is harder to achieve than you might think and I have a house(to much crap I guess😏). I usually just go out in the backyard in the evening. Some games are amazing on the Quest, like Vader immortal which IMO is short with little replay value. Mostly I just play Beat Sabre and Creed. Because I take my own 360 videos and photos the GO is my main VR headset.

For the things I enjoy the Go has a LOT of advantages. I suppose I'm lucky in that I can afford both and can pick and choose. Once the weight and comfort issue is addressed the Go will have little reason to exist.
