The Oculus Quest 2 Has A Problem...

Ғылым және технология

In this video we attempt to do a Oculus Quest 2 battery replacement. I was surprised by how difficult the process of accessing the battery was. Repairs like this are why we need to stand up to companies Meta who are making products harder and harder to repair. Hope you guys enjoy this one, the repair took almost 4 hours.

    It's a big step up from the Quest 1 which you could not replace the battery for at all, in any way. Hopefully the Quest 3 is better in this regard. In the end, Meta knows that VR will advance faster than these batteries will die. 90-99% of users will just throw out their Quest 2 when it dies, because by the time that happens, the Quest 4 will already be out. Even if you fix the battery on the Quest 2, it's still barely going to be able to run future VR games (hell it barely runs some VR games now without crashing)

Part of the right-to-repair movement stipulates that the battery, if nothing else, should be replaceable to extend the life of the device. We live in a disposable electronics world, but I want my 3D headset to last at least as long as it is supported by the software.

    i feel like companies intentionally do this, but not fully. they do it so that people don't get encouraged to repair the vr and instead buy a new one, thus, more money. and also because of sacrifice, since VR's actually have to FIT on your face, it has to be compact, leaving little space for a battery

    @originalname9789 that's not true because every major company I can think of offers repairs if your device is out of warranty. If your warranty has run out and your quest 2 has an issue you can't repair yourself, you can send it to meta to fix. If your ps5 breaks, you can send it to sony to fix. And there are also repair shops that will fix most electronics, like the guy on this channel. So no they aren't made in a way for you to buy a new one when it breaks, because they're repairable, even if you can't fix em someone else can. Something truly unrepairable would be a device that can't be disassembled non destructively, you would have to break it to open it

    The Quest 1 has its battery in the same location, but the surround on it is actually four panels rather than a one piece frame, all you need to do to get to it is remove the strap mounts, peel away the fabric, then undo all the screws to peel the front and rop penels away and you get full access. This is a massive step backwards, despite the generational increase forwards.

I didn't bother fitting the battery since I doubt it would have much more life in it than the original it was to replace.

    An easy solution would be to have the battery mounted remotely to the back of the head strap, with a robust replaceable coupler to the headset. This would actually give superior weight distribution, because it would counterbalance the headset. I work in engineering, part of design is keeping service in mind.. but these companies aren't incentivised to do so.

    first things first, excellent dissemble and reassemble. secondly really nice video editing too. Designing a headset with a external battery would reduce weight, thereby increase user comfort and also heat issues arising from battery discharge further loading battery consumption to fans. Must be the reason why they are designing it this way, keep heat source away from the circuit board. By putting the battery out front, dramatically increases the wieght load on the users nose, which could be overcome by tighting the headband causing stress headaches. Solution, remove battery altogether, add a usb c port to a redsigned faceplate with air vents easily manufactured on a 3d printer. Attach battery to a belt, back pack.

    If the battery is on the outer side, it will cause the weight imbalance and lead to heavier front side that will cause pain on the nose over longer period of time. It's a logical design for the battery to at that place for the balance and comfort of user. Besides, external strap attached battery packs are available to use.

    I've had my Quest 2 since launch, and I still use it. I have noticed the battery isn't fairing too well. I've found it dying much sooner than it used to, and it also can get hot after extended gameplay. Though, to be fair, I have a 10,000mah battery strapped to the back of the strap that I frequently use so that may be affecting things. Interestingly, my original Oculus Go now no longer works unless it is plugged in. The batteries in these standalone headsets definitely are what is keeping them back.
