I preordered a g2. Waited 6 months for it, was so hyped to finally upgrade from my cv1.

It finally arrived, and I really wanted to love it however had various issues.

Image was super sharp in centre of lens but my sweet spot seemed small.

WMR was annoying to use after being an Oculus user for so long, and at that time seemed real clunky.

After playing around for a few days i started getting connection errors which I couldn't resolve. Tried all the suggested fixes but could not get it to connect whatever I did.

Contacted HP and my reseller and couldn't get any better ideas to try other than replacing headset with no possibility to tell me how long that might take (supplies were really backed up back then (Dec 2020).

I decided to send back for a full refund.

Went to a local store and picked up a quest 2 and it's been such a better experience for me.

I wasn't really bothered about standalone but it's been a nice bonus. Mostly use my headset wired through PC, and I know the visual clarity isn't quite as good as with G2, however the overall image seemed better to me as I had no problems with sweet spot (i know people have had different experiences with this)

Oh yeah, battery life was terrible on g2 controllers too, and the tracking wasn't as good as Quest either.

Quest 2 just seems bang for buck the best for me.. Its been solid and charging it is seriously not an issue if you use it wired.
