look up some of the accessories you may want so you can get them at the same time, personally would suggest going for the vive deluxe audio strap then you can print the adapters locally. Also look at the lense covers and a gun stock if your in fps games.I'm so excited to also get on the VR train.
Will be in Amsterdam for a day and I will be picking up a Quest 2 before heading back home.
My biggest problem is space! I have no more space to bring anything else back lol.look up some of the accessories you may want so you can get them at the same time, personally would suggest going for the vive deluxe audio strap then you can print the adapters locally.

Atleast you will save on some shipping costs
Nice. Returning my elite strap to Amazon for a refund and getting the DAS instead.So I did the das upgrade on my quest 2 was really worth it. Tried Pavlov last night and kinda addicted now 😅. Need a gun stock now because aiming sucks

Already going to be carrying the Quest 2 in my hand as Carry on...
But for the time being I will make due with just basic strap - It isn't as bad as everyone is saying and mostly people who upgrade it have been on VR for thousands of hours - I have maybe 1 hour total lol
Then I have a 3D Printer so I have done loads of research on all the parts I can print and have bookmarked things like the DAS adapters and Lense Covers
I am so desperate for space, I am considering leaving the Box behind and buying the travel case and carrying the VR like that lol
First world problems I know...

What method of attachment did you use for the DAS mounting? 3D printed mounts?yeah i had the elite strap but mine didn't have any break issues luckily, i sold it off because having a second headphone device was getting annoying so i switched to DAS for convenience, was the best decision ever, as much at the elite strap is comfortable the DAS keeps the HMD more stable on the head and really comfy with the easier audio solution.
A week or two of usage won't put me off lol - I am already this side and on my way home I am picking up the headset.i honestly tried the elastic with those tricks i saw on youtube and it was painful at the back of my head and abit at the front because of the unbalanced weight. its up to you if you want to take a chance but wouldnt advise honestly might ruin your first proper experience.
what if you print your adapters and take them with you then just fit the DAS and chuck the elastic and boxes, that way your still carrying one item in hand.
These are the 3D Mounts: Quest 2 DAS Adaptor (Franken Quest) by tanvachWhat method of attachment did you use for the DAS mounting? 3D printed mounts?
Which headphones did you order? Can one wear normal headphones like Sennheiser Over the Ear?Wonder how the sound of the DAS compares to the headphones I ordered. Might of been a better idea to just straight up go DAS, now that I take the costs into consideration.
Yip you can wear normal headphones. My Hyper X Cloud Alphas sit very comfortably over the strap. Only a small bit of contact at the top of the ear cup. The material strap is not an issue and elite strap is 2-3 mm thick so any overlap on a headphone with good padding won't be felt.Which headphones did you order?

I'd hold up on the bluetooth headphones for now. There' s way to much latency, even if it says it's low latency. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something. Went with the ones without the optional cable connection. HD350BT.
However I connect it to the PC and stream wirelessly with Virtual Desktop the audio is in sync, My motherboard says bluetooth 4.2 So I'm not sure what is up. Maybe the latency from Virtual desktop actually helps. Or my motherboard does something my Quest2 does not. I'm kind of confused atm.
It also doesn't support pirated games or other login methods besides forced FB - but usually the most 'unofficial' options are the bestI thought the Quest 2 didn't support Bluetooth Headphones? At least not officially.
Root is the more correct term. Jailbreaking is isolated to those crappy Apple devicesThe Oculus Quest 2 'Jailbreak' Seems To Be Fake
Sources suggest the first reported Oculus Quest 2 jailbreak is almost certainly not real. If you’re unaware; Oculus Quest 2 is an all-in-one virtual reality system made by Facebook. It runs Facebook’s VR-specific fork of Android. Quest is the first consumer VR headset (outside the...uploadvr.com

I would not buy anything other than the Quest2 at this point. And it's all you need to get started since it's fully standalone, with the added ability to connect to your pc so it's the all in one solution and also cheapest.I’m keen to try and get into VR. Any suggestions on a good cheap starter unit? Suggestions from Amazon in the UK are an option too as my sister there. She can bring it back. Even open to second hand options thanks in advance
Didn't seem to work for me? US or UK.Great, now Amazon has a 15% off coupon thing going for shipments to South Africa "ZA15"
Can get the Quest2 for under R5750 now.

...and the HP reverb G2 seems to be more for people who wants to play mostly car/flight sims.
Max discount is $20 (just something to keep in mind).
I don't get why people say this. It's appears to be a decent all round PCVR headset that sits nicely in between the Quest 2 and the Index in terms of price, better value than the Index better performance than the Quest 2 (but of course is PCVR only). If the concern is tracking (which isn't bad, most reviews have it as perfectly passable) then pair it with knuckles controllers for something still cheaper than the Index but better screen (though smaller FOV).
