Hi all, my daughter plays roblox and really wants a VR headset to play it on, I know nothing about VR headsets.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could guide me as to which headset would be OK for her and if she could run it with her cloudbook and if not what would she need?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
We have been looking at the occulus quest 2 and occulus rift.
This is her cloudbook specs
  • Display diagonal: 11.6"
  • Display resolution: 1366 x 768 pixels
  • Processor: N4020 1.1 GHz
  • Internal memory: 4 GB DDR4-SDRAM
  • Internal storage: 64 GB eMMC
 
The rift needs to be connected to a computer with far better specs than the cloudbook so count that one out.
The quest 2 can work with or without (its 'standalone' or untethered) a connected computer and is the better option for numerous reasons.
You need to find out if roblox is available in standalone vr on the quest 2. Ive just done a quick google search and it appears you can play it in vr, but im not sure if it needs to be connected to a computer or if its standalone (you need it to be standalone).
 
The notebook would definitely not be powerful enough to play vr on. The quest 2 definitely would be your best bet though, it's by far the best vr deal out there as long as you can stomach the required Facebook login and it can play games standalone without the pc. So far Roblox is not available for it without a pc but it seems like there's plenty of rumours that it may be coming out for the quest at some point!
Were you planning on getting her a pc too (as an upgrade would be required to play Roblox now) and if so what is your budget?
