The Rift S has slightly better visuals than the Quest I believe (even with the Link), BUT the Quest is far more versatile. So unless you plan to be running it from your PC all the time, it's the more logical choice.
I want to use it with my pc, but it’s my 1st vr headset ever so will be trying everything, thanks for the support, like you say it’s the logical choice.
I have only experienced the Quest and currently I am really enjoying Alyx via link which I am finding very sharp. I have however read the various comments about Rift S being sharper / clearer despite technically having a lower resolution so assuming its all down to the video compression happening via link, its still in beta so hopefully they can make some potential improvements. One of the comments on a headset comparison using Alyx was the writing being legible on the gloves microchips on the Rift S, I definitely can't make it out on the Quest.
thanks for sharing your experience with the quest
it does seem with every update the link is getting better, glad your enjoying Alyx, looking forward to it myself now,
What's interesting is, people have reported Alyx via Virtual Desktop actually looks slightly superior to than via the Link. Better contrast. And they play basically the same...
Yep seen that you tube clip comparing the WiFi and link, you could def see it was clear detail on the WiFi , great videos
Ditto, I presume we've got the pre-order at the same place. Same decision for me too, long-term I'll be using for simracing so the rift s made more sense, but the portability of the quest makes it much more family friendly, so much more easy to justify the outlay if we can all play in the living room and cast to the shield.
Shame each day feels like a week at the moment, the 28th seems a lifetime away!
yeah I know there will be some compromise, but have never tried a rift s and never will, it will be the quest, and then the next gen WiFi headset after that,
ha ha just told my wife I’m getting a vr headset, I’m 52! She thinks it’s ridiculous he he, so think my wait might seem longer, she’s gonna remind me every bloody day why I’m not a kid anymore
