your welcome mate, ive never used the battery what comes with BOBOVR yet as i play PCVR with a link cable which puts a bit of charge while playing i can play for 4hr and still have 30% left on the headset battery. glad your liking the quest 2 i went from a rift s to a quest 2 and the upgrade was well worth it.

My son uses the Samsung Odyssey+.

Mrs. won a Quest 2 last month from a raffle.

I have the OG Quest, but use the Q2 now for streaming content since the screen is better.

I mostly use my Quest for Thrill of the Fight and Beat Saber.

Gratitude to @xtreemchaos for the BOBOVR info. I was intending to search for upgrades, since everything but the screen on Quest 2 is a step down from the first model IMO. Couldn't even keep the magnetic batter covers? BOBOVR with battery pack FTW. That will address the biggest complaints I have with it. Of course, it was free so can't complain too much.
I have Odyssey+ and got Quest 2 for my son. The Quest 2 has 50% higher resolution so I've grabbed it few times to use it and each time I reverted back to my Odyssey+.
Something about to have to enable link each time and if you alt+tab things like that will get the Quest 2 to disconnect and a lot of times and have to reboot the damn thing to connect again.
The picture is definitely clearer on the Quest 2 but if the FPS is well bellow the refresh rate the picture get's all jittery which never happens on the Odyssey+.
Also the picture on Quest 2 looks like it's upscaled sharp but looking little bit cartoonish in a sense I assume it's because it's USB only unlike the Odyssey+ that connects with HDMI+USB.

On another topic I finally figured out what was making F1 22 look blurry it was the AA that was set by default. Forgot what was and what I changed to but the picture got instantly better.
I've played F1 21 on regular screen and I can't stress enough how much better it is in VR.
VR headset is a must for anybody into sim games.

HP Reverb G2 V2 looks like a very good option but that thing will need to be paired with 6900xt to drive it right.

I have not tried Q2 with a PC yet. I use it in bed or the recliner to watch Amazon Prime VR, Youtube VR, that kind of stuff. I have used the 1st gen Quest with PC, but that has been over a year ago, and only for Nvidia VR Fun House, and a few demos. Have yet to try Skyrim, a racing game, or even buy HL Alyx yet. I think this holiday season will be when I commit to binging on all of that. I have never tried my son's Odyssey+ but he has always been happy with it. He does VR Chat and all the VR shooter games I have never played.
