As in the previous comparison of the Oculus Rift (S) and the Oculus Rift, youtuber takes on a 4K camera through the lenses of the glasses VR.

Oculus Quest 2: the failure of black level and letters

No wonder OLED display Oculus Quest, it seems, has the advantage in the first comparison of the black level. Although Rift (S) looks a little pale, you can see clearly in bright artifacts in the Quest 2. This leadership is melting away in comparison when playing Assetto Corsa. If you look at the stall, Rift (S) shows a more pure black and much richer color than Quest. While Rift (S) and especially the Quest output visible mosquito mesh on the image, this effect is clearly better to have Quest 2. The negative effect of screen Quest even more obvious on a Board with letters and numbers. The numbers on the right edge is almost not visible in the first line, and in the Quest 2 the last line can also be read. Even if black color will again become faded, here Quest 2 still looks better. Rift (S) seems sharper with the letters, but the numbers are very fuzzy.

Solution in Quest 2 is much better than the original Quest. Rough graininess in the picture almost entirely disappears. | Image: Reddit
