The Oculus Quest 2 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Platform processor and 6GB of memory to offer even more immersive experiences. It comes with Facebook’s highest resolution display ever and weighs less than the original Quest. The newly redesigned controllers offer better ergonomics. And Quest 2 now offers longer battery life. Quest 2 is compatible with the Quest library of content and can play Rift Platform games with Oculus Link for an up-leveled PC VR experience.
