I went hands on with the Oculus Quest at Oculus Connect 5 to see if the graphics in a mobile headset were capable of giving the user Rift quality experiences. As many have correctly noted a mobile GPU such as the Snapdragon 835 just cannot match the performance of a GTX 980 GPU. But with a few tricks games can come close to mimicking the look and feel of Rift titles. No matter what it won’t look the same, but it’s good enough for people to have fun and enjoy the games and software on the Oculus Quest.

I got to try the Oculus Quest 5 times (at OC5 and 3 times prior so 8 times total). A tennis game, a Dead & Buried game in a 4000 sq ft arena Mixed Reality experience with 6 players (all present and tracked in real time by each person’s Quest headset) I also got to try Superhot which look very much like it does on the Oculus.
