Is there a better alternative?

If you’re looking for a wireless out-of-the-box VR system, you won’t do better than the Oculus Quest. Competition is limited to the Oculus Go, which offers only three degrees of freedom and limits movement to your head, and the Lenovo Mirage Solo, which doesn’t offer nearly as many games and apps. But among wireless, smartphone-powered options, none currently match the Quest’s offerings in terms of tech, ease of use, and game/app selection.

　　

How long will it last?

At 50-plus games and apps, the Oculus Quest has a strong launch line-up right out of the gate. There’s plenty of existing Rift titles that will make the jump to the Quest, as well as upcoming games in development.

　　

Should you buy it?

Yes. If you’re interested in an all-in-one virtual reality headset with the strongest line-up of games and apps, the Oculus Quest is the best system currently available.
