I could not disagree more about disabling notifications. As someone who works from home, this feature is critical with me and insanely useful.

Interesting perspective 🤔 I can see how it can be useful to different people

i actually do use the double tap pass through quite a bit, if someone knocks on my door i can turn on pass through, look in their direction and at least pretend i'm paying attention to them.

[@Evol1HipHop]

Facts. Ive never accidentally turned it on…if it becomes a problem, I’ll probably turn it off, it until then…stays on. Lol

[@iambear.6526]

Same, I'm not even sure how you would even accidently activate it.

[@Dinool]

Same here.

[@GmanGavin1]

5:12 I've actually only used double tap pass through. Feature I use all the time.

[@BritishBoy]

Most of these can also apply to the quest 3, but i would recommend: - not turning off double tap passthrough -keep controller vibrations on high The quest 3 has a more important XR passthrough, so the double tap is a fantastic shortcut. The quest 3's controller haptics are vastly improved over the quest 2's and really help to add immersion. It doesn't drain the headset's battery life either, only the controller battery (which is already super good). Another side note is that the lenses are *physically* a couple centimeters from your eyes, but the lenses make them *optically* about 1.5m away. It's not as bad as you'd think.

[@eknomwolley]

OMG thanks so much! You’re a battery saver!

[@5avagegame567]

Bro I didn't ask for this roast, I just needed tips on my quest lmao

[@RSCOZZY]

Great video. Not everyone is comfortable with the standard settings, and I personally, always want to switch as many privacy settings as possible. I am not young, but certainly not old, so it's a principle thing for me.

[@mikeyilyatrax]

I literally just got a quest 2 so thank you dude

[@intis4r]

very informative thank you so much

[@PaperLaur]

I'll agree on the space sense. Good idea in theory, but also I have a *ceiling fan* right above me and I've never been more aware of it in my entire life Desperately need vibration on though because my vision sucks + my glasses are too thick for prescription inserts so I need all the non-visual feedback I can get

[@KPoWasTaken]

What's weird is VR is actually the only time I use controller vibrations. You said it was one of the worst vibrations but to me it really is important in VR but xbox/playstation controllers vibration is bad. Might just be because I play Beat Saber though

[@Acilius.]

Hey dude - I've been using this and other platforms for a good long while now - and your video did give me the motivation to make the effort and finish off the "fine-tuning" of the settings; granted, most of them I already had done, but not all ;-) anyway, well done

[@kaysarinc]

Glad I could help!

[@cockybirdlover]

wow thanks for this...very informative vid!!!

[@daviddifranco]

Double tap for passthrough is another amazing feature that I use all the time. Man, your list is questionable... 🤔 Edit: I like the vibration on the Quest 2 controllers. It feels a lot better than I was expecting. Another bad point on this list.

[@kaysarinc]

Thanks for your feedback. I personally don’t like the vibrations and always turn it off, vr or not. And for the double tap pass through, I can see how it’s useful but I personally don’t really like it much

[@daviddifranco]

@@kaysarincFair enough! I enjoy both. I just feel like telling everyone to turn it off is a bit aggressive. 😂

I suppose its per person, As i never use it, you can see through the gap anyway by tilting ur head back slightly. It becomes very annoying and its activated to easily.

Thanks for these tips 👍🏻

[@junai_sosa_media]

i have all of these on, "It will listen to your voice!" like it isnt already 24/7. (You have a phone.) "Turn off double tap passthrough", Why? It never turns on unless you touch the side of your headset. And it is TAP. Not violently punch your headset. I usually gently tap the side of my controller if somebody irl is needing my attention. Space sense isnt bad if you put it on the right setting, Along with its adjustable with 3 settings. Adjust as need. Controller vibrations are really immersive, Enjoyable! If your controllers are "Dying all the time!" get a charging dock or use rechargables/have more batteries. It doesnt take long to swap the batteries, But i do understand turning it down (not off though!) Recording, why would you use it? The only use i see for it is showing your friends quick clips. Not making entire videos. If you want that done, Link cable and pc! I think thats pretty simple. Or use Airlink since nobody likes a wire on their head. Recording just makes most VR experiences unplayable or unenjoyable during. Making hour long footage on your pc is probably much more efficient than having to transfer hundreds of clips to your pc with your phone. Permissions, Why? Understandable you should know what apps have access to your device, (Especially app labs or otherwise sketchy apps,) But some apps may have valid reasons or restrict features, I feel like it would just be a drag to open up settings for that reason and block the permissions, If its sketchy, Block the whole thing! Uninstall! This entire video seems shit out by somebody who didnt know their balls will grow hair.

For the space sence bro is going easy on it it outlines things that are not even in the boundary zone which makes it completely useless because there’s already a setting which makes you see if you’re outside the boundary Zone or not

with the wifi bands you could be wrong if the signal to the 5ghz networkis weak youd be better off on 2.4 ideally you'd need to be in the same room as the router for any benefit and that's providing you have good broadband

The WiFi tip is misleading. Although 5G is better for gaming, it is not great at penetrating walls. So in some situations 2G is better!

not even a minute in I have to prove a point, (not hate btw) most voice commands or voice assistants only actually start listening and recognizing words if you say a wake word, like hey Google, hey Siri, or hey meta etc and while your not saying the wake word, aka not trying to talk to the assistant the rest of the device is off, until you say the wake word

I agree. I've never understood the obsession with this sort of thing. We're all online these days... Our data hasn't been private in years. 😂

[@304SS]

@@daviddifranco yea like fr

[@TheTechDweller]

The issue isn't with these individual games having access to your info, it's those companies collecting that info and selling it off. The more information you share either actively or passively through open privacy settings, the clearer image someone can get of your digital fingerprint. All the information about you gathered from various sources collected and sold together, for any company to abuse in any way. 99% of the time this data is just used to sell you more products, more accurate ads etc. However in future, employers could access this data, see something they don't like, and automatically flag your job application before they even see your CV.

[@RSCOZZY]

It's a little thing called principle. Not everyone using these headsets are young and so carefree.

[@osteruliogaming.8668]

1:53 i wouldn't say nobody asked for it, u can use the voice assistant to launch games, like "hey facebook launch beat saber" and it launches it 'hey facebook turn of the headset" and it does it, navigating in very Ui is hell and using your voice helps its not like a phone where u can easliy scroll through the settings, its easier to launch a game like dat rather than scroling down with the touch controllers which is a waste of time

Or how about not smacking the side of your headset twice in a row? I've had my quest 2 since launch and only bumped into passthrough like 2 times, and it's been years. But since I have glasses and knowing you can't just, "Slide it up on your forehead" with glasses on, I enjoy the ability to tap the side twice to see something irl, like turning on a fan or grabbing the phone. So I'm not turning it off.
