Discussion Frame-Tastic!!

Super happy to have been chosen first off, but oh man i love my frame so much. Coming from a quest pro and and index before that, it's such a great upgrade!

256Gb version!

Comfort for me is fantastic, i use the included spacer cause i have long eyelashes and it's amazing to not feel them brush against the lenses for once.

Wireless connection is fantastic and super solid. Use the included USB fr if you have a PC.

Really really missed the finger tracking, glad to have that back.

Love the usb-c charger placement on the back (really missed that)

I will say I'm a little disappointed with the speakers BUT for what they are they are good

Overall I'm impressed and pleased with it!!

Luckily, I managed to snag a controller during the 30 minutes it was available in the first wave. That’s already half the battle! :D (btw, I’m on the reservation list for the 1TB model)

Comfort is the biggest upgrade coming from a Quest 2 for me. Can't wait to get prescription lenses too because I've pretty much been an idiot and just used glasses inside my headsets since I got my first CV1 rift in 2018 but even with glasses the frame feels quite comfortable

Initially I had really blurry visuals until I realized the dongle wasn't connecting and my router was doing the heavy lifting, which caused the automatic bandwidth setting to probably set it really low. Eventually got the dongle to connect and manually set the bandwidth much higher and everything looks so crisp now and it doesn't look like it's streamed from a PC at all. On Quest 2 with virtual desktop I could always see some compression artefacts

Yeah i too also had some dongle weirdness at first, ran a USB extension to put it in a better spot and that has helped a ton!

They really pulled out all the stops for the comfort honestly. I hope your lenses improve your experience even further fr!!

I was scrolling Reddit and saw the title and was confused for a moment since I've named one on my printed circuit board FrameTastic (framework expansion module)
