I'm starting to like living in VR better than reality.
So true

Love the “ready player one” reference
Which one?
kolikiscool the intro I think he means
One tip I would like to add - Try using your Go both with and without the spacer inserted. The spacer is included for people that wear glasses to move the lenses a little further away. I wear glasses, and inserted the spacer when I first got my Go before even using it for the first time. It worked just fine, but I later saw a posting about someone that didn't wear glasses, and got a better viewing experience from using the spacer. It got me thinking about what would happen if I removed the spacer, and I found (for me at least) that wearing glasses and not using the spacer was a better viewing experience. So my tip would be, if you wear glasses or not, try using the Go with the spacer and without to find which is the best viewing experience for you.
And I know there are prescription lenses you can buy for the Go for those wearing glasses. I haven't got around to investigating those yet. I want to get to an eye doctor first and get an updated prescription (it's been a few years).
Thanks William! I am in talks to get some prescription lenses to show on the channel soon []-)
I put the spacer in, I don't wear glasses. My wife does. I can see just as good with it in.just adjust the straps so it's comfortable
Just bought a GO. Thanks for the info !
Another very useful video Mike 👍🏻 Thanks for the B-Team code 😎
Nice one mate!! Glad you got it, hope you have fun with the game []-)
Thanks Mate . Yours tips & Tricks are much needed. Keep them coming . I love what the future has in store for VR!!!!!!!
Couple of points - to change your environment, just go to Library -> Environment and pick one. No need to go through the tutorial.
When removing the facial interface, if you struggle to get it back on, the pieces of plastic that surround the lenses which the facial interface tucks under actually come off. So, if you struggle to get the interface back on, just remove the two plastic surrounds, put the interface in, and then clip the plastic surrounds back on top.
Thanks for the tips dude []-)
This was really helpful! I just got an Oculus Go and am loving it so far.
Hi....my name is Gregory and I'm new to oculus go family I wondering if you would to friends on oculus

Is the go worth it ? And can you play games like Star Wars and throw your saber and stuff ?

You're Underrated man. These videos are super useful
Thanks very much mate []-)
Thank you so much for posting this!!

Enjoy Jose! []-)
I will buy one for my dad
Thanks for covering us Mike!
Always got you covered bro []-)
Mike you're tips helped big time, thanks buddy!
You're welcome bro! Having fun with your Go? []-)
Cheers m8
Great one stop for new users. Nice job. Thanks
Thanks Jamie []-)
Ha, saw this pop up within 6 minutes.. Watched, commented. Codes gone. Man, I'm old and slow.
Gotta be faster dude. I sometimes post some on my community page and Discord []-)
watching this thru my oculus go. 🤣🤣
You're the real MVP ScreamingBlaze! []-)
Then how are you typing
@@julianr7124 With the oculus go obviously...
@@julianr7124 You can type inside the Go. It gives you a virtual keyboard to type with

Thanks sooo much I was stuck on the Xbox controller for a long time because my friends controller would always connect and then mine wouldn’t and we would always wonder and then it made sense because he had the one X and I had the One so now it makes sense thank you and great video keep it up 👍👍👍
Finally! A review with some important content ! Thank you ! Since the headset is paired with my phone, can I access content on my SD card ? For example, if I have movie files on my SD card, can I watch them in the theater program ?
Thanks! One of the top features I'd love for someone to figure out is how to screen share/cast the Oculus Go to a phone, laptop or TV. That would make the headset hugely more entertaining and useful.
Yeah, there is a way but it involves sideloading an app called Vysor. Feel free to check it out but I’m a bit concerned about sideloading apps as I don’t want my account blocked or anything []-)
I've heard rumors that it may be added in a future update. No timeline as to when, though. And, as I said, only rumors at this point, which may or may not come to be.
You can share what you see on Oculus Go through live streaming it to your facebook account. If you don’t want any of your friends to see it, just set it for only your account. After your done, just delete the video from your facebook account.
Yeah but if you pick that method there is a long delay vs real time and also the resolution is lower than even SD. Vysor doesn't have any of those issues. I did find that even my gaming setup had trouble hitting the potential full frame rate and resolution options.
Thanks. Some really useful information.
hey brother!! I really dig your videos and all the detailed information in them. you've saved me a lot of headaches. I already had ordered a hard case but very happy to hear about the Anker power core!! Anker is my BRAND!!! I ordered it and the Anker core case immediately after seeing this. God knows I LOVE watching movies in my own private theater!!! always got the best seat in the house. Looking forward to seeing what you do next.
you can remove the frame on the lens. in that way is more easier to remove the cover.
Great video. Good tips, its going to be easy to set my Go up when I get it.
Thanks Brandon, always happy to help out []-)
Great video. You are one of my go to people for all things VR. Appreciate the time you invest.
Thanks very much mate! Glad to have you here supporting the channel []-)
64Gb version out for delivery today, really excited to try my first VR experience. Have heard that 'Wander' is the best streetview app, looks really cool!
Wander is really great! I plan to cover it in a video in the near future []-)
This is awesome. Looking forward to great Go videos from your channel. Subscribed as well :)
Cheers Anish []-)
Thanks for the awesome tips!
Thanks for the comment Timothy []-)
I didn't realize I wasn't subbed. I just saw your vids on the home page and thought I was subbed because of it. Okay now i'm subbed.

Thanks for the support Charles! I really appreciate the comment mate []-)
Your beard is ON POINT! 😎👍🏾
Thanks, I have been stumped on how to transfer files to my headset. I have a Mac and needed to install Android File Transfer but could never get it to work. I didn't know I had to go into the headset and select Allow to connect.
How to take out the facial interface for a wash - nice one!
Gotta keep it fresh Zim []-)
Thank you!
Muchas gracias por los consejos, excelente contenido. :)
You're welcome Andres []-)
Habla brother
Had no idea about void theater in Netflix!! was wondering why plex had the feature to move and resize the screen but Netflix didn't haha! thanks!!
Glad I helped WildRose []-)
Putting the Oculus in Travel mode is also a good way to watch stuff. As you turn the screen turns also.
I'm not familiar with Travel Mode. Can you elaborate? What is it and how do you activate it? Thanks in advance!
Remove the clips round lenses b4 removing foam infill.
Yo i love your vids you put in so much effort and should have alot more subscribers. Keep up the good work!
Cheers Thomas, I really appreciate the comment mate []-)
EXACTLY WAS BOUT TO WRITE
Great tips I appreciate
I appreciate the comment Andre! Thanks dude []-)
Great video and tips, thanks a lot. I have both rift and go and enjoy both. The best would be the mix of both devices which is santa cruz but I guess it wont come out before the end of 2019! And I wonder how will they support 6dof hmd and controllers? Totally new games or will they modify PC rift games and some of the GearVR library?
Great channel man! Oculus Go is my first venture into VR and I’m really enjoying it! I was watching a show in Hulu and my Oculus Go would go to sleep after a while. Does anyone know how to increase the time on the auto sleep feature? Or completely disable it? Thanks!
Yeah, this happened to me a couple of times whilst watching Netflix. I guess every now and then you have to move the controller as there is no sleep setting to adjust right now []-)
These tips are great! I’m thinking bout saving for one or even asking for my birthday. I’ve tried vr with iPhone headsets. The fov always felt tiny and I’ve tried htc vive and really loved it. I’m looking at this for watching movies and videos, my question for you is, does the fov feel as big as the htc vive or is it noticeably smaller? Small fov is the biggest immersion breaker for me personally. Thanks!
I finally ordered the Oculus Go from Amazon now waiting for it in the mail
How is the quality of video?.
@@sunnygeorge4152 Very good the only drawbacks are no forwards or backwards motion tracking and only one controller but yes picture can even display the Facebook wall of text good.
Great video 👍I work in retail and I had a doctor customer who needed a v. R for his patients but the oculas rift was not a good pick as he has no powerful computer. Shame its not out I would have recommended the oculas go for him.
Cheers Jay []-)
I was concerned about PPD of 72 due to a number of articles I read prior to the OG being available. I'm very glad to report that with the glasses insert I don't have any problems with the OG so those with a large PPD should not shy away from at least trying the OG.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing Donald []-)
Great video!
Please put Game codes in description. Besides that you’re awesome!
i want to get an xbox one controller but i only want to use it to play certain games and still use the oculus go controller to navigate the home screen and for all my other apps. how would i switch back and forth between both controllers? will they both stay paired to the oculus go or do i have to keep unpairing and re-pairing the controllers every time i want to switch?
Good review !
Thanks Jason! []-)
Thanks for that lock one because my lil bro is always on it and is really annoying. So thx a million
Awesome Video 👌 do ps4 Controllers work with it as well?
I'm pretty sure they do
Why would someone dislikes such a helpful video?
Thanks.
Thanks Dennis []-)
I think it may unofficially support fast charging. I haven't really got a point of reference as I have never tested it plugged in after it overheated when I left it to charge on day one (though I have seen many claim it takes about 3hrs to recharge), but I got a Sandstrom Gold Series 20100mAh power bank and I can see it charging quickly as I use it with it plugged in to that (it does fast charging if your device supports it). Mind you it could be because its does up to a 3A charge, and even though it says 2A in the Go manual, 3A may charge it quicker. If you have something 3A charger hanging around, like a Raspberry Pi 3B/+ PSU, and/or a fast charger for the phone like comes with high end Samsung phones, it may be worth trying them to see if it charges faster than the 2A slow normal charge.
Yeah exactly. I have the same thing. The Anker pack charges it whilst playing. It’s great, I’m never out of juice []-)
I have a Samsung quick charger and can confirm, regrettably, that it still takes about 3 hours to charge. I’ve even tried my iPad Pro charger and it still takes 3 hours.
I just subscribed to you because you opened with "Welcome to the Oasis" if the rest of your channel is as awesome as the name I'll be here for a while lol
Awesome vid
Thanks mate []-)
im waiting on my filehub to arive. once I learned what it was I knew it would be essential to the go till otg storage is a thing.the filehub is bassicly a powerbank crossed with a travil router with builtin sd card slot and usb for connecting up to 4tb hd to the builtin upnp dlna server
Yeah, I saw someone post about this in the Oculus Go Reddit. It looked really interesting. Thanks for sharing dude []-)
To change the background you can also go to navigate-library-environments.
Nice tips... for the background, you can just select 'Environments' to change it without using the Tutorial.
Really!? Where is environments? In the headset or the app? []-)
right above the tutorial button you used ;)
I’m such a noob! Thanks mate []-)
My Oculus Go arrives tomorrow!
Nice! Now that you've had it for a couple of days. What do you think? []-)
It's amazing! I have a Samsung Note 3 phone which Oculus says isn't supported, but it works with it just fine. I was also afraid that I would get nausea from using it, but that hasn't happened. I'm very pleased.
I'm delighted but be aware, you cannot set up the headset bluetooth without a data connection.
I'm 62 going on 22 and amazed how the resolution has advanced.
I'm on a boat so the movement adds to some experiences.
Its wonderful truly wonderful.
I finally decided to get an Oculus GO and bought numerous apps to try it out, had it for 2 weeks, but had to return it because I got nauseous whenever I used it. I am not happy about that because it was really awesome... :(
Oh no! What in particular was making you feel ill? []-)
I don't know..., just felt like I had motion sickness. When I returned it (sadly), the girl at Best Buy said that others had the same problem. It took me a while to be able to do first shooter in my Skyrim game, but I tried with my Oculos GO - bought different apps and stuff..., just couldn't make it work for me. I am so disappointed - I have waited and waited for an affordable VR that I could use. I guess I won't bother with the Skyrim VR.... Sad. :(
You may already know this. The motion sickness is a problem with all VR devices, not just Oculus Go. It's caused by the body thinking it is moving, but actually not moving. This is like sea sickness. Some people have it; some people don't have it. The good thing is that after you get used to it by playing only 15 minutes at a time or something like that for many days, you become immune to this motion sickness, just like people can get used to be on a ship.
Another thing to know is that all Oculus Go apps comes with a Comfort Rating. The game with the rating "Comfortable" are much less likely to cause this motion sickness feeling. So, if you are likely to experience motion sickness, start with "Comfortable" apps.
Ihuojh kbhhjkuvytujhttytyyoppgswq is I joy bmhkkpnugreenbeagle13 yeh lol judge and jlpppopppoxcvvvgjmm
Question??? The right side of the oculus where the speaker is located is the plastic where the strap in is it supposed to come off???
I want to get an oculus go but I want a cheap way to pair a second controller I allredy own joycons so could you do a video on how to pair joycons to the oculus go?
In the changing your home screen picture. Instead of starting the tutorial click one above that, I think its called environment
I really thought this video was helpful!!!
there seems to be vids out there that allows using an additional controller--in the form of a phone, ps vr controller, etc., If so, can you just buy a second go controller and use that as a second controller? if not, why?
Great tips, thanks. Are there any apps for watching movies stored on the Go that allow greater freedom of size and laying down, like Netflix?
Nope, not right now []-)
When taking the facial interface out, you are supposed to remove the frames around the lenses.
Can you use valve knuckles with the oculus go? I know you can on the rift with extra steps but I would like to save some money and buy the go and separately get valve knuckles.
Hiya how much space is on the 32GB go for games.Take its like phone space taken up with system files?
Is there a good planetarium / astronomy app for the Go?
For the facial interface washing for Oculus Go. Does it work the same way as Oculus Quest's facial interface?
hey mike, is the Oc Go and Rift heavy on your nose/face for long usage? or is there any tips to spread the weight distribution on my head? I haven't got my VR yet but I plan to play normal games in things like Big Screen n stuff :) appreciate a reply, thanks!
The Go is really comfortable mate and I don't find any pressure on my nose or face.....I have been using VR for almost two years now so maybe I just don't feel it anymore lol []-)
i get occasional bouts of vertigo. Would you suggest me trying this ? I cant believe its all bad enough to trigger it.
I already own a gear vr but my vr sessions are limited due to my Samsung S8 over heating and so I was going to a buy the oculus Go. Will I have to repurchase all my games/apps or will I just log into my oculus account on the Go and my purchased content will download/appear?
All your games from Gear on your Oculus account will carry over []-)
Hey Mike. Thanks for another wonderful show which helped completely with pairing my SteelSeries controller with the Go amongst many other tips I needed. This also gives me a chance to request some info from one of your previous videos and hope you can help me. I just recently purchased a basic interface set with Red interface replacement from vrcover.com and have been notified that my order is dispatched and en-route however I have also been informed that they do not make the Red interface anymore and a black one has been sent instead which honestly defeats the object of my personal design requirements. However in a previous video you mentioned you personally spray painted your interface blue to which I am quite capable and my question is can you please give me the color code or name of the shade of blue you used which would save me a lot of time trying to discover the right one to match yours. Also did you use an acrylic or enamel based spray paint? Cheers and I hope you can help with my question. Regards Mike []-)
Hey mate, strange that they've stopped doing the red. I liked that it made the Rift stand out. Shame. I don't recall the colour code of the blue I used? It was a matt light blue. The brand I used was Plasti-Kote which is made for plastics, just ensure you give it a light sanding all over first and use a Plasti-Kote primer []-)
Virtual Reality Oasis Thanks again Mike that's great info as is you channel and production. I amongst other things really like the reminiscent of Ready Player One intro using the Vive and Oasis logo on the side straps which look really cool and another design I'd like to steal off you Lol. In regards to the color code this is not a prob and I know B&Q have a large selection of Plasti-Kote colors and I'm sure I'll find it there. Also I'll make sure to use the Plasti-Kote Primer also so cheers for your time and recommendation/information. Have a great evening and I look forward to your next video. Mike 😀
1:09 hey ! Did you notice the environment button before the tutorial one ? Well it’s exactly for that 😁
I think that is ironic is that on my autoplay playlist, that is your video on how the end of the Oculus Go (Dated June 2020)
Hello, you have suggested very good tricks in this video, thanx👍
But i want to ask about trick No.4(transferring files from PC). If i wish to use my mobile phone(iphone & android both) instead PC, subject to files moving into my oculus go device, is this possible?
And can i install apps in my oculus go as i do in my android phone? Please...
Great video. Dumb question: just got one... I have my home screen set to the “beach” background.... what’s the easiest way to clear ALL menus and just see the beach? Or can you recommend a good app that has live VR video of scenes like that so I can just have the most simple VR experience of feeling like I’m elsewhere without a bunch of menus in front of me? Thanks!
Would love to know too
even better tip! Turn on the Oculus Go FIRST, then put it on and grab your usb link cable and blindly search for the hole and connect it. Then choose "allow" in the headset. A lot of times when you connect it first then turn it on, it does not detect your computer.
Hey, something I just found out. Plex will play 180, 180 3d, 360, 360 3d videos!! I tested it and it's awesome!! You should do a video on that!!! I run some on youtube but sometimes the stream buffers a lot. But running locally it's FANTASTIC!!! And in FULL QUALITY!! I was already using the Plex VR app to watch my 3D movies on the GO, QUEST and RIFT S... But now! Woohoo! It is the best way I have found to play ANY local content...
And no I am not affiliated with Plex... lol
Another Oculus Go Tips: You can transfer your videos to your headset directly from your media server. Simply go the gallery, and you'll see your local media server (I'm personally using a very basic SMB server generated by my home router). In gallery click the [...] icon and download the movie. You'r now ready to take your movie anywhere. Note that you can also watch them directly from your network without downloading anything when you are at home ;)
Great tip! Thanks for sharing mate []-)
Still have to careful with that strap when its charging though as it still switches it back on. I have tried the recommendations I have seen from others but its still gets switched back on if that sensor is tripped when its recharging, flipping the arms up and leaving it face down is the only thing that reliably solves this from happening and getting an overheat warning for me. Seems like an android thing, even if your phone is switched off, it partially powers on to show its charging, so no surprise that this does it as well, its just that this also has something that can trigger it to turn on completely as well and keep the screen on.
Thanks for the tip dude []-)
Does it look the same on your OG as what your showing through the video? Doesn't seem blurry? Just bought one, and I do notice blurry home. Any way to fix that? I have recalibrate a few times already..
Can I use any bluetooth controller? I just bought a used Go and it wont pair with the controller it came with, nor do the volume buttons work to select the screen option like people say. So basically I can't do anything with it
Hi a guy on youtube shows using a 40X20mm fan to cool down the oculus go when it gets too hot. I bought the fan but the only thing i did not like is that he used magnets to hold it onto the oculus face. So I'm into 3d printing and just made a Fan Holder that you just clip on and easily take off. If this is something you would be interested in, let me know. I could put up the link for people. thanks
Is it possible to watch netflix or play games laying down yet? That'd be reason enough for me to buy one, gotta give my back some rest :P
Yeah, you can watch Netflix and browse the internet laying down []-)
I’m watching this on the go
Do you happen to have a solution for the wretched problem of the controller locking all movement to forward (instead of sideways or back)? I can't find anything on the web, other than replacing the controller, which is a pain. =)
Can you plug the Oculus Go into a USB while using to never run out of the battery life while using? If so, what type of USB cable would you recommend.
I’m getting an oculus go tomorrow
Nice! Are you getting the Rift or Go? []-)
Oculus go
Is there a way to disable the "allow access to media" message that comes up when I want to load content via USB, drives me mad.
Silly question, I found your video via my recommendations and I'm quite interested in VR - also happen to own a Vive and Lenovo Explorer myself.
Sadly, there aren't really any standalone VR HMDs here in Europe other than Oculus devices.
Can I somehow use the Go without Facebook?
I mean... it's basically an Android device anyway.
MegaManNeo yeah you can
