Despite its other qualities, there is one glaring issue with the Oculus Go that myself as well as others have with it: the battery life. Because the Go does not need to connect to a PC to power it, it runs on its own rechargeable power supply. Oculus claims the Go will run for roughly two hours on a single charge (a little less for games, and a little more if you are just watching videos), and my testing showed that this claim is fairly accurate. The battery also dies while it’s just sitting there. If this sounds like an...
