Oculus Go VR headset Feature and Price

The affordable Oculus Go is quite affordable for a standalone VR headset. It has its own built-in display, speakers and employs its own chipsets.

The Oculus Go flaunts a 2560×1440 screen, spatial audio output that can be used without headphones and is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 821 processor. It uses a controller that’s similar to the Gear VR’s remote, so developers are supposed to be able to easily build for Oculus Go and the Gear VR at the same time.

The Oculus Go VR headset doesn’t have inside-out tracking or fully tracked motion controllers, which explains the low price. The Oculus Go VR Headset has been priced at $199 (roughly to Rs. 12,500). It will hit retail shelves in “early 2018”.
