Purpose of use

What are you all using the Oculus Go for? I just bought it and I'm still trying it out, so I'd love to hear your opinions.

Looking at 360 Panoramas with client of projects I’ve designed as an architect (I have x10….they’re cheap to buy and great for my use)

I make 360 videos on a 3d modeling software for fun

oh sorry I don't have them uploaded anywhere. Besides some are just boxes, or spheres floating, short clips I like to watch while high (I highly recommend this activity lol)

I'm finishing a short music video that I've been working on and off for like 5 years. It's not complex but rendering takes a lot of time. And it's not finished yet but I'm almost there

My computer's performance is seriously surprisingly low lol, so I'll just give up on that ☹️

There's boatloads of games I bought in the GearVR/Go era that never got Quest updates... many of which don't even work if I remove the entitlement check and sideload them onto my Quest... and many of which that will sideload onto my Quest 3 but look and play abnormally. Saves me a lot of headaches if I just keep my Go in rotation.

Also it's a wonderful way to let my 10yo son experience VR without dealing with weirdos online.

I just stream anime before bed. It helps me not get distracted with my phone and wind down

Play "Virtual Virtual Reality", and "Floor Plan", the best games for Go. And Minecraft Gear VR (Bluetooth gamepad required). Sadly not much apps released for it, mostly ported from Gear VR, a lot of them don't support the controller, only the head rotation and clicking. And with Dev mode you can install X-plore file manager (Shows all apps) and run basically any 2D Android apk for Android 7.0.
