The editors didn't like
Poor app selection
Needs more degrees of freedom
Right now
Virtual reality on the cheap requires either a piece of cardboard in which you precariously set your smartphone for some barebones “immersive” virtual reality
Or headsets like the Samsung Gear
Go does what it can to make "3DOF" head tracking feel comfortable
But new users may struggle with that cost-cutting limitation
The hand controller
On the other hand
Blows an opportunity to add better tracking or more buttons to GearVR's simpler scheme
Doesn't track position
Just one motion controller
Underpowered compared with tethered and flagship smartphone-powered headsets
Limited software library
Two-hour battery life. It's a sit-down experience (no room tracking). No expandable storage. No kid-safe settings. Lacks multiple account options
Battery only lasts two hours
Three degrees of freedom
Not as powerful as Windows Mixed Reality or Oculus Rift

Some smartphone reliance, Lacks room-tracking capability
Think of Oculus Go as Rift 1.5. At its core, the Go is a stopgap measure as we wait for Oculus to launch Project Santa Cruz, which combines the cordless all-in-one goodness of the Go with the positional tracking and room-scale abilities of the Rift. For $...
