And I would also like to buy one. But as far as I understood a Facebook account which I refuse to create is required for that. I found conflicting information on that - would someone maybe care to competently clarify on that?

Do you need a Facebook account or not to use an OQ2?

As a matter of fact I still have an Oculus account from Go days and I just checked - it's still active apparently.

Got the following disclaimer after logging in:

Enhance Your VR Experience With a Facebook Account

To access social features, you need to log in with a Facebook account by going to Facebook Settings in the Oculus app.

What Happens if You Don’t Log In With a Facebook Account

You can use your Oculus account until January 1, 2023, but you will not have access to social features with your Oculus account. Starting January 1, 2023, we will end formal support for Oculus accounts, and you will need to log in with a Facebook account to access full functionality on the Oculus platform.

Still have very very fond memories of the Go. Virtual virtual reality and Wander f.x. were amazing experiences. But I sold the device in anticipation of a newer model and having been can't waiting now for it since several years ago. So that's due.
