I regularly wear my Quest for 9-10 hours a day. It's plenty comfortable with the right equipment. I forget I'm wearing it after a while.

Quest 2? You re some kind of world champion, most people get tired

  Tired of what? I don't understand. I have a very comfortable third-party head strap (BOBOVR M2) and cooling facial interface so I don't really notice that I'm even wearing a headset after a few minutes.

    Do you have any negative side effects? My brother has sinked many hours into it and it seems to have become a huge issue for him socially in the “real” world.

      I feel light headed and forget to fully touch my phone screen outside of VR (thinking just pointing at it will work, as it does in VR). But only for an hour or two after taking off my headset. Not sure what you mean about socially? I can't see how interacting with people in a virtual space would have any strange effects on how I interact with people in a physical space. I don't really see a difference between chatting in a group around a virtual table versus a physical table.

As a friend pointed out, the stated battery life would have o just barely been enough for the keynote O_o

  The Quest 2 only gets about 1.5hrs at full FPS. I can extend that to 6 with a battery pack in my pocket, which can be hot swapped for another 6 hours. I also have a 16 foot USB-C cable hanging from the ceiling with retractable hooks for infinite plugged-in use.

I managed maybe 45 minutes at a go before face sweat/itch, eye strain, muscle ache, and nausea set in. The novelty wore off rapidly, it sat around for a year, and I sold it off. I wanted to believe.
