Optical handtracking for Rift S
Please make sure that - alongside Quest - Rift S will also get optical hand tracking. Parity between the headsets should be a high priority. Currently there's no clear commitment either way and Rift S users shouldn't be left out if there's not a serious, technical reason.

Oculus has been very helpful with any problems I've ever had. I can't believe how frugal everyone is over this issue. VR is in its infancy. I don't think that the RIFT S will be left in the dark unless it is due to the camera placement that makes it incapable of having this option; possible that is the case, however, come on guys... Of course the moment you buy a new type of technology, you're going to be left in the dust quickly. That's not Oculus's fault; and when you get the Valve Index, it's an even newer platform/style and you'll be left behind even faster! Be realistic. Be positive! I hope they come out with hand tracking for the Rift S, but I'm very happy -- scratch that -- EXTREMELY happy with the experiences that Oculus has given me and I'm fully aware that my investment is going to be burried under new technology advancements fairly quickly -- but I'll enjoy what I bought!

Make it happen otherwise jumping ship as by not doing it I would feel a bit let down to be honest. If you were going to be doing all this (pc connection/ hand tracking) for the quest then I think oculus should have informed consumers before they bought the rift s. Maybe oculus should offer a rift s trade in scheme so people can buy the quest. The very fact I'm saying this should be enough for oculus to think that some feel conned...

If this doesn't happen Facebook has lost a customer for life. And If more people don't start speaking up I'm sure they won't care.

Please, we don't need a date but just tell us if Oculus rift S will be able to get handtracking one day or not. It could calm the community.

Give Rift S hand tracking. I have a whole desktop for offboard processing, might as well take advantage of it.

Starting to feel like i made just a straight up mistake getting an S instead of a Quest every time there is any news released about updates. Please add incorporate handtracking to the S.
No real reason not to other than not wanting to commit openly to abandoning the device in favor of the other. -

Should have been on the rift s first

Please don't punish folks who spent extra money on the Rift S. The headset has the same number of cameras and this functionality should be a priority for the most expensive equipment option.

In my mind it wouldn't make sense for Oculus to not implement hand tracking with the Rift S since they are implementing it in the Quest.

Slightly annoyed that my Rift S is not getting this update, as the release of hand tracking for the quest was released a few days after i bought mine.
Really hope you implement it. Thanks.

Not really the best when it comes to words, but I would love to see the rift s get both Netflix and hand tracking. Kind of confused as to why the quest has Netflix but not hulu and vise versa

I think you shoud definitly add it to the rift s no doubt but if you do for some reason stop adding major apdates and new features to the rift s lower the price to at most 300 maybe 250. If you dont then consumers will stop trusting oculus brand stuff and will worry if they will be left out on the knew headset they got.

I want the Quest in link mode to work as a leap motion so I can play more games.

Don't alienate your core audience by putting more energy toward the quest. We work harder to run what you sell. It would be a divisive mistake to no give everyone who paid the same amount, in the same hardware generation, the same features.
