Original story (published on May 2, 2022) follows:
Rebranded as the Meta Quest 2, the Oculus Quest 2 is a VR headset developed by Facebook Reality Labs. It was officially unveiled during the Facebook Connect 7 in September 2020.
While the device has been praised by users for its upgraded internal specifications and display offering higher refresh rates, it was criticized by many since it required users to log in using their Facebook credentials.
However, a few days ago, users complained about black screen issues after the recent v39 update.
Adding to the trouble, Oculus Quest 2 users are now reporting that they are stuck at 72Hz refresh rate. It looks like the problem surfaced after the v39 update.
Many say they tried reinstalling the software and rebooting their PC but to no avail. You can see in the image below how the Oculus Quest 2 is stuck at 72Hz refresh rate after updating to v39.
Thankfully, Oculus support has commented on the Oculus Quest 2 issue where users are stuck at 72Hz refresh rate and said they are investigating the problem.
We hope the developers soon fix the problem as soon as possible. When they do, we will be updating this space to let you know so stay tuned for more information.
