It has a flat focus. Its design is a refinement of the Oculus Rift DK1. It is a more basic headset compared to the Oculus Rift CV1. It has higher resolution than the DK1.

It has larger lenses than the DK1, which results in higher field of view, but you can see the black display edges. The resolution of the display is higher.

It uses a Galaxy Note 3 screen.[1]

The DK2 has the same facial interface as the DK1.

The DK2 has support for basic 6DOF tracking using constellation.
