It has higher resolution, lower persistence, more vibrant colors and less [[screen door effect]] than DK1's display. OLED's advantage over LCD (used by DK1) is that it does emits light and does not require backlight. It allows OLED to produce darker black and more vivid colors. Additionally, the Pentile matrix reduces some of the "screen door" effect while the low persistence display eliminates [[motion blur]] and [[judder]] almost completely. The only negative aspect DK2 when compared to DK1 is that DK2's field of view is a bit lower than that of DK1's. | ||
DK2 has an external camera that tracks your position. Within the camera's view, it tracks IR LED array in the front part of the headset to capture your head's position and movement within the 3D space. The CMOS camera is able to capture your movements up to 60 times per second. | DK2 has an external camera that tracks your position.

The DK2's display is literally the [[Samsung Galaxy Note 3]]'s display. If you disassemble the product and remove the display from its casing, you'll even find Samsung's branding on the display. Oculus partnered with Samsung to do this. | |||
The DC power supply brick for the DK1 also works on the DK2. | |||
