    I was on the fence upgrading from the Quest 2, but I'm glad I did! The experience is substantially improved IMO, and I'm really enjoying going back and replaying games with the improved resolution and comfort. AR functions are really neat, and I can't wait to see what other improvements and additions come down the road!

    It’s fun to have a VR headset don’t give me wrong. It is great quality and I do suggest anybody who wants a VR headset to get the quest three but if you have a busy life and you aren’t very interested in using a vr headset all the time expect it to be in a shelf for a while i got mine ysed ut for three hrs and never used it again

    Excellent product overall. It has a good amount of built‑in storage so I don’t have to constantly delete files, the sound quality is clear and full, and the image looks sharp and vibrant. Very happy with it so far and would definitely recommend.

    A massive leap in tech from the quest 2, and with the better resolution and faster tracking; PCVR games are better than ever. Not to mention the mixed reality games are definitely worth a try!

    Hands down one of the best VR systems out there. Graphics are amazing, the sound quality is a step up from the Quest 2. The headset is lighter on my head. I love the at I can see what’s around me a little better while I have the headset on. Love that it came with a game although I had to wait for the release date to download.

    Amazing piece of tech! Worth every penny and we haven't really seen it's full potential. There are so many great titles coming soon that will for sure keep me coming back for more! Only negative is the battery life but no big deal. If you have a power bank connected or a really long USB C cord with adapter connected to outlet you'll be ok.

    It's a massive step up from the Quest 2, and I myself hand been wondering if it would be worth the expense. But I quickly found that it resolved all of the friction that prevented me from really playing with the Quest 2 as much as I'd originally intended. The auto-scanning for a playable area is amazingly accurate so you only have to make a quick adjustment. If you want to go get a drink, you can just double-tap the right side of the head strap and it switches to passthrough mode immediately – and it no longer looks like you are holding a 2001 cell phone video up to your eye. The hand tracking is also cool when it can be leveraged. The visual fidelity is much higher in this. The only downsides are that it's got a short battery life and I periodically encounter a weird issue where it loses tracking entirely while gaming and the world starts spinning – you have to close your eyes and reset it. I think that issue is because I prefer to not shut it off and just set it on the charger. After a week it tends to do that and I need to hard reset it. The upgraded version with more storage is also quite pricey.

    I recently purchased a VR headset for my son at Best Buy, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! From the moment I walked into the store, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming staff eager to help. The selection was impressive, featuring the latest models and accessories. The associate who assisted me was incredibly knowledgeable about the products, patiently answering all my questions and helping me choose the perfect headset for my son’s needs. They even offered great insights on the best games and additional gear to enhance the VR experience. The checkout process was seamless, and I appreciated how the staff ensured I understood the return policy and warranty details. Once I got home, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the setup was straightforward, and my son was over the moon with excitement! Best Buy truly excels in customer service and product quality. I highly recommend this store for anyone looking to purchase electronics. My son’s joy and enthusiasm for his new VR headset are a testament to the excellent advice and service I received. Thank you, Best Buy.

    Really good headset for the price. I think it comes with a lot of features and tech for the amount you’re paying. I will say that playing it as a PCVR isn’t the best experience with a link cable. I think it’s more meant for staying alone.

    I first started playing VR when the original PlayStation VR launched, and while it was exciting at the time, the experience was far from perfect. Fast forward to today, and Meta has completely transformed the VR landscape. With incredible performance, outstanding quality, and immersive fun, Meta has set the standard for what virtual reality should be.

    Fun Headset

    After being granted permission to play with my granddaughter's Quest 2 at Christmas, I decided that it was pretty cool. I purchased the Quest 3 shortly after Christmas. It was not cheap, but I am glad that I spent the money. It comes with First Encounters which is a simple but fun shooting game that shows what can be done with Mixed Reality (something which the Quest 2 cannot do). I put Fruit Ninja on there for a simple slashing game. Wanting some fitness apps (trying to help justify the cost), I installed PowerBeatsVR and Hitstream. Both are engaging and give a decent cardio workout. I tried Snow Wars, but that quickly gave me motion sickness. I have tried Premium Bowling and Walkabout Mini Golf. Both are good, but I have not yet tried multi-player mode, which would make them more engaging. I am still looking for a game that fills the Wii BoomBlox void. Angry Birds VR is kind of close. The headset fits over my wife's glasses without a problem. The Meta App library is not huge, but it has enough for me. It is not well organized, so it takes some wading to find what you are looking for.

    Loving my Meta 3

    I love the new Meta. I have a previous model and all the updates with this version make it much more enjoyable. As another reviewer suggested, I decided to get the bobo VR headset with it and love the ability to have hot swappable batteries so I can extend the life of the unit. Without it I was having to stop mid game often as my headset was running out of battery life. Being able to watch movies on a huge screen had been very enjoyable also. Also after buying when the updated lower tier version went on the market I saw they dropped the price. I was upset until I realized I could get a price match. It was one of the quickest service I’ve ever had. The sales rep verified my account and in under an hour my account was credited the over $100 difference. Thank you.

      Hi there!

      Thanks for the great review on your new Meta Quest 3!

      We see that you are looking for longer gaming experiences, it may be a good idea to pick yourself up a Quest Elite Strap with Battery as it can provide up to 2 hours of extra game time!

    Battery life stinks but really enjoy the rest of the VR experience, also being used for PCVR. After buying an aftermarket battery head strap the battery issue is negated, but just leaving the headset sit idle not plugged in you will always come back to a dead battery because they constantly update in the background. You can turn this off but when you want to use it, have to let it update.

    Coming from the quest 1 to the quest 2 to now this quest 3, I have seen the quest line continue to jump- and this finally feel like the first REAL quest! Quest 1 was too underpowered and games ran but not too well, quest 2 ran games better but it still felt underpowered and not ideal for multitasking… but this quest 3 finally have JUST enough power to play all uts games butterly smooth, and I can play a game- hit the home button and respond to a Facebook message, and return to the game without closing it! I enjoy booting up and getting into games then my quest 2 friends. The pass through is - usable. I did wash the dishes while watching youtube, which is amazing. But the pass through is so blurry and I can barely check my watch or iphone bur under the right lighting I barely can… BUT when playing games with pass through you wont notice it and its so amazing!the controllers are amazing and much better then quest 2! I really can’t recommend this enough, for under $1000 we are getting CLOSE to lower end pc vr, but till then this is the best gaming focused vr headset

    Bought this for my birthday and have not been able to play it because my daughter lives on it. Overall it is alot of fun. You need to buy the upgraded battery strap. It works with steam and unlocks many more games and demos. I also upgraded the mask but would buy the breathable one if i had to do it again, i will pickup one the next time I am at Best buy. I would buy this again, alot of fun.
