    The perfect headset for curious enthusiasts

    To start us off, the experience in getting this headset was exactly what you would hope it to be. The staff was super helpful while remaining straight to the point. The product itself is honestly mind-blowing. Growing up, I always dreamed of where videogames would end up going and the technology with the Quest 3 is a perfect example of peak gaming and movie watching experience. The batter does tend to die a bit fast but there are countless solutions for that, from a cheap fix, to more high-end solutions. 10/10 I've recommended this headset to all my friends and family, as well as recommending Best Buy as the perfect, hassle free place to purchase one. I will definitely be a returning customer for more tech.

    My first take on vr and it did not disappoint. It's very surreal and disorientating but very fun. It takes some time getting used to but i look forward to playing more games

    Much appreciated improvement to Quest 2: resolution is much better, so passthrough is much better, too. The controllers work well, but are sometimes finicky. I keep losing one and have to reset. The battery capacity is its biggest weakness, in my opinion; you really need an external battery to enjoy. Also, the elite strap is more comfortable than the included soft one.

    Mixed reality

    Best headset from meta yet

    The mixed reality is a bit of a gimmick but still really fun. No occlusion, grainy MR image, and some warping when moving, but the few mixed reality games are fun and it looks considerably better the more well lit your environment is. As a VR headset however, it is FANTASTIC. Godly optics (best lenses on the VR market), can track controllers in low light (hand tracking not so much), a GPU that is noticeably twice as strong in standalone mode, and better wireless PCVR streaming. Upgrading from a Q2 is a no brainer, and it is honestly a better PCVR experience than most PCVR headsets other than maybe the Bigscreen Beyond and Varjo. With a cable, you can practically get a compressionless image. The standalone experience is now comparable to early PCVR days graphically. This really should have been the first VR headset released. This will be the one to get newcomers to really buy into the technology. The only things that it’s missing in my opinion are OLED panels, a displayport connection option, and a slighly more compelling Mixed Reality experience. Eye tracking would be nice too. Decinitely blows the Q2 and the Quest Pro (sorry pro investors) out of the water. If you are questioning if it is a worthwhile headset upgrade, yes, it is. I will probably never touch my index again even with the lower refresh rate. It is also worth mentioning that 120hz is not currently conventionally available on PC you have to use sidequest to enable it, but it works natively standalone. Honestly 90hz is enough with the improved optics and resolution. The image is crystal clear.

    Upgraded from Quest 2 to Quest 3

    What’s not to say, it’s a decent VR headset and easy for everyone to use. I upgraded from the Quest 2 to this and see a considerable difference in some games. It is much lighter than the Quest 2 and easier for my wife and kids to use. Everyone enjoys it and there are games for all ages. Is a considerable investment but all game consoles are. If you are even slightly interesting VR, this is the headset to get. Games are $1.99-$49.99. The more expensive games are extremely impressive while some of the cheaper games feel like modified cell phone games. It’s really fun to cast what the headset is seeing to a tv or phone so that everyone gets involved while one person is in the headset.

    I used to have a Quest 2 and was really looking forward to upgrading to the Quest 3. This new version has definitely been a smoother and more enjoyable experience overall. The device connects easily with other devices, has impressive visual quality, and feels very durable. It offers everything I was personally looking for in a VR headset, with tons of features and flexibility. Out of all the newer VR headsets Meta has released, the Quest 3 stands out. I would absolutely choose this version over the Quest 2.

    I love it! Compared to the previous Meta 2, I can't go back to it. This one is way better ! If you're gonna get it, get the one with the most battery. And buy the upgrade that replaces the old strap to a more comfortable one, and can extend your battery life with the packs, for uninterrupted play.

      We are glad to hear you are enjoying your new Quest 3!

      We know there's not much that comes close to jumping into your favorite worlds, getting right into the action or just sitting back and relaxing.

      We aim to make immersive experiences feel real, with brilliant color and rich surround sound, we are glad that our efforts haven't gone unnoticed and it gets even better when you connect your Meta Quest 3 to a PC. If you have not tried PCVR yet via Quest Link, you're in for a treat!

      IF extra battery life is what you are after, you should definitely check out our Meta Quest Elite strap with battery. Our premium head strap combines the best in comfort, durability and support while offering an additional two hours of headset use thanks to a built-in battery pack.

      We keep innovating so you and your can have the experience of a lifetime!

    I am new to VR. I have not used controllers so I have to get used to them. But I am astounded by the things. The battery life is just ok. I have found some things make me motion sick and I lose my balance when standing. But I LOVE virtual tours. I spent most of my time looking at museums. Also the LEGO game is fun.

    This is my first VR headset and I’m extremely happy with the experience the quality is amazing the set up was easy overall a great purchase and will highly recommend. Only thing that I will say is as a con is the battery life tend to die out fast when using dual virtual and the head strap wasn’t ideal should have had a better headstrap for the price ended up purchasing a BOBO strap w/ battery park.

    An absolutely flawless experience - I've never had this much fun with gaming! I previously owned the PSVR2, but it was a hassle with all the wires and constantly having to reset the play boundaries. With the Meta Quest 3, everything is simple and seamless. It's wireless, easy to use, and so compact- I can take it anywhere. Total game-changer.
