    The meta quest 3 is by far the best bang for your buck VR Set on the market. It works flawless, the quest store has tons of games and applications to offer. PCVR is also superb, wireless or with link cable work great. Very impressed after using multiple different headsets.

      Hey Bruce, Good day! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re delighted to hear that you’re loving your Meta Quest 3 and that it’s been an awesome product with no issues. It’s great to know the experience has been smooth and enjoyable for you.

      We do understand your concern about the controllers being easy to drop. That’s an important point, as keeping them secure helps protect your gear and ensures uninterrupted play. Your suggestion to get something for better grip or safety is very valuable, and we appreciate you highlighting it for other users as well. I would recommend you to use the controller Wrist Straps to keep them secure during gameplay.

      We’re glad the headset is delivering the fun and reliability you were hoping for, and your feedback helps us continue to improve the overall VR experience.

      Thank you again for being part of the Meta community and for helping us grow with your thoughtful review.

    Great VR Experience

    The Meta Quest is a great VR exerience. - With having access to a library of free games and many favorites like Beat Saber, Meta has a amount of fun to be had in whatever way you want to play. With its wireless accessibility it is convenient to use and store. - unlike the PS5 VR (which I own) it is not tethered to a wire. This means you have to be mindful where you play, but it also means that you can have an immersive experience. The wire, though not a horrible feature, can be a bother. The head latching could be more secure, but with the ability to buy other options, I am sure that anyone can find a way for it to suit their needs. - My daughter found herself having to adjust it reguraly as she played to make sure it did not slide down. I did not have this issues, but I am sure younger ones may have a similar issue. As mentioned prior, you can purchase an alternate band to suit your needs. Overall, I am happy with the perchase. It is a hit in the wallet, but its a very fun and worth the time if you have the extra change.

      Hello there!

      Thanks for sharing your review, great to hear the Quest 3 is fun and easy to use. An extra battery definitely helps with longer play sessions, and it’s awesome that it doubles as a great exercise tool. Feedback like yours helps others see how versatile the headset can be. oculus

    This is really cool. I don't really use it stand alone, I connect it to my Steam account and play my VR Steam games on it. It really works perfectly. Non VR games work great to, it is like playing on a huge screen. I've played 3D movies and that works okay, but plays several types of formats. Google Earth is really fun. The eye pieces are adjustable so it works with all types of eye spacing. I haven't noticed the screen door effect because the resolution is high enough to hide it. I bought the BoboVR S3 to replace the strap to mount to the head. It fits better than stock and has an external battery. I can only play for a little while because I get a little sick, but others don't. I got one for myself and one for my son. We have a blast!

    It is an amazing product, me and my kids enjoyed the Meta Quest very much, it makes me feel that I am in the game, this is the first time that I used it, never played a game before. I am 59 years old, and makes me feel kid again. I recommend it to the people to have one of them, like I said before. It is amazing.

    Worth the upgrade from Quest 2!

    It’s hard to find any real negatives with the Quest 3 — it’s a clear upgrade in every way compared to the Quest 2. One of the most important improvements is the lenses. This is exactly why it’s worth upgrading to the Quest 3 and not the Quest 3s. The 3s uses the same lenses as the Quest 2, which means you won’t get the full visual experience that defines this new generation. Personally, I’ve noticed a big difference — the improved clarity and comfort make it way easier to use for longer sessions, and I don’t get motion sickness nearly as much as I used to. If you’re on the fence, I’d definitely recommend the Quest 3. It’s the first headset that really feels like it gets everything right.

    Great fun. My 9 year old is slowly getting the hang of it, def harder for kids to master as you can’t see what they see to walk them through it, but maybe that’s a good thing so they can develop problem solving and be more comfortable with technology. So from that perspective it’s also a win. I have the store easily locked so no accidental purchases, and so far she’s loving every chance she gets to use it. Battery life isn’t horrible but it def isn’t a 4+ hour usage device without getting a battery pack add on. This isn’t really a negative in my book, because I only let her use it an hour per day, but it MIGHT be a knock if you plan to use it for longer durations of gaming or video watching. My only knock would be the supplied headband, not super comfortable for anyone in my house. I bought a $30 padded replacement with a sizing dial off Amazon and now I have no more complaints.

    I think this device is really cool. I like how you can control apps and some games with your bare hands instead of using the controllers for everything. I enjoyed the apps and the platformer games. The motion of the shooting games made me feel carsick, but I am in my 30's. I was dissatisfied with the battery life, but there are 3rd-party head straps with battery packs on them.

    I was very close to giving a four star because the strap just isn’t the best option out there, but otherwise this quest is an amazing piece of hardware. Even as an upgrade from the second generation, the improvements are well worth the investment. The pancake lenses and 4k resolution is astounding. The upgraded graphics is also noticeable but not enough titles are taking advantage of this though. Say goodbye to custom songs on beat saber for now, still worth.

    Good standalone, questionable pcvr

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    So I’ve owned this device for about 3 weeks now, during the end of week 2 I encountered proximity sensor issues where it would like cut out because it wasn’t detecting my head or face or something. But they seem to have mostly gone away? If you’re using this for pcvr be aware that meta quest app on pc is TERRIBLE, sometimes it requires a complete pc restart to link to the quest via cable and it’s just tedious and annoying sometimes. The headset itself has good graphics quality in my opinion but also a not so good battery life, it lasts around maybe 2ish hours when not plugged in, but when plugged into my pc using pcvr it lasts for about 5 hours. Which is enough for me to enjoy. Standalone quest hasn’t given me any bugs so props there I guess, but this thing is tedious for pcvr through meta link app. 1 more thing the cable it comes with is not a link cable, I recommend finding a usb 3.0 plus cable on amazon recommended 16ft.

    The product is significantly better than previous versions. The graphics are outstanding. The game library has finally caught up, providing much more variety. The cons to having great graphics in a standalone headset is what you’d expect. Product has a very short battery life, so I’d recommended purchasing the external battery as well.
