I loved my Meta Quest 3. There are some really good games and some really bad ones, but I didn't buy it to play games; I bought it to exercise, and it's incredibly good for that.
There are several apps for exercising, but I'm using one called Supernatural. At first, I thought it was just a game, but as the days go by, I feel the exercise in my body. It's really helping me improve my fitness; it's becoming addictive.
The best VR headset I've ever tried, value for money.
I've had both the PlayStation and Apple VR headsets. I don't know why the PlayStation ones make me dizzy and nauseous. The Apple ones are good. I can't say otherwise, but they're not worth the price.
I don't experience any dizziness or discomfort with the Meta Quest 3 headset, even after extended periods of use of two or more hours.
You need to purchase an additional battery; they're much more comfortable to wear and adjust, and the battery lasts twice as long.

If you are only interested in PCVR save yourself a little money and get the 128GB model, but if you are looking to see what standalone VR can be like, the quest 3 is the new kid on the block, and has all its bases covered, good enough pass through cameras to actually navigate a room and understand what you are looking at. (Better lighting better pass through experience) More power than previous headsets including the Pro, released less than a year ago. Depth sensor that helps with setting up playspace and makes the pass through experience even better as you actually have a sense of distance unlike some headsets flat passthrough.
Included strap is still bad, less bad than the quest 2 but still bad. And battery life is just shy of 2hours on average. It’s also more power hungry, so you will want a higher output battery pack than you used with the quest 2. Something with PD 3 that can output better than 18 watts is the way to go if you want to meaningfully extend your battery life.
New controllers are great, no more rings, but the pro controllers would be better with their self tracking.
Pancake lenses make a world of difference, I’ll be using this over my other headsets unless valves deckard comes out with the same kind of lenses and similar or better screens. Might jump ship for that. But this exists now, and that’s an unannounced unconfirmed datamined pipe dream.

Pro: The Meta Quest 3 stands out amongst its competitors as being a fully wireless VR experience without compromising performance. It even directly competes eith Apples Vision Pro with its spatial computing abilities. Cons: Passthrough camera is very grainy and low quality, would like to see an improved spatial camera and bigger battery life next iteration. Overall, would recommend to anyone wanting to get into VR but might intimidated by all the options, you wont be disappointed with the Meta Quest 3

2nd iteration in VR for me. This is a great place to start if you have no experience, and worth the upgrade if you have a previous generation. The passthrough is worth every bit of the upgrade. I use it mainly as a at home big screen movie theater when the kids are in the man cave, but opted for the larger storage due to increasing size and quality of apps coming out.

Amazing Headset but the huge flaw is Battery drain

I am disabled veteran who is very much into VR/AR/MR scene. This headset is definitely the best of them all yet in the short description. Itdoes everything better, for the lower price than Q2 Pro version. I could only point out two flaws in its design. No upper area dedicated tracking cameras (why oh why Meta?). You wouldn't think it is trivial matter to this space magic, but look at the games like The Thrill of Fight and notice such epic titles have no pure hand tracking in it. Why? That's due tothe fact that Q3 cameras are designed (at least at currecnt update) for controller tracking algorithms and not for hand tracking to save costs. If they added upper part cameras like on quest 2this would of probably had been the first true hands only vr headset in history with everything already going for it besides the flaw No.2 that hits it at 1 star. - The battery life on Quest 3 is really bad due to how much energy is required for those amazing graphics and amazing new features. The internal batter of Q3 at most will last you about an hour and half and about the same length with highly overpriced Meta elite strap, at about the same length as intense gaming on Quest 2 with no external battery. The best solution for this is unfortunately have multiple external swappable batteries or something like Bobovr headset that can swap external batteries on the fly.

Had a quest 1 and wanted to try some new games, upgraded to the quest 3. Much faster, better graphics, and lighter. Only downside are the controls feel more slick and smooth making them more likely to slide out of your hand compared to the first gen controllers.

Absolutely love my Quest 3. Clearer picture than the Quest 2 and easily adjustable PD. The augmented reality games are very fun as well! Definitely a very good choice for a budget VR headset and can also be used to play PCVR using a cable designed for that much data transfer.

I came from the Quest 2 and after owning it for a few weeks, it suffered the fate of collecting dust for months on emd between usage. The Quest 3 is a massive improvement and game changer. The passrheough has enabled me to use it daily with out fail, and the improved lens and resolution make content clear and crisp. I say almost there, because the quality of the passthrough just needs a tiny bit better resolution and clarity. With that said it is still clear enough to read my phone screen, wash the dishes, and overall navigate my surroundings! A must have if its your first VR headset!

Best VR headset for both new and experienced users. It’s a great upgrade over the Quest 2, with much better clarity and detail. Feels less “front-heavy”. It’s also more powerful so you can take advantage of the graphics updates on many games and any Quest 3 exclusives. The color mixed reality passthrough is amazing compared to the grainy black and white passthrough of the Quest 2. Highly recommend.

I love this. The picture is clear and has adjustable options if you wear glasses. The other Oculus VR gave me such as bad headache and I could not wear it for long but this one I can play as long as I want. I do recommend buying a different strap for the head piece as it makes it a lot more comfortable to wear.

Other VR headsets may have better screens or graphical fidelity but require a PC and a wired connection. The Quest 3 does it all and is the benchmark of quality that other brands have to fight to measure up to and at a fantastic value as well.

This is a must buy item if you are looking to have fun! I recently bought the Quest 3 as an upgrade from my Quest 2 and I don't regret it. The upgrade in the passthrough, processing power, lenses, and the overall headset itself is amazing. The headset is super lightweight and is perfect for long play sessions without discomfort. The lenses are very clear and the games run awesome compared to the Quest 2. The lenses even have a custom IPD adjustment to find the right fot for your eyes! The controllers feel amazing aswell since they fot your hands perfectly and they are very light like the headset. If you are buying this as a gift for someone or even yourself, I totally recommend it!!

pretty good but for some reason playing with my bonnet the back of my head starts to hurt after playing for an hour or 2.pretty good graphics and also everything is perfect. way better than a 3s. so if u have the money for a 3 instead of buying a 3s the extra 100/200 dollars is worth it

Definitely bump up from the Quest 2! I recommend the 512GB version over the 128GB version. Or maybe just wait for the supposed upcoming Quest3 Lite (or cheaper model), and get a 256GB version of that. Be warned that the quest 3 burns through battery life noticeably quicker than Quest 2. About 1hr 30min, maybe 1hr 45min. I wear a sports belt back that holds phones when running (ahem - a 'fanny back'? lol) - and I have a $20 external lithium battery in there, with cable going up my shirt to the headset. That gets me another 1.5hrs of playtime!

I purchased this device to support increased physical activity as part of my health improvement journey. The experience has exceeded my expectations—each time I use the headset, I genuinely enjoy the workout and find myself looking forward to exercising again. I recently discovered an app focused on stretching and relaxation, which has been a valuable addition to my routine.
Setup was straightforward and intuitive, allowing me to get started quickly. While some of the apps can be somewhat expensive, the overall cost is still minimal when compared to a traditional gym membership. That said, the initial purchase price is substantial—after taxes and the extended warranty, the total came to $614. However, considering the level of engagement, convenience, and variety of fitness options available, I find the investment to be worthwhile.
Although I am still learning all of the features, the device is very user-friendly. I would recommend this product to anyone considering it specifically for fitness and overall wellness.
