    I've been using the Meta Quest 3 AR headset for a week now and I'm blown away by how amazing it is. It's the first headset of 6 that I've tried that actually feels comfortable and clear, and it fits my big head. With the upgraded strap and cushion it easy to fit on my head size and shape, and the lenses are sharp and bright. I love that I can interact with the virtual world and real world natural and intuitive way, using my hands or the included controllers. The Meta Quest 3 AR headset is a game-changer for anyone who loves immersive experiences, or someone looking to get into VR/AR for the first time.

    The vidro quality is good. The audio quality is really good. Its a great experience for anyone. Pretty cool to have a theater sized screen on something that fits on your head. You can play games or watch movies. Very interesting experience. I gave this 4 stars because it needs a better head strap and battery life. Other than that its a great product!

      Hi there Shirley,

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

      We see that you could use some additional comfort and battery life, so we would recommend grabbing yourself a Quest Elite Strap with Battery to solve both of these concerns.

      As it provides a more comfortable fit and feel, along with up to an additional 2 hours of extra battery life for longer gaming sessions! oculus

    The improvements in the resolution is amazing. While I wish they had OLED screens the LCD do just fine for me. AR still feels gimmicky to me so far but I don’t use this device for anything other than entertainment/games. Someone who uses it in a productivity setting might feel different. I went ahead and bought the link cable as well so I could use this as a PCVR headset as well and happy that I did! With that you have access to all the rift and steam PCVR titles. The strap is comfortable enough to get me thru a few hours long sessions. Overall very impressed with this device.

    Nothing really bad to say. One controller broke but Best Buy’s coverage is AWESOME. (DO NOT BUY WITHOUT BESTBUY PROTECTION) on a side note though… Meta helped me a ton. A neighbor kid tried VR for the first time. I didn’t have pin on as it was new and hadn’t done much. This neighbor accidentally bought about every extra for Gorilla Tag. It was a lot. Like $87. It was my fault for no pin. Not the kids fault (he doesn’t know). I immediately contacted meta and was told tough luck. They only refund under certain circumstances and a neighbor kid didn’t qualify. I wasn’t happy. I was nice and asked them to please reconsider. They told me sorry. Lesson learned… 3 days later I get an email from meta saying that they understand things like this happen. They refunded me the entire purchase. I was so impressed. I was very appreciative. We have 1 headset and 2 kids. So it’s a tough share thing. Maybe additional headset coming in December…

    This is probably the most fun you can have in VR before you really take a plunge on the deep side of this world. Loads of fun games and a half decent battery without any extra battery components. Graphics are solid. The unit isn’t loud and doesn’t heat up to much. Definitely not as noticeable this go vs the quest 2.

    I am thoroughly impressed with the Quest 3 (512GB). The value proposition is undeniable: instead of incurring significant expenses for brief, 30-to-60-minute play sessions at external venues, securing your own headset offers total freedom. This ownership grants maximum immersion and unlimited playtime, making it the definitive choice for serious VR enthusiasts.

    These are great. Definitely a step up from the 2. My main reason for upgrading was I didn't like the edge blurriness of the Q2's. There is still some with the 3 but is way better. Games from the store are great. Good graphics, speed etc. Red Matter 2 really shows off the hardware. Only a couple small gripes. The face interface adjusters broke within days, one side wont stay locked in position. There is still some light bloom or flare in high contrast scenes. And there is some light leakage around my nose.

    Very great product! It is definitely an improvement over the Meta Quest 2. I wish I would have purchased it sooner than I did. I really love the improved cameras and the ease of changing out the facemasks. Much like with my cell phones, I hated running out of space, so I got the biggest and best. I don't regret this purchase.

    My whole family loves this game console. The Batman Arkham is challenging and it also created a great great exercise for me. We also down loaded other game, like the boxing and the basketball.

    Great Upgrade from Quest 2 and Best Value for PCVR

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

    I purchased this as an upgrade. I also own an original Rift as well as the Quest 2 and I must say the improvements the lenses make are very impressive. Even more so the color pass-through is leaps beyond the 2's grainy black and white. I find myself thoroughly enjoying mixed reality games and watching videos while still seeing my environment around me. I also use it to play VR titles on my PC, and with all the other options out there with higher resolution, oled panels, etc it's impossible to beat the value of the Quest 3. I am quite happy with my purchase and truly enjoying the upgraded experience from my previous models.
