    I own quest 2, quest pro, and now quest 3, if you have the quest 2 this is hands down a no brainer, upgrade in every way. As far as coming from a quest pro the upgrades ae incremental at best but the added resolution and sound quality are a plus. The passthrough isnt as great as some say but its definitely better than all predecessors. The quest pro is more vivid with more color accuracy but its not a deal breaker, there is no face tracking or eye tracking here but for the cost its not a deal breaker either. At the price point this this is the best headset you can buy but I recommend going for the higher storage option 512gb as textures and game sizes are set to increase soon.

      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!

    This is the best Quest ever. I have purchased all 3 as they came out and this one out shines the other two. Bigger lenses, more control over adjustments and good Augmented Reality. I say good as it is not perfect but still a lot of fun. You see your world in color but the camera image is a little grainy but when you are playing a game you forget about it. The resolution is a lot better than the Quest 2 and some games are being updated to the new resolution and look fantastic. The head strap it comes with is still not comfortable and I have ordered the Bobovr battery strap which I did for the Quest 2 and is very comfortable.

    I'm sure Mark Zuck loves getting his devices in people's homes so he can sell even more of our private information, but what a tempting product he made. It's comfy to wear (with the Elite strap), has a variety of uses, and I'm still learning cool new functions every time I use it. Supports spatial/360 videos and Batman Arkham Shadow is a Meta exclusive.

    It's a fun experience. I've found a lot of great games and the graphics and tracking are really good. The only thing i would warn about is possible motion sickness. Just a tip, for games that are really bright and colorful with a lot of "walking" i found to be slightly nausea inducing. Make sure that the room you're in has good air circulation. It's something that you wouldn't expect but it helped me a bit when i first started playing

    This does so much more than I expected. I’m coming over from an original Oculus Rift and I’m blown away by how far we have come with portable VR. I love the hand controls and the mixed reality mode so much. My only complaint is the need to wear your glasses if you normally require them. They do fit somewhat comfortably in the visor. I’m looking forward to the day you can adjust the visors to your personal eyesight.

    • Go for it if: You don’t already own a high-end VR headset, you want a stand-alone device with minimal fuss, you’d like to try MR/digital-real world blending, and you want something future-ready. • Maybe wait or consider alternatives if: You only game occasionally and battery life/comfort for short sessions is critical, or you have a very tight budget and can live with last-gen (e.g., Quest 2) or another less expensive model. • Make sure: You have space to use it safely (room-scale or enough clearance for your movements), you’re fine with wearing it for the duration of your play/experience, and you’re aware non-VR uses (like full productivity MR) may still be limited.

    My son went from an Oculus 2 to a 3. They have changed some things for the better such as the lenses inside. He said he really likes it compared to the 2. We haven't run into any issues with it. I do also like that Oculus has a variety of games my son loves to play including multi-player games so hes able to meet other kids and talk to them.

    Upgraded From Quest 2

    If you have a quest 2 and are wondering if its worth the upgrade, heck yes it is! Mixed reality mini games alone are a whole new experience that are a lot of fun. Like people have said dont expect perfect pass-through ,but its still super immersive and you'll forget you're playing a game. The standard headstrap while still not perfect is a million times better than the one that came with the quest 2. Battery life still kinda sucks with 2 hours of playtime give or take depending on what youre doing. Overall I recommend this headset to anyone new or thats been in the vr game for years.

    My son wanted this for his birthday very badly. I bought it and to see his eyes open with pure joy was more than i needed to know the purchase was worth it. Watching him and my daughter play togther on the VR makes this even more apparent that this was the right choice. Brings me back to the day my dad got me a Sega Genesis and I was super excited. As a parent in a world full of sorrow and difficulties all around its important to bring some sort of joy and light. I hope this review helps you make the right choice and brings you the same joy i had in making a world where kids can disconnect fromthe crazy world we live in and allow them to have fun.

    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.

    Was unsure about the upgrade from the first model. But it really is visually better, happy I also went with more storage as the game sizes are also pretty big. Only reason it loses is a star, price could be more affordable. But best buy shipped so fast.

    Pretty good. The stock head strap can be a little uncomfortable after long periods. Using the device takes a bit for your brain to adjust. The camera takes clear photos but when viewing what’s in front of you live it does look more blurry than expected.

    Mixed reality is a game changer. Passthrough is very clear and drastically helps the VR experience. The sharp pancake lenses make weight and balance great for longer wearing. Not a fan of the standard strap, but the elite strap is a good choice until more 3rd party option come out.

    An Unbelievable Upgrade - Goodbye Wires!

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

    Having used the PSVR2 extensively, I was curious if the Quest 3 would be a true step up. The answer is an emphatic YES. This device is on a completely different level, and I am blown away. The first and most obvious game-changer is being completely wireless. After being tethered to a console, the freedom of movement with the Quest 3 is liberating. There are no more tangled cables or fears of tripping—it completely elevates the immersion in every single game. Visually, the pancake lenses are a massive improvement. The entire display is crystal clear from edge to edge, with none of the "sweet spot" hunting I had to do on the PSVR2. The full-color passthrough for mixed reality is also incredible; playing games that integrate with your actual living room feels like a glimpse into the future and is something the PSVR2 just can't compete with. Being a standalone headset with 512GB of storage means I have a massive library ready to go anywhere, without being tied to a console. If you're coming from a PSVR2 or any other wired headset, this is the upgrade you've been waiting for. It's a truly next-generation experience.

      We've really knuckled down on making AR seamless. With the crystal clear passthrough this becomes a possibility, so it's great to hear that you're able to enjoy this futuristic experience!

    I had the quest 2 before this one and honestly they are not even comparable. The quest 3 is better in every way. It's batter lasts longer, it doesn't freeze or glitch as much, it tracks better, it can be used without a controller by tracking movement, the lenses have a way higher display. It's a great upgrade from the old one for sure.
