    I haven’t seen my kid in days…it’s not often I can keep my teenager quiet, but we purchased this for his birthday and I’ve only seen him leave to address his hungry belly and the call of nature. I have no idea how the graphics have improved, but I’ve heard it’s a lot lighter, easier to set the grid, and the battery life is legit. If you are purchasing, splurge for the bigger hard drive, we cheaper it out on the last VR system, and it was a constant battle deleting and downloading games. Overall, if you strive to see less of the teenagers, this is right up your alley. If you like to spend time with your kids (like me) be prepared to whine outside their door until they acknowledge your existence and return to the family fold.

    Quest 3

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

    I'm throughly enjoying my Quest 3 it's a nice upgrade from the Quest 2, the new pancake lenses further increase clarity , and the increase in power measure for some better looking games. My only issue i had was some dead pixels which i had to return the headset and exchange it for other one. My second device is problem free so I'm happy.

    The Meta Quest 3 is a must have over the other models. The crispness of the display alone is a must. I was surprised how clear everything looks. It does a fairly good job of displaying your environment for AR purposes. It's easy to set and detect your boundaries so you don't accidentally bump something while your fully immersed in VR. It has an extender to accommodate glasses which worked really well. I would of rather had some lenses like drone goggles have so that I don't need glasses but this was a good compromise. I didn't have any issues with fogging. It's a little heavy on the head but manageable. It sounds great with the speakers right next to your ears and adds to the immersion. A few cheap things, I thought, were the straps on the controllers, not sure they could of gotten a smaller cord, and the headband. It was comfortable enough for just being webbing but I would of liked a better way to adjust the tightness. Maybe I'm just spoiled by drone goggles but there's better ways of adjusting tightness than just sliding some webbing around. It does get the job done though. I played the included Batman game and it was a lot of fun. I could only stand about 30min at a time due to motion sickness but I think that's just my problem. It worked well as a VR game and you could easily play it sitting or standing up. Definitely be careful of your surroundings when punching though. The goggles will tell you when you're getting close to something but they can't stop you from over extending a punch. You also are getting attacked from all around so you will find yourself flailing during combat. Everything felt very natural playing it. The other game I tried out was a free roller coaster game to get something more immersive and less action. It was cool being able to look completely around you and experience the ride. Personally I also enjoyed being able to watch movies on Amazon Video. With the clear display and it being big and right in front of you it was pretty nice. It also had a curved mode to make it a little more cinematic. If you have a small TV or want to be able to watch something different than the household, I think this is really good. I didn't see anywhere to redeem 3 months of Quest+ though. You can use your hands and gestures or use the controllers for certain activities. The controllers are very ergonomic but could use a bit more texture to them. The battery life is ok on the goggles, I had to charge after maybe 3 hours of intermittent use. I would recommend these for some next level gaming. Be mindful of your motion sickness. I don't get motion sick very often with car rides or taking cruises but this VR affected me. I've heard the more you do it the better your stomach will get but I haven't used these long enough to validate that truth. Just a warning if you already know that you have motion sickness problems. Also I think you really need to get a case or a charging stand for something this expensive to keep it nice and together.

    The Meta Quest 3 is quite the impressive piece of virtual reality hardware. The materials and build quality are top notch and the head set is comfortable. Normally things like this feel heavy and create pressure points for me, but the Quest 3 is great comfort wise. Everything is easily adjustable and the straps even accommodate a ponytail. As an owner of the Quest 2, I can definitely say the image is very sharp and crisp comparatively. Sound is great too. With the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 you get excellent graphics and clarity that certainly sets it apart from its predecessor. Additionally, the pass through visuals and graphics are amazing. I've got to say that it is such a trip how far technology has come over the years. Turning your whole house into an entire gaming world is just crazy. The augmented reality is amazing. The controls feel nice and responsive and the hands track very well. Really can't wait to try out everything the Meta Quest 3 has to offer... especially with the Meta Quest+ subscription.. An added bonus is you can also play Xbox game pass games with the Meta Quest 3! Overall, the Meta Quest 3 is an absolute blast and If you are in the market for a VR headset THIS is the one you want!

    The Meta Quest 3 is amazing beyond all doubt. I tried the original Meta Quest when it first came out, but I have never owned another VR headset. After unboxing the headset, and charging it, the i then began the setup process. The setup process is very time-consuming, however, one of the great things about the setup process is the tutorial for people who have no clue how this thing works. It was extensive and I am very pleased with it. The reason why the process to set it up takes so long is because you have to set it up on your phone, then set up all of the stuff on the headset, then set up credit card info to purchase games, and of course, download the games. There are so many different games to choose from and for the most part, they are very low cost to free. The headset is easy to adjust and one of the great features when is you can cast the headset onto your phone. It is great for me when my child is playing Roblox because I can hear the conversation. The only complaint about the headset is probably the battery life. It lasts just over an hour, but if you use the battery saver it should last quite a bit longer. Otherwise, this is great for parents and kids alike.

    Amazing Mixed Reality with fun community and games

    Coming from the oculus rift, PCVR. This is one of the best upgrades ever!! I love I don’t have any wires and especially think the mixed reality is worth everything. The head strap and facial interface are a little uncomfortable so plan on replacing those and controller grips so you can free up your hands are super usefull too. Lots of really fun free games like Hyper Dash. Bowling and playing rhythm games are a good time. Lots of people active so you will find nice friends. Really nice and supportive community

    Big upgrade from the Quest 2! But BEWARE

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

    I was hesitant to spend $700 on another headset considering I only had my Quest 2 for 2 years but I took a chance. Every problem I faced with the Quest 2 has been solved with this model. The Quest 3 doesn’t feel like looking through binoculars, it’s SUPER clear, watching videos doesn’t feel like an issue anymore (for those who enjoy stresming on the Quest), there is no more need to adjust the headset constantly to find a “sweet spot” because the lenses don’t distort, the weight distribution is far better and it does NOT HURT your head or feel too heavy. It is very quick, no more lag going menu to menu to app. Mixed reality is actually very interesting, no more taking off the headset to check your phone or being interrupted by others in your household. Double tap the side and boom, back in your own reality. One con I had was with my first device the lenses looked dirty, there were dead pixels, the eye distance wheel didnt want to turn and the remote was messed up (straight out of the box) so PLEASE when you get the device, look at a gray/light blue screen from youtube and check for dead pixels. You will see it. Other than that the new unit is great.

    This is the first VR experience I have had in a while now. First time I tried VR was when you had to use your phone as the display. This is so much better. Setting it up is quite easy and I like that it comes with physical controllers unlike the Apple device. Just my preference. Inside the box: The VR headset Two controller devices with one Double A battery included for each USB C the C cable and power adapter to charge it This is the one with 512GB of storage I'll start with cons because it's not much. It has plenty of apps it seems but missing apps I would like to use like Netflix, Disney Plus, Hulu and etc. it does have a YouTube App and I can watch my purchased movies through it so not totally a loss. While other apps i don't know much about and I'll have to see I mostly wanted to try this out for watching movies and just enjoying content. There is games though and you get the Batman game which is nice. Takes a bit to get used to but once you do I had fun with the game. It's definitely different than playing like a PC or console.

    Very fun. It is mostly easy to use. i had to look online on for information. Overall i am very happy with my purchase. Its not too heavy. The advice i would get new buyers is: the meta button on the right controller takes you to the main menu and buy a longer cord. If you play too long the headset may die in your session and the cord it comes with is very short .

    This Meta Quest 3 is my first VR headset that didn’t require being tethered to a game console. VERY impressed! I can see so many possibilities for this headset. Packaging was well thought out and intuitive. Setup along with my iPhone and the Meta Horizon app was a piece of cake as well. I found some short videos online that were helpful for getting oriented with the controllers and the headset buttons and adjustments to get a good fit. The included Batman Arkham game is pretty good (both of my young adult-kids like it as well). Downloaded a casino game (took a little learning, but easy then) and a really neat version of Tetris. My favorite so far is Xtadium in which I watched portions of a couple NBA games and a college football game on Fox. VERY cool experience (like you are there) and I can see this growing like mad across various sports the next few years. From a fit and feel, it’s not too bad at all. I didn’t think the headset was very heavy and after some adjustments to the straps, it feels fine. Very accurate I think with respect to motion and control. I didn’t think I would like this thing as much as I do. Definitely recommend and I think a pretty good value for what you get!
