    The screen seems to go blurry as you move your head. You have to recenter the screen constantly. And the lenses adjust but not enough to make up for the fact that letters get blurry. It’s also rather warm looking into this for a long time.

    I’ve had the Quest 3s for a bit now, and it honestly blew me away. The setup was quick, the tracking is super smooth, and the graphics are way clearer than I expected. The mixed reality features are really cool being able to see my surroundings while playing makes everything feel more immersive and safe. The headset feels lighter and more comfortable compared to older models too. If you’re into gaming or just want to explore VR, this is definitely one of the best all around options right now. Battery life could be a bit longer, but overall, it’s a great buy.

    The Meta Quest 3S Might Be the Best Value in V

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

    After spending serious time with the Meta Quest 3S, I can honestly say it's one of the best bang-for-your-buck headsets on the market right now. For $299 to $399, you're getting next-gen performance, full-color passthrough, access to the entire Quest ecosystem, and solid tracking—all in a wireless, standalone package. Yes, it cuts a few corners to keep the price low-mainly the use of Fresnel lenses instead of pancake optics, and a basic strap system-but none of these compromises are dealbreakers. The visuals are still sharp, the performance is buttery smooth, and the overall experience feels way more premium than its price suggests. If you're new to VR, upgrading from a Quest 2, or just looking for a powerful mixed-reality headset without spending $500+, the Quest 3S is a no-brainer. It brings most of the Quest 3's core strengths—like the XR2 Gen 2 chip, great hand and controller tracking, and access to next-gen games-at a significantly lower cost. For me, it strikes the perfect balance between affordability, performance, and immersion. Sure, if you want the absolute best visuals, the Quest 3 is still king-but the Quest 3S is incredibly close, and for hundreds less.

      It is wonderful to know that the Meta Quest 3s has exceeded your expectations and we completely agree- there is nothing like the immersion of virtual reality!

      It's also lovely to how excited you are about the visuals and design of the headset and that you're pleased with the value for money of the Quest 3s!

      Wishing you all the best and thank you again!

    I was hesitant to buy a VR headset because im not a gamer but it was still worth it. I bought it mainly for streaming movies and sports. The image quality is amazing(1080p) and you can size the screen to as big as you want. They also have theater mode which allows you to curve the screen. You can have multiple app or browser windows running at once which is pretty cool. I use the MLB, YouTube and Amazon Prime apps. For everything else i log in via their web browser. The only downsides for me is the older lens which sometimes appear cloudy and show rings and thr battery life.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review!

      We're so glad to hear that you've been loving your Quest 3S, particularly its awesome visual quality across a multitude of apps!

      We do appreciate your feedback regarding some cloudiness in the lenses and the battery life and we would recommend that if you haven't already you may want to use a dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe the lenses from the center outwards to see if this reduces the cloudiness for you.

      As for the battery we would advise that if your battery is not lasting for at least two hours to get in touch with our wonderful support team through our website who can look into any power issues you may be experiencing.

      Overall we hope that you continue to have an amazing time as you explore all of the endless wonders the Metaverse has to offer! oculus

    Good entry-level headset with just OK specs. Battery life was ok, and so were graphics and resolution. Got a few dead pixels within a few days of owning it, but thankfully, it was still covered under warranty. If you are someone who doesn't mind lower resolution and FOV, then this is perfect for you.

      Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us regarding your recent Meta Quest 3s purchase.

      The Meta Quest 3s has 2.5 hours of average run time with 4,324 mAH. If longer battery life for longer playtime is something you're interested in, you can look at the "Elite Strap with Battery" which adds an extra two hours of playtime! oculus
