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.
So glad you're having such a good time with your 3s. It's cool to hear how much of a difference the mixed reality and clear graphics make.
Thanks for the 5-stars.

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

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.
Wow! Thank you so much for such a detailed review, Chase!
Thank you so much for purchasing and the time you've taken to share your thoughts with us.
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!

I’m really impressed with how smooth and clear everything looks. The setup was fast, the controls feel natural, and the comfort level is great even after long sessions. Definitely worth the price—feels like next-gen gaming at home. Highly recommend!
We really appreciate you taking the time to provide a 5 star review.

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 your review and detailed feedback! We're super glad you were able to get those dead pixels fixed within a few days of owning it. We hope your experience from here only gets better!
Have a lovely rest of your day.

I’ve had this headset for a month and I’m really enjoying it. I will say the battery life isn’t that great but it’s enough to last a good gaming session. This headset is good for both beginners and returning players.
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us regarding your recent Meta Quest 3s purchase.
We're delighted that you're enjoying your headset, and play it often!
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!

Amazing VR Experience – Perfect Gift for anyone!

The Meta Quest 3S has been an incredible purchase and easily one of the best Christmas gifts we’ve ever given our son. He’s 12 years old, and he absolutely loves it. The setup was straightforward, and within minutes he was exploring virtual worlds and learning how everything works.
The graphics and performance are impressive, especially for a standalone headset. Everything runs smoothly, the visuals are clear, and the controls feel natural and responsive. It’s easy for beginners to pick up, but still powerful enough to keep growing with as he gets older.
The included game, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners, was an amazing bonus. It really shows what the headset is capable of and adds a lot of value to the purchase. Watching him get excited about the experience and talk about the gameplay afterward has been great.
What I appreciate most is how immersive and engaging the Quest 3S is. It’s not just a gaming device—it encourages movement, problem-solving, and creativity. Parental controls are also easy to manage, which gives peace of mind.
Overall, the Meta Quest 3S exceeded our expectations. If you’re considering VR for your family or as a gift, this is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!
Thank you, for this incredible review! It's amazing to read experiences like this and we hope that your son continues to explore and to be energised and challenged through all the incredible experiences on offer.

I really like it overall! My only complaint is that I wish the battery life were better. Since it's still new to me, I sometimes feel a bit nauseous during certain movements—like flying or jumping off something—but that's probably just an adjustment period. Other than that, it's a really cool experience!
Thank you for the five star review! We're so glad to hear you're enjoying your new Quest 3S, and we welcome you to the Meta Family!
The Quest 3S offers an average 2.5 hours in the Metaverse but we know that many users want to remain in the Metaverse for much longer, so we've made a product to accommodate that! If the 2.5 hours isn't doing the trick for you, you can pick up our Elite Strap with Battery from our store for extra play time.
You're also very right in saying VR does has a bit of a learning curve and can be a bit disorientating for some time so we'd recommend starting off with less demanding apps/games to get you on your feet and also try a take a few breaks in between until the nauseating phase wears off!
Thanks again for the great review and if you ever run into a problem or just have some questions on your mind, then you're always welcome to reach out to our team at Meta Store Support and they'll be happy to help out in any way they can.
Have a great day ahead!

I wasn't sure if I needed this since my Quest 2 was working fine, but my son really wanted to play the new Batman game so I caved. Honestly? I'm actually impressed.
Setting it up was super easy, took maybe 10 mins. The biggest difference right away is the cameras on the front. On my old one, looking around the room was all black and white and fuzzy. On this one, it’s in color. It’s not like 4K TV clear, but I can actually look at my phone or find my water bottle without taking the headset off which is huge.
Games definitely run smoother. We played Batman and Gorilla Tag and it just feels faster, no stuttering. The visuals are crisp enough for me. I know people talk about the lenses being "old tech" or whatever, but unless you are a VR nerd, you probably won't notice. It looks great to me.
My only gripe is the head strap. It’s pretty flimsy. After about an hour of playing, my face starts to hurt a bit. definitely planning to buy a better strap soon. Also, the battery drains kinda fast if you are playing intense games, so maybe get a battery pack if you play for long sessions.
Overall though, for $300? It's a no brainer. way cheaper than the pro models and does everything I need it to do.
Pros:
Color pass through is cool
Fast and smooth
Great price
Cons:
Strap is uncomfy
Battery life could be better
We're so thrilled to hear that you and your son are having a blast with your new Quest 3S headset! Being able to enjoy the Batman game to hunt the rats and playing some Gorilla tag in clearer and faster pace.
Walking around your room and getting a drink of water after playing for long periods without having to take off your headset feels like the future is coming faster than expected.
We completely hear you on the head strap and the battery Rish. If you're looking for a good way to improves both at the same time, then we would recommend checking out our store for the Meta Quest Elite Strap with battery, it provides more comfort for longer gaming sessions and adds another whopping 2 hours of virtual adventures onto your sessions.
We hope you and your son continue to enjoy your new device and we wish you all the best on your travels through the Metaverse!

I love it, i don't use it for an extended period, therefore i dont worry about the battery life. But if you have the money i would recommend getting the quest 3 because of the pancake lenses, the current lenses on the quest 3s can make it seem blurry if you dont position it right in the center.
Thank you so much for leaving a 5-star review on the Meta Quest 3S! We always welcome any feedback from our community.
We hope you continue to have a fantastic time in the world of VR with the Meta Quest 3S.

I had the first version Oculus and this one is amazing!
The cameras which allow you to see your surroundings (if you choose instead of full imersion) are awesome! I can have a snack/drink while I'm watching multiple screens, configured to my liking (size/placement/background). I'm a big Walking Dead fan but not a gamer. That being said, the game is GREAT! I've even played it in the yard at night (you can map a safe area so you don't run into things) and it feels SO realistic that I had the chills and hair standing up on the back of my neck at times. I also like to be able to lay on the couch and watch my YouTube videos, browse FB and other sites. These are way more comfortable than previous versions and lighter. Very easy to setup and intuitive to use. I feel like I've only begun to explore the capabilities. Get them, you won't be disappointed. Just having a floating giant screen is worth the price alone, even if you use them for nothing else (but you will!).
Hello Michael, thank you for the wonderful review!
We can see you are obviously very passionate about your Meta Quest 3S and we are thrilled to know you are having such a great time on it! It is fantastic to know you have noticed all the improvements that we have made along the way, this encourages us to continue getting better and better!
