Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got this delivered to my home. i think bestbuy should get a different delivery service. i couldnt contact the driver at all or the company. but overall the metaquest 3s is fun . As a black person it wasnt really made for our kind. Its so many racist people on VR . I really feel like it should be more games and fun activities for the price also, having to buy a fan or different headband for the vr is absolutely insane. the batteries needed for the joysticks are a headache as well. the games get boring quick. and to play good games cost you $50

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!

Great product! The setup is a no brainer super user friendly, the only downfall is it does have you use you FB account and I do t like that since my kids play on it. I love the ease of using it and playing it, the games run smooth and graphics are fine. I do regret not getting the better version but overall it’s a great product for the price.

Great! Bought for our son he upgraded from the 2 to the 3 and it’s worth it! No more controllers with the plastic wrist bands that snap easy and it’s faster and better overall according to him! Best Buy had a great promotion for the holidays and we are happy with the purchase

okay, so I'm not a gamer, but I definitely appreciate how cool this technology is. I'm a wannabe mural artist that has seen this tool specifically on lots of YouTube videos. I was debating between the 3S and the 3 to get into this, and was really leaning to the 3 for the higher resolution, but I'll tell you if you're just starting out, get this! I bought it when it was $250 on sale around the holidays, and I think it's a really great value for what it is, considering I'm not doing any gaming and just want to use this for art and blowing up things for mini murals. This was a fantastic introduction. I do find the resolution a tiny bit on the low side, but it really doesn't make that much of a difference as long as your artwork is high resolution. Definitely recommend getting. I will still keep even if I upgrade.

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!).

This is the second one I’ve owned and it works amazing just as the last.

The Meta Quest 3 is easily one of the best standalone VR headsets out right now. The setup is quick, the interface feels smooth, and the passthrough upgrade makes a huge difference being able to see your room clearly while switching between apps or adjusting your play area is a game changer. The visuals are noticeably sharper than previous models, and the tracking feels solid even in smaller spaces. It’s lightweight enough for longer sessions, and the controllers are comfortable, though hand tracking has gotten good enough that I actually use it more than I expected. What really stands out is how versatile it is. Whether you’re gaming, watching movies, or trying out mixed-reality apps, it feels like the headset can do a bit of everything without needing a PC. The app library is growing fast too, so there’s always something new to try. Overall, the Quest 3 delivers a great mix of performance, comfort, and features. If you’re looking to upgrade from an older headset or trying VR for the first time it’s definitely worth it.

This takes gaming to a whole new level. I was super excited for the bundle but unfortunately it didnt load when i set up the headset. It was back and forth to try to get answers but Best Buy diesnt handle getting the digital code and trying to go thru Meta is well impossible to talk to anyone. I ended up giving up and just buying TWD Saints and Sinners since it was on sale. Now if your not a big gamer there is so much more you can explore with these things, they are absolutely amazing. Workouts are fun, explore the world and more! Definitely recommend getting one but I don’t recommend getting one with a bundle. Even though i didnt get my game with it i still say this is a 5 star

Very good product, recommend for everyone. Just buy it.

The Meta Quest 3 is an outstanding VR headset that delivers a truly immersive and impressive experience right out of the box. The visuals are sharp and clear, making games and virtual environments feel more realistic and engaging than ever, while the performance is smooth and responsive with no wires or external hardware required. The headset is comfortable to wear for extended sessions, and the controllers track movements accurately, adding to the overall realism. The mixed-reality features are a standout, seamlessly blending the real world with digital content in a way that feels natural and exciting. Whether you’re gaming, watching content, or exploring new experiences, the Meta Quest 3 offers one of the best and most enjoyable VR experiences available today.

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.

My son loves it. My son has wanted a VR for what seems like forever. This was so easy to set up, and is wonderful quality. Son enjoys the graphics and sound. Absolutely worth every penny. Great product at a great price point.

I am new to VR and have wanted to always own a meta VR Headset since the Quest 2. I didn’t want to end up spending $500 + taxes(~$531) + Accessories (~$610) on this hobby to start with so the Quest 3S seemed like the best option out there. A lot of posts online say getting the 3S is not worth it but in my initial experience, it’s beautiful and absolutely worth it for someone who hasn’t had VR or has owned the Quest 2 and DOESN’T want to spend the extra $200-250. Pros: Color Passthrough - A game changer, very cool being able to place screens in my space and easily also have spatial awareness as well as do some other tasks on the side Better processor - Easily handles all tasks you throw at it Hand tracking - Almost flawless, very intuitive and easy to control the software using my hands. This is some iron man level stuff imo. Possibilities with updates are endless. Productivity: Remote Desktop is SO USEFUL. I use it to code. I can have 3 screens, pull them towards me or blow them up. Gaming - Games look and feel great overall! No doubt because of the screen reading small text is an issue if the monitors are “blown up” in size, but, you can always pull them towards you to magnify the text. It’s a workaround and I am all for it. Don’t want to pay the extra $200 for the better lenses on the Quest 3. Will probably do so for the Quest 4 because I do eventually want a better screen and lenses as they will elevate the overall experience. Cons: Old screen and lenses The “Sweet Spot” is hard to find at the beginning, but with a week’s usage you should be able to easily find it and adjust to it. Very difficult to use my phone/laptop screen in color passthrough due to clarity of the screen. This would’ve been great but not a dealbreaker. Eye fatigue- I increased my usage from 15 minutes in the first 2 days to over 2.5 hours on the 4th day, no problems. Eye fatigue definitely decreased. Dizziness- Some games make me feel dizzy or nauseous, but I guess I’ll just get used to it over time. Overall - I am happy with my purchase. It does what it’s supposed to do and does it well. I would 10/10 recommend this to anyone just getting into VR.

Love it!! This is more fun than I ever imagined. I can't wait until Christmas so the whole family can see!!! (OK so I opened it early to charge it up and preload some goodies and get semi acquainted with it so the entire day wasn't spent being frustrated... worth it!!) I had no idea shooting cartoon aliens could look so real. Also, 3d movies are mind blowing. This is a feast for the eyes and is perfect for anyone that doesn't get out of the house much. Even if they do, countless fun things to see and do. Even exercize is fun with this baby. Spoil yourself and get one, you won't regret it!

Purchased for my brother and he can’t put it down. I’m familiar with VR since 2013 and this has been one of the easiest and most enjoyable experiences when it comes to VR. The headset is light considering the tracking cams and screens packed in it. The only thing holding it back is the software set up. Getting it to combine with Facebook is tedious and long process but past that it’s seem less fun and great entertainment. Highly recommend to anyone that is unfamiliar with VR and wants to get into it for the first time.

Bought it for my son for a Christmas gift and he loves it. Easy set up and working. Durable so far. Good graphics on the #d imagery.

This product is amazing. It's so emersive and easy to use. I love using this to watch movies or tv shows while doing chores. Great quality and Price. Worth it so I bought 2.

This was a great Christmas gift for my son he really loves to play on it and is on it like 24/7 he used to not be a late sleeper even if he had his favorite thing to play with but now I have to give him more time because he really loves playing with it and I love this product also because it’s really cool and am 42 and I don’t get dizzy from trying it out next new ond am definitely going to buy it for my sons birthday or Christmas for sure 10/1000 definitely recommend this product

The system itself is fantastic! it is so fun to play on as well as its very easy to navigate. I would 100% recommend this to any gaming individual.
