    I used this for racing games and honestly, it’s amazing for the price. The graphics and smoothness blew me away, definitely exceeded what I was expecting. The only reason I returned it was so I could upgrade to the best version — that’s how much I loved it. If you’re on the fence, just know this thing is worth it.

    Great Service, Buy The Warranty! Pays for itself!

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

    I recently bought my son the new Quest 3S VR from Best Buy last Christmas, and the experience has been great. The staff was helpful and made the whole process smooth and easy. My son absolutely loves the headset! One thing I highly recommend to anyone purchasing a Quest VR is to get the extended warranty. We’ve owned three Quest VR headsets over the years, and every single one of them eventually had tracking issues, this one included. However, this one lost tracking and thought it was in motion in a vehicle which was a new one. Having the protection plan gives you peace of mind. What makes it even better is how convenient it is to work with the Geek Squad. When something goes wrong, you can just walk in and they swap it out quickly with no hassle. It really makes the whole process stress-free. Overall, Best Buy has always taken care of us, and this purchase was no different. Great service, great products, and definitely worth getting the extra coverage.

    This product is really good. But I honestly rather the Quest 2. This one have some issues with the controlles. Battery get off with no uses sometimes or not recognize the controllers. But the cameras and colors are extremely better than Quest 2.

    I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first got the Oculus Quest, but it honestly exceeded everything I imagined. The setup was quick and easy, and being completely wireless makes a huge difference—you’re not stuck or limited by cords, which makes the experience feel way more real. The graphics are impressive, especially for a standalone headset, and the controllers are very responsive. Whether I’m playing games, working out, or just exploring virtual worlds, it really pulls you in. I also like how there’s something for everyone—action games, relaxing experiences, even fitness apps. One of the best parts for me is how immersive everything feels. You don’t just play the game—you feel like you’re inside it. I’ve found myself using it more than I expected, and it’s become a go-to for both entertainment and stress relief.

    This item over the holiday was an insane deal, I have 2 3s and a 3 and also a 2 I love the 3s the most. The price compared to the 3 does not justify the 200$ price difference. The 3s is overall the best bang for the buck.

      Hi Rebecca!

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

      We're so glad to hear that you've found your new Meta Quest 3S to be awesome and we are so honored you chose us for your first foray into VR!

      We do also appreciate your feedback in regards the the headband and the blurriness you've experienced. We're constantly working to improve our products, and your feedback will help us make informed decisions about future updates!

      We would advise though that for blurriness a common cause for this can be lens spacing and so we recommend gently moving the slider under your headset until your view is clear and comfortable! oculus
