      Hello there!

      Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the wild and immersive experience of the Meta Quest 3 S, it really does open up a whole new world of possibilities.

      If you're noticing occasional blurriness, it might help to adjust the headset's fit or lens spacing for optimal clarity. Everyone’s eyes are a little different, and a quick tweak can make a big difference.

      We’re so glad you’re part of the VR community, and we’re here if you ever need support or tips to get the most out of your experience! oculus

    Better than actual Xbox console!

    I love it! I used it more than my actual Xbox. Also the elite strap it comes with is so comfy, the normal strap pushes on the back of my head and ears and makes it feel heavier. None of that is a problem with the elite strap. The only thing I wish was different is that it’s not a console so it can’t play all the games for example I wasn’t able to play rocket league and the battery is only 2 hours which is a lot but it goes by fast because it’s so fun. Other than that I love the colors and how I can play Xbox on a large screen in any room. Sometimes I even watch YouTube on it instead of on my phone. Overall it’s a great product for Xbox lovers or people who don’t have an Xbox or Vr and want to get into it. Also perfect if you want to get into Xbox and Vr, you can save money by buying one product. Thank you Xbox and Meta for this product and thank you Best Buy for not selling it out in 2 days.

    I'm a huge Xbox fan and when I saw this headset I flipped to get a chance to buy it. When I received it, it was beautiful, plus having the opportunity to wear the headset that many say is quite well designed is awesome. The down side, not on the store side but the design side is that the headset has this manual set eye distance, and for me it felt hard to adjust for myself and get used to. I heard since it is the s version it didn't get the upgraded adjustments that 3 did get which is a shame but that's just my opinion I guess. In terms of value, definitely worth, controller+black design headset, plus a 3 month membership, highly recommend!!

      Hi there, Orlando! Thanks for providing such a fantastic 5 star review. We really appreciate all of the the feedback regarding the physical build of the Quest 3S.

      While the Quest 3S does have a slightly shorter field of view at 96° compared to the Quest 3's 110°, this really is the only huge difference between the two models. You're still getting the same high definition resolution and optics with 1832x1920 pixels per eye and full color passthrough. As well as the same excellent performance, powered with the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip and 8GB of RAM.

      That being said, we're really glad that you're enjoying the headset overall and we really hope you're loving Meta Horizon+ too! oculus

    I hated VR because it constantly hurt my eyes and the headsets were too clunky and heavy. This one is feels great, looks great and doesn't hurt my eyes. I also wanted it because I'm a huge Xbox fan. Only 4 stars though because the battery life is definitely short.

    Whether im playong Golf+ or NFL pro, the meta quest 3s never fails to take me completely out of current reality. The battery lasts mich longer than the meta quest 3. The Xbox version is so cool. The controller and black and green colo scheme are very good looking. The elite strap that this bundle came with is also a must have. I never knew how stable and comfortable it could be before the elite strap.

    Its an awesome looking device will be worth alot of money since its a limited edition but honestly i think ima keep it my main quest is the 3 but i can see myself using this for upstairs so i dont have to keep bringing one of my quest 3 up plus if i wanna play some xbox from time to time i already have the controller and everything i need when im not down stairs to play my actual xbox console or even my quest 3 this is awesome so if i think about it im happy with my purchase plus the green and black i love those colors! Better get it before its gone and your gonna be paying more then what you can be getting in stores cause once they are gone they are gone no more xbox edition quest 3s highly recommend if your looking for a Christmas gift only thing that kinda sucks is the storage but still its a nice looking device!

    The other day, I bought the special edition xbox for the meta quest 3s, and so far, I love it. The controllers are amazing they fit so perfectly with the headset alone. The controller that comes with the headset is so nice with the triggers being see through thats makes it even better. The graphics are really good for it being a standalone headset. Also, to mention, the lens for the headset is amazing for the price. All of the games you can buy make the purchase worth it. The quallity of the headset makes you feel like you just dropped a ton load of money. Three months of the xbox game pass just make the purchase worth it. So in the end the 400 dollar price point is so worth it 100%.

    2nd VR Headset I've Ever Owned

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

    I love this headset. I am a huge Xbox fan & figured I had nothing to express this so I went for this headset. As someone who's only ever owned a Google Daydream kit, it's pretty much on par with that, minus the necessity to use your own phone as the screen and you get 2 remotes with all the buttons that come on a standard controller. It's actually a good value as it's not super expensive and you get a few things that actually would cost you quite a bit separately, such as the head strap, 3 months of stackable Game Pass Ultimate (I was close to needing to renew so this is awesome) & an Xbox Series X controller. The fact that you can pay $40-50 to get prescription lense inserts is extra awesome and it has made the experience even more enjoyable. I'm super into screenshots so the fact that there's a button combo to screenshot anywhere you are is just perfect. The ONLY 2 things I can say I don't like is that Meta will not allow you to extend your warranty or get accidental insurance on this particular headset and the battery life is extremely low, though there's plenty of ways to extend it, including using things you probably already own. The battery in the remotes are the complete opposite, they haven't died yet after a month but then again, I play with the Xbox controller a lot. At first I couldn't redeem the Game Pass Ultimate 3 month code but eventually I was able to before I had to renew. I'm happy that the Xbox app not only lets you play games that are cloud compatible but any game on your system remotely, which basically turns My entire library into VR compatible titles! I'll definitely be buying some sort of power bank and an IR light so My headset can still track/see the remotes while I play in complete darkness. At some point I'll graduate to something a bit more technologically advanced and expensive, but for now, I'm happy with this one! I'm glad Best Buy still has/had them in stock because I would rather not pay a scalper on eBay. I probably would've just passed on it if that's what it came down to. Now I can't wait for the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X.

    I was never fully interested in the meta quest but to me this Xbox version got me interested to play my Xbox games on it with the game pass while it gives you a three month game pass for free and a controller which is like 100 to almost 200 dollars from three months of game pass is 25 dollars a month and controller is 69 well depends on which one the meta quest with its controller and it comes in black and small areas of green looks very nice if it did not come with Xbox controller and three months of game pass than it should have cost 200 to 250 sort of to me so I think that is a good purchase. I wish Meta quest come in different colors like in black but also have the accessories like the charger and cables and stuff in black but I would recommend it but it is a 3s which is a slight low compare to the pro or 3 of the meta quest version but it works well I enjoyed playing it on Xbox games and can stream Xbox games from my Xbox console as well.
