They appreciate its good resolution and relatively lightweight design. However, a significant point of feedback is the battery life, which customers feel could be better.

    Not great

    Very nice headset for a beginner, the standalone could use some work- very low resolution and buggy at times. The PCVR is great. The strap that comes with the headset is not great. Incentivizes you to buy a premium head strap- when for $400+ this should be way more comfortable. Once purchasing a 3rd party strap, and custom grips- i can’t be happier.

      Hey there Kyle,

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on the Meta Quest 3. We appreciate you leaving feedback.

      We're happy to hear you're enjoying your time in PCVR with the headset and would advise you to check out the Meta Quest Elite strap, as you'd get to experience the Metaverse in superior comfort.

      Wishing you a continued great time! oculus

    This is an awesome VR headset. Recommend getting a new strap, the one that comes with it gets a little uncomfortable after a while. I use the link cable and connect it through Steam on my gaming PC mostly but the stand alone games are fun as well.

    I bought this headset because I tried a friend’s 3S and enjoyed the experience, but wanted the extra visual quality of the 3. In my opinion, the better resolution, additional storage, and better ergonomics and weight distribution were worth the premium. However, don’t expect 4k like your TV but it is a bump in image quality over the 3S. Overall I found the 3 to be a better experience than the 3S if the extra $200 isn’t a concern. I primarily used it to workout on an app called Supernatural which was a great experience. Sorry I had to give that up when ultimately I had to give up on the Quest all together, it was fun. That’s where the fun stopped though. In the end, I gave up on this product because I purchased and had to return 5 units within a three month period due to malfunctions that I was unable to resolve through online research, trial and error, and Meta customer support (useless). I found instances online of people experiencing the exact same issue without any resolution, so this is not isolated. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t give any product more than three strikes, but I enjoyed the user experience when it worked as it was intended enough to keep trying (to a point). I had a couple of different issues, but it went like this: it would be fine for a few uses in a one to two week period, then randomly it would display a message onscreen that it had lost its ability to track in space with an option to continue without tracking or power off, but it also lost connection with the controllers so there was no way to interact. This left the only options being to either sleep or hard reset. Neither of which solved the issue. It would simply turn into Groundhog Day, the controllers were also inoperable and would vibrate every few seconds. At that point, restarting and/or doing a factory reset would solve nothing and ultimately end up bricking the headset. This happened with 5 headsets over a 10-12 week period purchased from two different Best Buy’s. I just lost faith in the quality control, the reliability of the product, and Meta’s willingness to address its shortcomings. Let me also say that this does not at all reflect on Best Buy. I couldn’t be happier with their service and policies. This was a trying process and everyone I dealt with at both the Concord and Portsmouth stores in New Hampshire made it as easy as possible aided by the policies they maintain for their customers and members.
