Bought this for our son. He absolutely loves it.
We love it since it does make him get up and move. He is sore from playing games and that is better than just sitting down playing X Box.
The only thing that is not so good is that it only stays charged for 2 hours.
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to tell us your thoughts.
We hope your son has many more VR adventures ahead.

Ill start by saying I was skeptical that I would like VR. I have a pretty high standard for graphics and games, and want sure that the Quest 3 could provide a decent experience. BOY, WAS I WRONG!
The Quest 3 provides an amazing experience. You are really in the action, and you move around way more than I expected. I've tried several games, mostly first person shooters, and they can really get your blood pumping. You forget you're playing a game and really get the feeling that you're there, being shot at. I've also dabbled with casino/poker games. The games are great, sometimes the people you're playing with aren't. Be ready for a bunch of kids that know nothing about poker.
I recently subscribed, yes its a subscription, to Supernatural. It's a work out app. I thought, I'll do the free 7 day trial and see that this isn't going to do anything. Again, wrong. This app kicks your butt and you are sweating buckets by the end.
If you get the Quest 3, you won't be disappointed. Definitely get an aftermarket head strap because the one it comes with is garbage. I also picked up controller covers with straps, another must. Waiting on an aftermarket face cover thing that is easier to wash/clean as the workouts are soaking the one it comes with. Overall, very impressed and see myself using this device quite a lot.

Huge game changer from the psvr the only limit is how small of an environment you're in, and not having a charger for double AA batteries but they do last a pretty long time. Resolution is and graphics are very sharp.
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to tell us your thoughts.
We are glad to hear you are loving the new passthrough design.
We hope you have many more VR adventures ahead.

Fun gadget for family

Lots is fun to use. Runs smoothly and the video display is nice and crisp. Batter life is also good. Overall been enjoying it. My whole family uses it and it’s fairly easy to adjust the straps to fit everyone’s size. Also comfortable, the straps don’t dig in. But beware of using it for more than an hour at a time. Could lead to headaches or dizziness.

If you have a Quest 2 and are on the fence about whether or not to upgrade to a Quest 3, I'd say take the plunge. I rarely used my Quest 2 after getting over the initial honeymoon phase, and I mostly blame that on the low quality visual experience. Quest 3 has a better field of view, a higher resolution, and a pass-through option that isn't completely useless. I can actually read text now without it being a blurry mess. My main gripe is the terrible head strap that it comes with, as longer sessions become an exercise in masochism. I'd really recommend buying a third party head strap--one that has batteries preferred.

Many accessories and upgrades (carrying case, pro headband, etc) are WAY more expensive than they should be from the Meta store. Just find their equivalents and you’ll get a good product for cheaper. I also think it’s ridiculous that you need to spend $150 extra to double the storage space. $500 is already a lot, and only getting 512 GB out of that is annoying, especially when there’s no external hard drive. So keep that in mind - you can not add more storage via an SD card.
That being said, this thing is incredible. It's significantly lighter and less awkward than Quest 2. The quality is also better, and I like the direction they went with the fine-tuning. The controllers don’t have the plastic halo anymore, which makes them less clunky, and I appreciate that.
The battery life is ~3 hours for me, depending on the type of games you’re playing, Th Overall, I love this thing and am happy I got it.
TLDR: It is an excellent console with overpriced accessories, and it is worth investing in a better cord. 100% enjoyable for the whole family. I highly recommend in comparison to Quest 2 (it works well as a cheaper option, but you’ll get more fatigued quicker on the old one, and it takes longer to charge).

Love the newly improved pass-through and larger storage options! I really enjoyed my Quest 2 but the improved resolution, pass-through, and performance has been well worth the upgrade. Not a huge fan of the newer straps the Quest 2 and 3 use vs the original Quest though. Otherwise great product, super fun to bust out at group events for Beatsaber or Puppet Fever!
We're thrilled to learn that your kids are enjoying the Metaverse experience with the Quest 3 and we hope they continue to love it ahead.

Best vr solution on the market. That doesnt mean there arent flaws. You have to set it up with a Facebook account, which creates all kinds of problems for littles playing. Also, maybe you dont want meta jamming their social solutions down your throat. This also means youre tethered to their marketplace.
Expect to need to buy the alternate headstrap. The factory solution is really hard to get set up, and tends to be uncomfortable to wear for more than 30 minutes. For most folks, its going to really impact your impression negatively. Just plan to upgrade the strap, and you wont be disappointed if the out of the box setup isnt to your liking.
Finally, the battery kind of sucks. 1-2 hours is the real world max for this thing, and it doesnt charge quickly. So, youre really left using vr in short bursts or plugging in (which defeats the whole purpose of the quest).
That all makes it sound like the device is not very good. If one of these things is a deal breaker for you, then its not a good solution for you. Its certainly a less well rounded offering than the original quest or the quest 2. Most of the problems like battery and headset can be mitigated or eliminated with an extra addon purchase. So, that makes some of the issues a bit more serviceable.
That said, the actual device is Excellent. I upgraded from a Quest, but ive also used the Quest 2. The realism and processing power of this thing is seriously impressive. There's also options for folks who have glasses to make sure there is clearance between your lenses and the quest's. The AR stuff is in its infancy, but what is there is really cool.
All in all, the software and hardware teams for the Q3 should do a victory lap. The folks in charge of ergonomics and overall utilization experience, should look to the devices predecessors for inspiration. Still, its a really good device, and it feels like a solid step in the right direction for vr.

I recently purchased the Meta Quest 3 Breakthrough Mixed Reality headset with 512GB storage, and it has exceeded all my expectations. The setup was straightforward, and the white color looks sleek and modern.
Performance-wise, the Meta Quest 3 is a powerhouse. The mixed reality experience is incredibly immersive, with clear visuals and smooth performance. The additional storage is a huge plus, allowing me to download and store plenty of apps and games without worrying about running out of space.
The build quality is excellent, and it feels comfortable to wear for extended periods. The controllers are intuitive and responsive, making gameplay and interactions feel natural and engaging.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. It’s a bit on the pricier side, but the quality and experience it delivers are well worth it. Highly recommend to anyone looking to dive into the world of mixed reality!

My son has had a couple Occulus 2 models. We’ve had to replace them. The Best Buy Warranty costs a little extra however every time it’s had an issue, we have no problems returning to store and exchanging his device! He definitely loves the Occulus 3 better than the 2. He waited a bit to be sure they had they bugs worked out. He’s had it a little bit now with no problems.

I bought the meta quest 3 this year because I’m too broke for an Apple Vision Pro and honestly I’m impressed. All in all I give this an 8.3/10
Pros:
-solid graphics
-good tracking
-mixed reality is really cool
-many other small things
Cons:
-can get hot on the face
-I personally feel some eye strain after a while
-still pricey for the capabilities currently
-battery isn’t great

It's a fun experience. I've found a lot of great games and the graphics and tracking are really good. The only thing i would warn about is possible motion sickness. Just a tip, for games that are really bright and colorful with a lot of "walking" i found to be slightly nausea inducing. Make sure that the room you're in has good air circulation. It's something that you wouldn't expect but it helped me a bit when i first started playing

Wow. This is the most amazing VR headset I have used. I was mostly interested in buying the Meta Quest 3 for mixed reality and I am completely blown away. Mixed reality is done so well and it is a huge upgrade from the Quest 2. The controllers are much more comfortable than before. The 512GB option is especially useful if you plan on having a lot of games.

The Meta Quest 3 512GB is a powerhouse VR headset that delivers an exceptional experience with ample storage for all your games, apps, and immersive experiences. With its high-resolution mixed-reality display, powerful Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset, and improved comfort, it offers a smooth, immersive VR experience. The 512GB storage provides plenty of space for a growing library of titles without the need for constant management, making it perfect for heavy users or those looking to dive deep into the VR world. Whether you're gaming, exploring new apps, or enjoying mixed-reality experiences, the Quest 3 512GB is a top-tier choice.

I had a quest 2, but this one is better in every way. Better picture, more comfy, lighter, faster, better everything.
Doesn't feel like a 3.0 more like a refined 2.5 but it's still worth it.
We are glad you have noticed the improvements we made with the Quest 3 and we hope that the improved immersion helps you to enjoy all of your favourite games and experiences even more!
