    Use it more than my apple vision

    I have had both the quest 3 and Vision Pro for a few months now. Let me make this easy for you, unless you work full time as a programmer/content creator , developer, etc. and are married to the Mac OS, you will actually get more use and have more fun with the quest 3 So if you’re trying to get into VR or had questions about it and thought it might be kind of interesting a few years ago like I was, I think this is the best introduction experience that you can get at a reasonable price. With the recent technological advances and price Reduction due to competition m, this $500 headset can do some pretty amazing things that were not available just a few years ago and cost way more. My brother has been staying at my place for the last two weeks and he agrees that even if they cost the same amount of money and he could only have one he would choose the quest 3z In fact, although there may be some performance metrics that the Apple Vision Pro is better at there are still so many features and games/experiences that are available on quest and not the Apple vision that you can actually end up doing a lot more. Also, the addition of the controllers is extremely convenient for quick navigation and use . If you have the extra cash, I highly recommend investing in the extended battery set up and head strap. This extra feature truly sets the quest apart from the Apple Vision Pro in the ease of use without some weird cable, sticking out from the side of head. Also, the reasonable price of $500 and The lack of really expensive glass that is easily damaged makes you feel a lot more carefree without being terrified of damaging a 4000 dollar device .

    I bought the Meta Quest 3 at Best Buy and I’m extremely happy with my purchase. The performance is outstanding, the graphics quality is impressive, and the virtual reality experience is far more immersive than I expected. It was definitely a great decision.

    The MQ3 has great graphics and controls for VR but not suire if its for me. This is my first VR unit and while it is very cool and way better than i was expecting i found a few things that i dont like. The first is the headset comfort. It is lighter than expected and the weight is not an issue but no matter what headstrap/mount i use my face hurts after about 35 mins and then i start to feel sick. The second is related to overall VR gaming, i tend to casually game at the end of my day (work+gym) or when i am sick and on the couch. I have found that i dont really want to put a VR headset on and move around a bunch at these times and would rather just use my PC which has better resolution and graphics.

    This was an absolutely amazing buy! I’m having so much fun with all the games that came with the free Horizons+ for three months. Comparing to my old PSVR, the resolution quality is remarkable. Not being constrained by cables is such freedom. The mixed reality games that add virtual objects to your real life surroundings are a sight to behold and even playable for people who easily get dizzy. After watching a few YouTube videos with Meta Quest tips for beginners, I learned how to use and adjust headset, controllers, and settings.

    If you’re thinking of buying a standalone VR headset this is the best one i recommend. It has a variety of games for all genres and amazing upgraded graphics from the previous quest 2. Apart from games i’m able to watch movies and series. This headset is the full deal highly recommend!

    Love mine. I bought the 512gb one and it’s plenty of space. I did upgrade the head strap though, the one it comes with is pitiful. Also upgraded to the silicon face plate. To be honest at the price you pay that stuff should come standard. Overall it’s a lot of fun for the family.

    This is a great productivity tool for someone who would like to work in a virtual environment. I know this is a gaming platform, but I primarily use it for school classes and productivity in a virtual environment as a OTR trucker to feel like my environment is more comfortable so I can be more productive. I also think VR mods are really cool and would recommend to Portal 2, Red dead redemption, and cyberpunk 2077 in VR

    I love the quest 3. I owned a quest 2 for around 2.5 years, and it was really good for the price, but started degrading recently, making a replacement or headset upgrade imminent. I saved up for it and was not disappointed. I went with the 512 gb, since 64 gb has been an issue with me when it came to the quest 2. Always out of storage. The 512 gb is super nice since mods and games/apps take up small amounts when compared to the high amounts of storage you have. The graphics are better on games with the graphic updates, due to the lens having more pixels per eye, and the processor is able to handle a lot more, making once laggy or low fps situations almost non existent compared to the quest 3. I think the headset is great due to the price and high quality. Plus meta has great customer support/service

    My son requested this for his 13th bday. He already had a quest for Christmas 2023 but he wanted this newer version. He is very happy with it. Plays daily. Even in the car on rides. He thinks it’s much better graphics than the previous version. It was a great purchase even though we tried to convince him to do the 3s lol. He wasn’t going for that so we bought the one he wanted. Would recommend.

    The Meta Quest 3 (512GB) has significantly boosted our lab’s immersive capabilities, enabling us to simulate and experience virtual environments with high clarity and responsiveness. Its large storage and improved processing power make it perfect for handling complex VR models used in infrastructure and environmental simulations. The battery doesn't last more than 2.5 hours though.

    I had been on the fence for Quest 3 since I have the Quest 2 already. I feel it is faster and the clarity is better in the lenses. Although slimmer I feel it still weighs about the same as Quest 2. The fit is nice especially with my aftermarket elite strap with battery. I was going back and forth between 128GB vs 512GB and glad I chose the 512GB for the space. Some of the newer games are PC game size in terms of storage. It's a shame they did not offer 256GB version as well. In terms of value I give it only 4 stars because it's pricy for the 512GB and when you start adding accessories, it gets even pricier. The controllers are nice but they feel small to me. But glad they removed the ring. Overall happy with the purchase especially since got the Wrath game for FREE and 6 months of Meta Quest subscription with the 512GB version which is a great deal IMO since you get 2 FREE games per month.

    I’ve throughly enjoyed my Meta Quest 3. It’s superior performance and upgrades since the previous generation is a game changer and makes it so worth getting. I would rate it higher only if the battery life was just a bit longer. But i suppose i’ll be getting the battery pack provided by Meta. Otherwise it’s a 10/10 for me!

    Very great very headset I ever had. I love the design and quality overall. The only thing I would change first buying the product would be head strap and face cover because of how uncomfortable it is. I changed head strap to bobo vr s3 pro and I changed the face cover to amvr. 10/10 absolute masterpiece. Graphics are great.
