    This headset actually hurts my head. It's supposed to be a newer design and the clarity is nice but it hurts to wear it, it's heavy and that distracts me from what I am watching.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Meta Quest 3: A Review

    First off, I apologize for the length of this review, but VR is not exactly mainstream and the complexity of the Meta Quest 3 warrants a detailed look. Think of it as a deep dive into the VR rabbit hole—grab a snack, get comfy, and let's explore! The Meta Quest 3 is a significant upgrade over the Quest 2, offering more comfort, power, and user-friendliness. One standout feature is the improved passthrough, which lets you see your surroundings clearly without removing the headset. This alone makes it worthwhile, even if you already own a Quest 2. The Quest 3 is smaller than the Quest 2 but has a larger face mask, making the overall size similar. It has a more balanced weight distribution, making it more comfortable for long periods. The adjustable lens distance is a welcome return, making it easier to get the perfect fit. The new Touch Plus controllers are lighter and smaller, without the large tracking rings. They work well but don't significantly improve tracking. Hand tracking is still rough and imprecise, but you can pair with Bluetooth 3.0 gaming controllers (such as Xbox Wireless Controllers). The Quest 3 features a 2064 x 2208 LCD for each eye, making it the best screen in any Quest headset so far. This means everything looks much crisper and clearer, from text to high-res games. It’s a significant improvement over the Quest 2, where things often felt rather out of focus. The field of view is also a bit larger, though it still has that "looking through binoculars" effect. The real win is the sharpness, which makes games and other content look fantastic. Some older games might show their age with the higher resolution, but newer titles look amazing. This clarity also enhances non-VR content, making apps like PlutoTV more enjoyable. Another big upgrade is the audio. The Quest 3's speakers are much better, offering louder and clearer sound with good spatial audio. While headphones still provide the best experience, the built-in audio is a noticeable improvement. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor and 8GB of RAM, the Quest 3 is faster and more responsive than the Quest 2. It boots up quickly, loads games faster, and handles demanding games much more smoothly. The only minor issue is some lag when scrolling through menus. The Quest 3 also has a growing library of games and apps, making it a versatile entertainment system. Whether you're into casual puzzles or intense shooters, there's plenty to keep you entertained. Plus, with Quest Link, you can connect to your PC and access even more VR content. Battery life is around two hours, which is decent for VR sessions. The optional charging dock, though pricey, is a great accessory that keeps your headset ready to go. The Quest 3's mixed reality capabilities are both impressive and a bit frustrating. The improved passthrough feature lets you see your surroundings in full color, making it easier to navigate your space without removing the headset. It's not perfect—details can still be a bit fuzzy—but it's a big step up from the Quest 2's grainy black-and-white passthrough. This enhanced passthrough also enables mixed reality experiences, where digital content is overlaid on your real-world environment. The Quest 3 can scan your room and let you interact with virtual objects in your actual space. While the technology is promising, it still has some issues, especially in low light, where the image can become grainy and distorted. The biggest issue with the Quest 3's MR features is the lack of compelling content. The most enjoyable MR experience I've had is a mini-game called First Encounters, where tiny aliens invade your room, and you have to capture them. It's fun and makes great use of MR, but it's essentially a demo to show you how MR works. Most other MR experiences are either simple games like Cubism or feel like tech demos. Passthrough works well in well-lit rooms but gets grainy in low light. While VR is great for immersive gaming, MR has more potential for real-world applications like navigation, education, and augmented reality games. However, the Quest 3 is currently more focused on MR for business and gaming, where VR still offers a better experience. For MR to truly take off, we need new apps and ideas, not just VR games adapted for passthrough. Some MR games on the Quest 3 would be better off as pure VR experiences. Some are almost unplayable. Many games need updates to fully utilize the Quest 3's new depth sensor and passthrough capabilities. For example, the included Batman: Arkham Shadow does a great job bringing the Arkham series to VR on the Meta Quest 3. It looks impressive, though there are some bugs. It was a bit disorienting for me at first, but once I was more used to it I had fun brawling, exploring, solving puzzles, and sneaking through Blackgate prison in pursuit of a mysterious cult leader. While smaller than other Arkham games, it’s much more detailed than Batman: Arkham VR, making the prison setting feel dense and intricate. Despite the MR issues, the Quest 3 may start to give developers reasons to invest in MR. Hopefully, we'll see more quality MR content in the near future. Right now, though, even the most anticipated new games for the Quest 3 are still VR games. Ultimately, the Quest 3 is still primarily a VR headset. It's an excellent one and in my opinion the best yet, but VR headsets are not yet mainstream, let alone MR. It might take a few years and significant changes in technology for MR to become mainstream. But until then, the Quest 3 remains an outstanding VR headset and not much more.
