The Quest 3 is absolutely amazing: if you get a solid unit. My first headet had white dots in the screen, my second unit had a nosepiece on the facial interface that came loose during use all the time, and my third unit has what appears to be a hair or dust under the screen. My other VR headsets don't have this issue (PSVR 1and 2, Quest 2). Meta's customer support tried to troubleshoot, but the stress of having disfunctional units is not allowing me to continue trying out the Quest 3 for now.
We are sorry you that we didn't provide a positive experience. Please contact us via our website so we can make things right. https://www.meta.com/en-gb/help/quest/

Still looks like looking at a screen. You would think this model would be much better since the previous one. But it’s not

Hey Mark,
If you want to get super immersed in the Metaverse there are some great experiences and games you could try out such as Theatre Elsewhere and First encounters are easy to hop in and out of for a quick game.
Thank you for the review and we hope you can find some fun adventures in the Metaverse!

This Quest 3 is barely any better then the 2. PLus we've spent another $100 for accessories that were a must IMO but still those upgrades have issues too. I feel like this was a money grap by facebook/meta to recoup $$$ they lost in settlements. Even the passthrough feature upgrade is way over hyped and under whelming. Stick with the Quest 2 and save youself $600, this one isn't worth it.

Battery life is awfully low. My teens hated it and said mostly all games are for lil kids and thats who you find playing online… only good for 6-10 YO kids

I have used VR headset for few years now, some early phone based one, PC VR with Rift S, followed by Quest 2 some months back. Quest 3 no doubt is superior with the newer pancake lenses, higher resolution and a lot more processing power than the Quest 2. BUT the best thing I liked in Quest 3 over others is the wonderful passthrough mode. I can finally walk around the house wearing the headset, if say I need to go look at my kid or go to kitchen to get a glass of water or most other things. The VR headset can now be worn for a longer duration.
The supplied headband is not great, same as Quest 2, so you have to either order the elite from Meta or a third party one. With aftermarket headband, the device is comfortable, definitely feels lighter vs Quest 2.
The OS interface is same between devices and Quest 3 looks just a tad sharper, in fact in most of the games with 2d texture I did not notice much sharpness despite the higher resolution. Higher refresh rate does makes it feel a lot smoother so a really welcome addition.
Hand tracking worked decently but after being used to of the controller for a lot of time, I just go back to them the moment I put the headset on.
The games I play are mostly sports/arcade type and all worked decently, from Pistol Whip, Synth Rider to Cricket, Tennis. Perhaps I ought to use the Oculus optimizer to get the more juice out of it.
I would have really liked if Quest 2 official accessories like the Elite head strap and the official case work with Quest 3, unfortunately that is not the case. Except this one thing, I am pretty happy with the new device and the improvement. Quest 3 is a much-needed improvement in VR head set and I just wish that Meta will produce more 1st party games for this device.

This is getting one star strictly because of Best Buy's horrendous customer service on the phone and in the store there's 4000 staff and you have to drag one to help you

Tried it for a couple weeks and it was cool at first but then gets boring and tiring. I can see it being more for kids or teens. I was playing contractors but having to stand up for 2hrs+ is quiete a bit exhausting especially after a long day of work of already standing , bending , etc.

Not recommended. It freezes a lot and errors out. Not worth the money.
