It’s very good inovation but the battery performance is very bad it’s not standalone 30 min

So far the Meta Quest 3 has been a great disappointment! I returned the 1st one i purchased for Christmas and i am currently in the process of returning the 2nd one directly to Meta Quest Support because it is malfunctioning as well!

To start, I am by no means a veteran of VR. Getting this headset opened up a whole new world for me and it has been so much fun! Games are immersive and movements are smooth, which was a little surprising given the small form factor of the headset. Batman Arkham Shadow has been exhilarating to play. I'm a big fan of superhero games and this combo takes it to the next level. The combat keeps you on your toes and the storyline keeps you hooked. It feels cool to be digitally transported into a different universe and physically in control of your character. I'd also like to add playing Among Us with this headset has been EXCEPTIONALLY fun. It's a completely different game and it's SO immersive. The best part is that I'm just getting started! There are so many more games to play. I'm looking forward to further utilizing the 3-month free trial of Meta Quest+! Comfortwise, I'd say it's pretty good. The cushion isn't bad and I like that it has a fabric cover instead of a rubber or silicone one. That said, if you wear glasses like me, I'd recommend getting some lenses because wearing your glasses under the headset is not comfortable in my opinion. The battery life is only an issue if you're not near an outlet and like to game for long periods. I average about an hour but I didn't find any issues using the headset while plugged in. Overall, I'd say for everything you get under the hood, there is no competition. You will not be disappointed with the Meta Quest 3. There are so many new experiences to be had and there has never been a better time to join the fun. 10/10 recommend!!! Now, don't mind me, I'm heading back to the metaverse. Maybe I'll see you there! 

Just like the old one still a lot glitches but it's fun

No matter what card or PayPal, I can't add a payment method. The device then becomes worthless. The Mets have supposedly been working on a fix. It's been two months, and no fix in sight. I'm returning it. before I get

The headset has horrible smell, like body odor. And this is a known issue but when I opened a ticket with Meta they did nothing. The bo smell s why I have only one star.

This is my second experience with VR. My first was the Samsung one that I got with my S8+ phone many years ago. It wasn't anything close to the Meta Quest 3. You snapped your phone into the headset to have VR. This being a complete standalone VR headset is miles ahead. First, after the initial setup, I set my home as the spaceship. Then I played the game from there. It had me map the room that I was in, which was simply walking around and looking around the room so that it could see the obstacles. I was in my living room, so the couch, coffee table, Christmas tree, end tables and TV were all mapped out. Then the game began. A little space ship broke through the ceiling. Pieces of the ceiling that were broken then landed on the floor, and some landed and stayed on the ceiling fan. Little fuzzy balls started cracking the walls and coming into the living room. You then shoot them to collect them. By the time I was finished, most of my walls were gone, revealing a completely different world behind it. It comes with Batman: Arkham Shadow (not my normal type of game) so I decided to try it. I've got to say, it's amazing. Although I typically play FPS (Battlefield) and racing games, I was drawn into the world. Actually being in it changes everything. Being able to turn your head to look around versus pushing a joystick was great. It's a lot more realistic to how things work in the real world. To climb a ladder, you reach up and grab a rung and pull up, then put your next hand on the next rung and climb. I will say that some motions can be tricky. For example, I play sitting down. Your Batarang is on your belt, so you're supposed to reach down to your waist to grab it. While sitting down, reaching down to your waist doesn't move your arm far enough for the game to know that your hands are at waist level. I spent 5 minutes just trying to grab it before finally giving up. If I stood up, it was no problem to grab it. That takes you out of the experience quickly. The Meta Horizon Worlds are interesting. You can play mini games, watch concerts, and explore a lot of other things to do. I went to VR experiences and watched people climbing Everest. It was like you were right there with them. Looking around from the top of the world was amazing. A couple of downsides for me were the experience with the Batman game not knowing that I was reaching for my belt, and occasionally the screen is off-center. The only thing I can come up with is if you are not looking straight ahead when that screen comes up, it will be off-center. You then have to go into the Quest menu and reset the center point. There are features to help avoid motion sickness, which can easily occur with VR. I did notice on a longer play session that I did get a little nauseated, so I just stopped for the night. That feeling did last for about 30 minutes afterwards. There is so much to see and do. From playing games, to watching TV and movies, I've only begun to scratch the surface, but my time with it so far has been amazing!

The Meta Quest 3 is a must have over the other models. The crispness of the display alone is a must. I was surprised how clear everything looks. It does a fairly good job of displaying your environment for AR purposes. It's easy to set and detect your boundaries so you don't accidentally bump something while your fully immersed in VR. It has an extender to accommodate glasses which worked really well. I would of rather had some lenses like drone goggles have so that I don't need glasses but this was a good compromise. I didn't have any issues with fogging. It's a little heavy on the head but manageable. It sounds great with the speakers right next to your ears and adds to the immersion. A few cheap things, I thought, were the straps on the controllers, not sure they could of gotten a smaller cord, and the headband. It was comfortable enough for just being webbing but I would of liked a better way to adjust the tightness. Maybe I'm just spoiled by drone goggles but there's better ways of adjusting tightness than just sliding some webbing around. It does get the job done though. I played the included Batman game and it was a lot of fun. I could only stand about 30min at a time due to motion sickness but I think that's just my problem. It worked well as a VR game and you could easily play it sitting or standing up. Definitely be careful of your surroundings when punching though. The goggles will tell you when you're getting close to something but they can't stop you from over extending a punch. You also are getting attacked from all around so you will find yourself flailing during combat. Everything felt very natural playing it. The other game I tried out was a free roller coaster game to get something more immersive and less action. It was cool being able to look completely around you and experience the ride. Personally I also enjoyed being able to watch movies on Amazon Video. With the clear display and it being big and right in front of you it was pretty nice. It also had a curved mode to make it a little more cinematic. If you have a small TV or want to be able to watch something different than the household, I think this is really good. I didn't see anywhere to redeem 3 months of Quest+ though. You can use your hands and gestures or use the controllers for certain activities. The controllers are very ergonomic but could use a bit more texture to them. The battery life is ok on the goggles, I had to charge after maybe 3 hours of intermittent use. I would recommend these for some next level gaming. Be mindful of your motion sickness. I don't get motion sick very often with car rides or taking cruises but this VR affected me. I've heard the more you do it the better your stomach will get but I haven't used these long enough to validate that truth. Just a warning if you already know that you have motion sickness problems. Also I think you really need to get a case or a charging stand for something this expensive to keep it nice and together.

Poor visual quality and not worth the money. VR is still too far from a fully immersive experience.

ZERO STARS.. Meta has 30 days warranty best buy 14... My quest 3 only 850 bucks just stopped day 20 not evern 3 hrs a day on this wow

A control was damaged, after 7 days of use, poor quality

This was a present I didn’t get to enjoy. But I definitely was looking forward to playing it.

This item works some time and not othere idk what ia wrong

The Meta Quest 3 is much different than the first round of VR headsets. For example my first VR headset needed to be plugged in to a capable gaming computer in order to function. The stand alone headsets were not any good. The Quest 3 is a very different story, especially when it comes to playing games on it as a stand alone device. The Quest 3 has a very nice display with a field of view of 110 degree, which delivers a phenomenally immersive experience. I have gamed extensively on an ultrawide curved gaming monitor and this is by far more immersive. The design of the Meta 3 is solid and comfortable with fairly even weight distribution. One item that I was not used to is the use of mixed reality where you can interact with the real world while in VR. This is a game changer for me since one of the common issues I found was running into things or hitting things as I was playing games. I really nice feature is the fact that you don’t need to use the controllers to utilize the Quest 3. There are a specific set of hand gestures to at let you manipulate the Quest 3 controls which is amazing. The one thing is I wish the Meta Quest 3 had better battery life or at least a replaceable/swappable battery.

This is not a good process . Roadie didn’t deliver my item and now I don’t have an item for Christmas for my grandson. This is not fair . Also I am having to pay for this item becasue no one is doing anything to fix this .

Don’t like it at all, have to buy a subscription for the glass from Facebook not cool!

I had a problem 18 days after purchase and no help from Best Buy.

I the gadget is good but their promise to give you Asgard 2 is not true so I’m returning my quest 3 to the store!

Do not buy from Best Buy, worst experience ever and beyond frustrated with Best Buy

Don’t do the updates unless you have a couple of hours to reconfigure the system.
