Not as great as I expected
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Myself and my daughter both had massive headaches within a few minutes of use. Doesn't seem to bother my son though. I have read the reviews suggesting that purchasing the elite strap helps make it more comfortable but after spending $500 for the system, I'm having a hard time justifying spending more on the accessories. It should have been included since this appears to be a fairly common issue. Also, the headset does not form a complete seal around my face, there is a gap at the bottom. If I try to reposition the headset, the images become blurry. And finally, I have to agree with other reviews, the mixed reality resolution is pretty bad. Very grainy. Overall, I didn't buy this for me but disappointed that we're not all able to enjoy and for the price, not really worth it.

refuses to stay connected to the internet
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been trying to set the quest 3 up forfour hours and during that time it would only stay connected to the internet for around 2 minutes at the most. I went to customer support and different forums about the issue and could not find any answers to fixing the issue. Customer service only wanted offers work arounds such as using your phone as a hotspot instead of connecting directly to wifi. I even tried connecting to dofferent frequency channels and it did not help. For $500 i will definitely be getting my money back.

Not bad
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mostly good for 1-2hours then it’s getting discomfort for the eyes.

Posted .Hi Arslan!
We're sorry to hear about your eye discomfort. We'd recommend you changing IPD setting on Meta device to the point where your eyes feel comfortable. This would ease bad eye strain, which would make you play comfortably longer. We further recommend giving this -Meta's public article on IPD and lens spacing on Meta Quest- a read., to learn more about IPD setting and how to change it.
Happy Gaming!

Posted .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!

Don't purchase for your 10+ kid
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't buy a MetaQuest for your kids if you actually want them to have a game they can use. They are unable to use gift cards, have money gifted to them or share purchasing power. Then as a parent you can gift a game but not add-on bundles and are forced to spend 100% more for a purchase. Customer support is utterly useless. The "free game" that comes with it is not avaialble for minors to use/purchase, even with parental approval. They have removed all ability for parents to actually have a choice in what their kids use - they can only approve what META says they can approve.

Great wireless VR and wonderful passthrough
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Not for me
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Bad batch
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Left controller keeps disconnecting. I went back four times to get it replaced. Still the same issue. Showed it to geek squad they couldn't figure it out either. There's a manufacturing issue with certain batches.

Item overheated and started smoking
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used for 30 minutes and it started overheating and smoking. Called best buy for help, they said to safely dispose of the unit, and they would refund or replace. They said i would have the refund in 24-48 hours after a week of no answers. Then they changed and said I needed to return it after I disposed of it. Now I'm waiting on a supervisor to hopefully honor what they said. Super stressful. Short lived xmas gift.

Make sure your serial number match
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased one from the west ridge store on 11/27/2024 fast-forward to today where I go into warranty out the item because it will not charge and they tell me that I am trying to scam them because the serial number is on the meta-quest do not match the serial numbers on my receipt and to leave the store because I am trying to scam them
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Meta Store Support
Posted .Hi there DERisio, thanks for making us aware of this.
The reason the serial number doesn't match will be because the serial number on the receipt will be for the box itself rather than the headset.
Each component in the box will also have their own unique serial number, the reason being in case of one component needing replaced rather than the whole kit.
So if you still have the box we would recommend taking that with you so that they honor the replacement.
If you are still running into issues please don't hesitate to get in touch with the Meta Quest Support Team via the Meta Quest Help Center, we will be more than happy to help get this sorted out for you!
