    Very good headset, tracking is amazing, color pass through is amazing, games look amazing. If you don’t have enough for the quest 3 it should be good, the downsides are No aux port for headphones Same lenses and screen as the quest 2 Half the storage if u get the 200gb version of the 3s Smaller fov Overall 8.5/10

    Amazing headset for getting into vr. I love everything about it. Lot of free games to try out on the store too. This quest comes bundle with a Batman game which i originally didn’t care about but when i tried it out i instantly got hook and I think ones of the best games i have ever played in my life. You won’t regret it

    Great Budget Headset

    A wonderful budget headset that balanced out price and performance. If you’re looking for a cheaper entry to the new generation of Quests, I don’t think you’ll ever be disappointed. The lenses are not as great as the Quest 3, and the resolution is slightly lower resolution, but having the same processor means you’re still getting the same graphics as the original Quest 3. And for $200 cheaper? This is a perfectly viable option if you’re not willing to drop more on a headset. The only issue I have with this headset is the same issue I had with the previous Quest; no matter what you, the included strap will never sit perfectly, but for the price, it’s easy to overlook

    The Quest 3S 128GB is a solid headset for jumping into VR. It’s comfortable, easy to set up, and runs games smoothly. For casual gaming or first-time users, it does the job well. But the Quest 3 offers sharper visuals, faster performance, and more features. If you can stretch your budget, going for the Quest 3 is definitely the better long-term choice.

    Being in my 50s I wondered if this would get me back into “some” gaming. I was also having a double back surgery so I needed something to occupy my time. Glad I did too. From VRFishing to Mini & Reular Golf, IndyCar, Traveling.. turned it into an theatre scree which is pretty incredible. Sound is really good and plenty loud. Since I’ve be out of gaming since god knows how long, this was an easy enough transition. Oh and bowling. Lots of fun. Now, in saying all of this purchase the extra attached battery head strap. You’ll be sorry you didn't but very glad you did. Tons of models on Amazon for those straps, however, my son and I got ours at Best Buy at the same time as the 3S

    Incredible VR Experience – A Must-Have for Batman

    Batman: Arkham Shadow completely blew me away! The immersion is insane—stepping into Gotham City in full VR made me feel like I was the Dark Knight. The graphics are crisp, the combat feels smooth and intense, and the story keeps you hooked. This is easily one of the best uses of the Meta Quest 3’s capabilities. If you’re a fan of Batman or just want a top-tier VR experience, this game is a no-brainer. Totally worth it!

    This is an excellent "entry level" VR headset but it does come with some caveats. Make no mistake, the visuals are amazing and there is not a huge learning curve to get everything up and running. However, it is definitely missing some key components that you will have to purchase. Out of the box, this is not comfortable to wear at all. I started getting headaches about 10-15 minutes of wearing it. It is not an "adjustment period" as I have used VR headsets before, it's just a less than optimal design. You will definitely want to look into the Elite strap or 3rd party accessories to fix that issue. Secondly, there is no link cable included if you decide you want to use it with a PC. Connecting via wifi does work, but it's laggy even on the fastest network. Again, you will want to invest in a Quest link cable or a 3rd party one. Overall, I am happy with the purchase but felt for the price these accessories should have been included. Having Arkhan Shadow and 3 months of Quest+ is nice, but I would have preferred to have a better strap, facial interface, and link cable included instead.

    Solid Product | Slightly Short Battery Life

    The Quest 3S is a really incredible product. I have been a VR enthusiast since the early days of the first Oculus development kit but have been frustrated with tethered systems (tangled wires, hard setup). This product is a breeze by comparison. If I had one complaint, I would just say that the battery life is definitely less than I would have expected, getting about 2 hours max in my experience even on light loads such as watching tv. It isn't incredibly comfortable, so you are usually done by that point. However, it cut some of my sessions of the included Arkham Shadow short right when I was getting immersed in the world, which is a bit of a bummer. Solid product, would recommend to anyone interested in VR.

    This is our first VR headset so some of the issues could be on us. The headset is blurry unless held in one exact spot and angle which the straps don’t seem to hold just right. This is on two adults and two children of different ages. The graphics seem good but I don’t have anything to compare it with. The battery life is only 2 hours but I knew that at time of purchase. It does seem to cut off right at 2 hours. We’ve downloaded several different types of games and they all run smoothly. There was a couple of issues with getting the promos for the Batman game and MetaQuest+ for three months but after a couple of chats, each lasting almost an hour, with Meta support this was resolved. They ended up having to give me store credit for the game in order for me to download it so I was out a few bucks for sales tax. All in all, it has been fun to play when we have the time. Someone else that experiences a lot of gaming may find other issues with it but it is not bad for our first VR.

    It's an entertaining and delightful surprise. I had been hesitant to buy a Meta Quest for a while, but i am pleased i did. It's lighter than I thought and comfortable to wear. It does take a little bit to get used to, but once you do, you barely notice it. The immersive mode is, for lack of a better word, stunning. It does make you feel like youre in a totally different place. The only draw back is the limited battery life, but that is also a good thing, ironically. It help helps you keep note of your time so you dont lose yourself. (Which is very possible in a good game.)
