Customer Ratings & Reviews

Tried the quest3 and now the quest3s. The difference are the lenses. So the 3 is a bit sharper. The 3s still looks pretty good. Games look pretty good and the headset is mostly smooth. Some glitches here and there in games etc on 3as well. The stock vr headstrap is terrible and the battery life bad. But you can get a nice headstrap with a bigger battery that lasts to for about 20 to 30 bucks online . Overall a pretty nice Vr. Try zombieland game it's.a.blast

The Meta Quest 3S (128GB) marks a significant evolution in Meta's standalone VR lineup, offering a refined and highly immersive experience that builds meaningfully upon previous generations. From the moment you power it on, the Quest 3S delivers a smooth and responsive VR environment. Whether navigating menus, launching apps, or diving into fast-paced gameplay, the system’s upgraded hardware ensures fluid performance and reduced latency, making the virtual world feel more natural and engaging. One of the standout improvements is the redesigned controllers. The new ergonomics provide a more comfortable grip, and the improved haptics and tracking offer greater precision during gameplay. Whether engaged in action-heavy games or creative applications, the enhanced control scheme contributes to a more profound sense of immersion and control. Battery life is another area where the Quest 3S shines. With longer-lasting power compared to its predecessors, users can enjoy extended play sessions without frequent interruptions. This improvement makes the overall experience more enjoyable and convenient, especially for users who want to explore multiple apps, games, or social platforms in one sitting. In summary, the Meta Quest 3S (128GB) is a polished and powerful VR console surpassing previous performance, comfort, and longevity models. With smoother functionality, refined controls, and extended battery life, it sets a new standard for standalone virtual reality and is a must-have for new and experienced VR users.

The Meta Quest 3S 128GB is a great budget-friendly VR headset that delivers an awesome upgrade from the Quest 2. The visuals are noticeably sharper, and the performance is smooth, making games and experiences feel more immersive. The improved hand and gesture tracking is a standout feature—it’s incredibly responsive and adds a new level of interactivity. The controllers feel different from the Quest 2’s, so there is a slight learning curve, but they are much lighter and more comfortable to use for extended play sessions. Setup was easy, and the included bonus of Batman: Arkham Shadow and a three-month trial of Meta Quest+ makes it an even better value. Overall, this is a fantastic option for anyone looking to step into VR or upgrade from an older model. Great performance, improved tracking, and an affordable price make it a solid choice!

I had the ability to test one of these from a program with best buy, and I liked it so much I bought a second unit. This headset is considered the entry level, but it seems to run pretty good to me, and does everything I would expect from a Vr headset. Going it's fairly easy setup, and goong through the tutorials help understand the controls, then it's off to the races. I figured out how to share apps for the family and have my wife on one machine, and myself on the other and now we can play the same game at the same time. I miss the days of if you buy a game and load it on whatever computer you are on, you can play it. With the onlone and account system, several companies make it so difficult that you end up buying 2 copies of the game so each person can play. I'm glad that this sysemt worked as it should. The graphics are immersive and i hoghly reccomend this.

This new Meta Quest 3S 128GB is great for those who want to experience headset technology at affordable price and beginners who wants to learn more about the VR world and games. This Meta headset was easy to set up, just put it on , adjust the head straps and lens , follow the instructions and download the Meta Horizon app. The headsets also comes with a glasses spacer, if you wants to use glasses with the headset, you can also buy on Meta prescription lenses for the headset. One of the many cool features this meta headsets offers is the multitasking feature, you can open more than one screen or app to watch videos while still see your room around you. This Meta Quest 3S is as good as the previous versions, the only difference that I've noticed is just the display : High definition (1832x1920 pixels per eye) vs 4K display on the Quest 3, also the field view is only 96° vs 110° on the Quest 3 but you get 2.5 hours of battery charge. This headset are amazing for everyone in your home. It includes 3 free months of Meta Quest+ and Batman Arkham Shadow.

I bought this for my nephew for Christmas and everyone in the house had fun taking turns, The mixed reality First Encounters is REALLY fun. It is fairly easy to use as well. Only negative is the head strap that comes with the device. It's definitely something most people will have to replace.

This quest vr headset is really sweet super fun to play especially with friends. Has run every game ive played just fine with very little lag and no crashes. The outside camaras arent the best but you can definitely see well enough through them to not fall or trip. The controllers track really well exept in the dark so is kind of hard to use in a dark area. The headset speakers are actually pretty good and are pretty loud with some quality sound. The connect to windows feature isnt to bad but it does have a delay if your router isnt in the same room and you can use multiple screens if you in the windowed mode but cant use multiple screens in the theater mode only one at a time. Can definitely use some work in that area. Overall i would really recommend this headset I use it often and love watching movies and playing games with it.

I didn't want to pay the much higher price for the 3, but when this 3S came out at only $300, and I got the MQ2 just 4 months ago for $200, I figure I can sell the 2 at almost $200, and recoup most of the cost, and have mixed reality at a pretty low price. The 3S graphics are a little better, and the top strap might make the weight distribution better, but it kindof hurts the top of my head (and I'm still trying to adjust it more). Overall, I think the investment for the 3S is well worth the price, and I'm having a great time with new apps.

The Meta Quest is an impressive standalone VR headset, offering sharp visuals, responsive motion tracking, and a wide range of immersive games and apps. It’s lightweight, comfortable, and easy to set up, with optional PC VR connectivity for enhanced performance. The 3D audio and hand-tracking features add to the overall experience. Battery life is around 2-3 hours, but it’s a small trade-off for its wireless convenience. Whether you’re gaming, working out, or exploring VR, the Meta Quest delivers great value. Rating: 4.5/5

“Best Christmas ever “ says my son who received this device on Christmas morning ! Omg - the quality is top notch and keeps him occupied for hours! All of his favs - games , YouTube , Roblox, & more all in one place ! Device is super easy to use — even for a child ! Let’s talk about the buying process - quick and easy online and picked up in the store the very next day. The young lady in pickup was super nice and prompt in getting my order for me. I was in and out in less than 5 mins! Overall 10- outta 10 experience ! Thanks Best Buy!

I couldn’t be happier with my Quest 3S 128GB. The moment I unboxed it, I could tell this headset was on a whole new level. The setup was fast and intuitive, and the visual clarity is unbelievable—everything feels so crisp and immersive. Getting Batman: Arkham Shadow included was the perfect bonus. The game looks stunning on the Quest 3S, and the performance is incredibly smooth. The 3-month Meta Horizon+ trial has also been amazing for exploring a huge variety of games and experiences right out of the gate. On top of the fantastic product, the customer support was outstanding. I had a small question during setup, and the support team got back to me almost instantly. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole process feel effortless. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. The Quest 3S is hands-down the best all-in-one VR headset I’ve ever used. Worth every single penny. Highly recommend!

These VR’s keep getting better and better. This one turned out to be amazing! And the MetaQuest 3S is perfect for someone wanting the 3 for a more affordable price. And it still has all the bells and whistles. There’s only one small difference and it doesn’t even take away from its performance. If you’re looking to try one of these, I’d definitely say to try the 3S. And it comes with a game that is a higher end game for free.

Very worth the money, real life graphics and a great variety of things to do on it. Fast and responsive hand controls with ability to go full VR or mixed reality.

This VR experience is AMAZING! And the Batman Arkham Shadow game is just as great with graphics and story being just as good as the other Arkham games except HERE, YOU have to fight all your henchmen and villains LITERALLY! VR adds to the experience being immersed in the games environment using your hands to navigate and fight your way through the game.It's an AMAZING EXPERIENCE and there's so many other games to choose from. This is my 1st VR gaming system and with the Batman game added to the systems purchase, its a great value pricewise!

I recently got the Oculus Quest S, and I have to say, it's pretty impressive! The graphics are sharp, and the immersive experience is top-notch. The wireless design makes it super convenient to use without being tethered to a PC. The only downside is that the battery life could be a bit longer, but overall, it's a fantastic device for VR enthusiasts. Definitely worth checking out!

I purchased this when it was on sale, out of curiosity. VR headsets are expensive, but Meta Quest seemed less expensive while still providing good quality. First of all, the build quality was solid. I liked the finish and feel of the handheld remotes, too. Setup out of the box was very straight forward and easy. You are guided through making an account via the headset. You also need to setup the app on a connected device like your phone or tablet. The view was very good and you can see through it via a camera on the front of the visor with the directions imposed over the view. It works very well. Sound is good. Graphics are great! The handheld remotes are easy to use. I did return the Meta Quest after a couple weeks. I found the device heavy and pressed hard on my cheeks. Someone I know who uses one purchased another headstrap for it and that helped. But I didn't want to invest in accessories yet. Mostly it was the fact that I wasn't really interested in the types of games offered and the weight that made my decision to return it. Meta caters to a younger, male demographic. Too many horror based games, the design of the graphics didn't appeal to me. Sure you can watch Netflix or movies, but the headset is so heavy that I didn't even last for 30 minutes. I see that VR glasses are available now. Those would probably be more what I would use and integrate while traveling or for entertainment. We'll see!

Amazing VR tech for the price of a Nintendo Switch! I also have the Meta Quest 2, and a regular Meta Quest 3 (that I paid the full $650 back in Jan, I'm a bit cranky about now that it's just $500). Anyway, you can real plenty of reviews out there and it's all being highly praised, so what new feedback could I provide? FIRST - Compared to the Quest 2, which was recently sold for $300 as early as first half of this year, the 3s is a huge upgrade and no-brainer. I got the 3s for my son, who was using the 2 for beat saber and Population One and we were running into more and more slow Quest Operating System/OS issues. And with Pop One game, you get a big upgrade in viewing distance and clarity - so pulled the trigger. He loves it. COMPARED TO REGULAR QUEST 3 - well, obviously the regular and more expensive quest 3 is better. It really comes down to this. For the 128GB model, for $300, if the extra $200 is an issue, get the 3s. Or if you're just new to VR and worried about not liking it, start with the cheaper 3s. I suspect if you have a family, and love VR, you'll want another one anyway and you can buy the full quest 3 for yourself later! ;) BUT the 256GB Quest 3s model for $400 I don't think is worth it. At that point you're only $100 away from the full Quest 3. For that extra $100 you get 256GB more storage (at 512GB) and most importantly, you get the amazing 'pancake' lens. Which, once you become a VR vet, you will appreciate. Far more clarity more of the time, far larger sweet spot for staying in focus, etc. The 'Frenel' lens on the quest 2 and 3s are perfectly fine, And for some content I still like them better - like games that are very lite-colored, with lots of white, or pastel, lighter colors. Pistol Whip for example. Pancake lens have this weird self-reflection with lighter colors. You get used to it though, and again, thankfully it's rarely an issue. Frenel doesn't have that, but again, not razor sharp or as in focus as much as regular quest 3's 'pancake' lens. I bought the original Quest 3 for $650, as I mentioned above - and I was still happy with it for that price; but if you're new and not sure, you will still very much like the $300 Quest 3s and the 128GB should be enough space. Worse case, you uninstall games you're done with to make room for others. Only the newest quest 3/3s only games are getting up to 30gb in size. Most are still in 5 to 10gb range. Oh, last thing to mention. I noticed the 'room scanning' the 3s does compared to regular quest 3 isn't quite as good or as fast. That's when it will start mapping your room, for a mixed reality game. Not a big deal I would say - it's sufficient; scan is 80% as good as 3 maybe. What this means in practice, is the extra scanning device in the regular quest 3 can just scan my room, furniture and any other objects, so that when I play a mixed-reality game and a little creature is walking around my room, behind the couch, or on stuff - it just looks a tad closer to reality, like they won't be walking slightly above, etc. due to not as exactly a scan/map of my room. If you will be SUPER heavy into the mixed-reality, maybe consider the full quest 3 instead.

Great entry to VR. Arkham: Shadows in particular blew me off my feet with this headset and how well the operating system could handle it. The only downsides are the lenses which require your eyes to be in an exact spot to see really well, and the head strap can be uncomfortable at times, but I think it is definitely worth it.

Amazing item. My niece absolutely loved this Christmas gift.

As a dad who bought the Meta Quest 3S for myself and the family, I can confidently say this has been one of the best gaming purchases we’ve made. It’s not just a console—it’s an experience that everyone in the house can enjoy. The VR immersion is incredible. Whether I’m playing solo adventure games, working out in fitness apps, or exploring educational content with my kids, the graphics are crisp, and the motion tracking is flawless. It feels like stepping into another world. Setting it up was a breeze, and the 128GB storage is more than enough for downloading a variety of games and apps. We’ve yet to run out of space despite everyone having their own favorites. What surprised me most is how much my family loves it. My kids are hooked on games that challenge their creativity and reflexes, while my wife enjoys the more relaxing experiences like virtual travel and meditation apps. It’s brought us together in ways I didn’t expect. The comfort and portability are also worth mentioning. The headset is lightweight, and the adjustable fit makes it suitable for everyone in the family. Plus, being wireless means we can take it anywhere in the house without worrying about cables. If you’re a parent looking for something that combines fun, fitness, and family time, the Meta Quest 3S is a no-brainer. It’s been a hit for us, and I’m already eyeing some of the new games we can try next. Highly recommend!
