    Quest 3S is a great step up from the previous gene

    I think the Meta Quest 3S is a great balance of new technology and cost effectiveness. I am a long time Quest 2 user who purchased shortly after that model came out. I spent over $500 to buy into that tech early on. For that generation, it was a good experience. Immersive and compelling. It had it's faults though. The passthrough cameras were just black and white, the resolution was only fair, and the tracking was very basic. The Quest 3S fixes all these issues. The Quest 3S is a cheaper version of the Quest 3 that's been out for a while. I never bought the Quest 3 (or the Quest Pro before it) for one big reason- price. THe PRo was almost $1500 and the 3 was $800 when they came out. Too pricey for me. The new Quest 3S brings that down to a reasonable $300. Well worth a leap to try it out. Putting on the Quest 3S, it was much lighter and a bit smaller than the 2 I was used to.The fit is comfortable and there is good options for adjusting the headband. Once on and fitted, it was comfortable to wear for an hour or two. I didn't do anything strenuous, so it never got too hot to wear. The hand controllers are an improved design from those on the Quest2. Gone are the circular bumpers. I appreciate this as those always got in the way. THe new controllers are nicely molded so they feel comfortable in your hands. Booting up the system, it immediately asks you to bring up the Meta app on your phone (iphone for me). jumping between the headset and your phone was easy as the headset boots into passthrough mode so you can see things with the headset on. Did I mention that passthrough mode on the Quest 3S is in color? It's awesome and a huge improvement over the 2. Once all the setup with the phone is done, the 3S heads straight into a set of tutorials. This is appreciated as there is a LOT to learn. It's nice that the tutorials can be revisited as often as necessary. Hand tracking between what you see in the headset and the controllers was very accurate. Selecting things on screen was easy. There is a HUGE amount of content available to choose from. It's a bit overwhelming. There are tutorials for most apps that help you figure them out. I tried the built in immersive apps and downloaded the YouTube VR app off the web. Everything I tried blew my socks off. The visuals were amazing. The sound coming from the headset default speakers was also really impressive for how small they are. It was very immersive 3D sounds. It just added to the experience. I loved the VR experience in most of the slow moving apps. Some of the faster experiences like roller coasters and such made me a bit motion sick. The 3S package came with a download of BatMan Arkham Asylum game. The game made this old guy a bit ill, but my daughter and her friends absolutely loved it. Downsides? There are only a few I could come up with. The fit of the headset was good, but there was a significant gap around my nose that let distracting light in. I played with the fit and tried the extra fit equipment in the box used for glasses, but nothing really closed out the gap. It's a small nit, but it was distracting. While the sound experience was great and immersive, it's load enough to bother anyone around you. This isn't a silent headset. I quickly realized this and set up some headphones. Make sure you have bluetooth headphones available because they eliminated the 3.5mm headphone jack (disappointing). You can also tell where they cut corners to make the price as low as possible. They warn to keep the lenses out of the sun, but didn't provide even the simplest shield to protect them. It's an 'extra'. Also, the lenses are a cheaper version than those on the Quest 3. This got the price down but at the cost of some clarity. Do I recommend the Quest 3S? Absolutely. While not as feature rich as the Quest 3, it's a LOT cheaper and does a pretty good job balancing cost/capability. It's a big step up from the Quest 2 as well. I also appreciate that Meta does not make you link your Facebook account to the Queest. You can keep it separate. I'm not a huge Facebook fan, so I don't need more advertising on the site based on what I did with the Quest. Overall it's a great purchase and I can't wait to dive in deeper.
