Quest 3 512GB | VR Headset — Thirty Percent Sharper Resolution — 2X Graphical Processing Power — Virtual Reality Without Wires — Access to 40+ Games with a 3-Month Trial of Meta Horizon+ Included

I previously owned the Quest 2 and a HP Reverb 2 headsets so I can compare the quest 3 to those. Because I already owned those headsets I was on the fence about spending money on the Quest 3 but I wish I bought it sooner, its a massive upgrade, much better than expected. First the screens, I thought the screens on my HP Reverb 2 were great, definitely way better in colors and clarity than the Quest 2. So I was expecting the Quest 3 to be similar to the HP Reverb 2, a nice upgrade to my portable vr sessions. However, what I didn't expect was the Quest 3 to blow my mind on how good of screens they have. The pancake lenses really are gorgious. Everything looks way clearer and natural. Its so good that it instantly ruined both my older headsets, they just look like a blurry mess now. Second is the PC VR experience, I got the HP Reverb 2 because I could never get the Quest 2 to run good on pc vr, it look alright wired, but wireless was hopeless. When I got the Quest 3 I was just going to use it for portable vr and keep the HP Reverb 2 for pc. But I tried the wireless connection with the Quest 3 just to see how it would do, and again my mind was blown. Not only was there no noticable drop in image quality, I didn't notice any latency either. I was able to stream games like Microsoft Flight Simulator from my pc while sitting on my couch, something I cant do with my HP Reverb 2 (cord isn't long enough). The Quest 3 essentially combines the best parts of both my old vr headsets and not only matches them, but beats them. Third, I didn't really expect much from the passthrough. Sure it's in color now but I rarely used the passthrough on my quest 2 so expected I wouldn't use it here either. But the pass through of the Quest 3 is really good. It's not seemless, you can still easily tell your looking through camera's, but its good enough that if I need to check a quick message on my phone, I can actually use my phone with the headset on. So nice to do small quick tasks without having to remove my headset. Overall the Quest 3 is a huge improvement over the Quest 2 and last generation of Desktop headsets. And its price is reasonable, even after the price jump. If you're using an older headset and want something that's an upgrade but not too expensive, the Quest 3 is it.

I owned the original Oculus Rift and upgraded to the Meta Quest 3. It was a big leap forward for me. — TRACKING — Gone are the days when you had to have fixed sensors in your room with a fixed play area. Now, you can bring this anywhere and play wirelessly, with or without a computer. Just the fact that I don't need sensors is a win. The tech packed into this can detect your surrounding environments quickly and easily. It even tracks your hands and you can navigate with just your hands using gestures similar to an iPad/iPhone. — SCREEN — The screen is a big improvement over previous generations, including Meta's Pro model. The colors are vibrant, the sharpness is perfect, and getting your head in the sweet spot is much easier. I advise using an app to measure your eye distance (like Eye Measure), and then you can adjust the lenses to suit your exact eye distance for optimum viewing comfort. — STORAGE — I got the 512GB because I was torn about their pricing model. I didn't want to underdo it so I spent the extra money so I had more space, even if I didn't know if I would need it. Frankly, 256GB would've been perfect for me personally at the moment. — WIRELESS PLAY — The games runs off the headset—if you buy games from the Meta Quest store. They do run more expensive and the sales are okay when they're there. If you have been buying VR games on Steam, you can run them wirelessly with SteamVR as long as your computer's graphics card is compatible. You can also physically connect a USB-C cable to a computer to play your games. — GAMES — Games feel like an elevated Nintendo 64 at the moment. The tech is there, we just need higher-quality textures and more AAA games when the masses start pouring in. Most games seem to have a stylized polygonal quality to them, and few games are going for a realistic look. Currently, I would say the quality of games is good enough for where the technology is at the moment in terms of the processing power that's in the headset at this price point. One of the great things is Asgard's Wrath II is included free with purchase and this is one of those games that takes full advantage of this headset's capabilities. You also get a 6-month free trial of Quest+, which is two pre-selected curated games per month for as long as you're a member; you lose those games when you cancel, but if you subscribe again your library will be there. — APPS — Besides games, you can use different apps with this. I use Virtual Desktop to access my 3D movie files on my computer, plus other media I have. I can also access my SteamVR games this way as well. Then there are media consumption apps like Amazon and Netflix. Explore and you'll find useful things to install. — MIXED REALITY — This is part of the future of gaming, baby. Having a big play space at home combined with a mixed reality game is one of the most fun experiences to have. This is also similar tech in Apple's Vision Pro. There are a couple of free games included, and I can't wait to see what the future holds in this growing game category. — BATTERY — The battery lasts on average about two hours. For me, that's great because I generally get a little dizzy before that period so the headset will die before I get fully nauseous. VR dizziness is a real thing and I advise that if you start feeling some type of way, to stop sooner rather than later. I would build up your brain's tolerance to VR slowly. If you get dizzy, start timing how long it takes. Take a day off and try to add 10 minutes or so in the next session, until you can go longer. If you are one of the lucky few who are not affected by dizziness, you can plug this into a wall while playing and it will charge while you play. In theory, you could play non-stop with the right cable and charger. — SUMMARY — If you haven't gotten into VR yet, try it out in the stores. If you like it, then definitely get the Meta Quest 3. If you're unsure, you could wait for a price drop hopefully around Christmas of 2024.

First off, I'll say that i just got this and am still testing. But so far, I am super impressed. I own an original vive that I bought day 1 and then i got a reverb g2 that I have been using until the quest 3. Both if my previous headsets were corded, limited to one area of the house, and a pain to setup and use when I wanted to play. I was using light houses as well on the reverb g2 so that I could still use my better tracking vive wands. All of it was limiting and a pain which made me end up not playing. The Quest 3 was the solution I had been waiting for! Being able to do room setup in headset quick and easy is a dream come true. I was skeptical about the wireless capability for pcvr as well but I am blown away at how well it has worked so far. I've been able to play pcvr games anywhere in my house which is amazing. The pancake lenses are so much better than the fresnek lenses also. I wear glasses, and the quest 3 works well with my glasses out of the box, although I do want to get some lens inserts later. Everything seems very polished with a minimal amount of bugs. The AR pass through which it is somewhat grainy and not super clear, it's fun and works very well. The sound is pretty amazing also for the type do speakers it has.. Not enough bass in beatsaber and it can't compare to the g2 style of speakers but very impressive for what they are. Controllers feel nice and not cheap, track well, battery life on the controllers is good. The headset itself looks and feels pretty good. I think they should have put a nose flap on it because the only place I have lightleak is at the bottom of the nose area. The strap of course is everyone's gripe.. Yes, it isn't great.. But tbh it isn't as uncomfortable as what everyone keeps saying to me. It works but it just isn't the best. My one issue, aside from this being released by a company I don't like, is that they want to nickle and dime everyone for things that they should have included with the headset or to fix issues with the headset. The headset battery life is about 2 hours. That isn't long... So they sell an overpriced better elite headstrap with an extra battery to extend it to 4 hours I think. Fixes two issues by making you pay more money. Fortunately, there are plenty of aftermarket options for battery extenders and straps that are cheaper, so you don't have to spend more money on meta's overpriced accessories. I've seen reports of people getting headsets with dead pixels and there being quality control issues... So far I haven't noticed any dead pixels.. Im a stickler for that stuff cause my vive had a dead pixel and it always bothered me. I'll be checking closely to make sure the quest 3 is good. I was going to take one star off for meta nickle and diming but the headset is so good that I won't do that as of now. This may change later but it's simply the best, most versatile, most polished VR headset you can get right now for this price. I guess they kept the price down by giving a crappy strap, smaller battery, etc.

Got my husband the Meta Quest 3 as a gift and it has easily become one of the coolest things we own. He is OBSESSED with showing me everything it can do. Every evening turns into “wait babe, you HAVE to see this,” and suddenly I’m standing in the middle of a virtual aquarium or dodging objects in another dimension. Honestly though, this thing is ridiculously impressive. It’s super lightweight and comfortable, so everyone can easily swap turns without feeling like they’re strapping a brick to their face. Event his parents were able to figure it out quickly and his dad has a long-standing feud with technology, so that alone deserves 5 stars. It’s one of those gifts that ends up entertaining the whole family, not just the person you bought it for. Super immersive, surprisingly intuitive, and genuinely so much fun.

I was sckeptical about VR gaming up untill i bought this product. Pros: you can use this wirelessly for a small fun session of gaming. You can also "teather" to a PC via data link cable. For a more immersive less clunky way to play VR games which also gives you the ability to play any steam games you already own. There's an option for virtual desktop to player who cant stand feeling wired in, be warned that it still is less stable than a direct tether. Cons: the battery life is really really short. I opted to purchase another external battery that will charge the onboard battery while you play. If both are fully charged i might get 3 or 4 full hours of game play. Update: May 19, 2026 This product still holds up well, and i have some more input to add that can be a con if you tether to PC. However there is a very easy cheap fix. Updated Pros: Crystal clear clarity still sfter many months of consistent use. (MUST BE SMART AND USE MICROFIBER TOWELS TO CLEAN LENSES) As long as you have a stable wifi connection obline games are still doing okay. (I still prefer being tethered to PC) Updated Cons: If you prefer to PC game with tether then make sure your motherboard supports PD USC C. I found out mine did not so i had to purchae a separate USB C data link cable that has an added USB C quick charge hub on the same cable. Making the battery level not drain too fast.

I’ve been using the Meta Quest 3 for a while now and it’s easily the most impressive standalone VR headset I’ve owned. Setup was quick and straightforward—within about 10 minutes I was already inside the main VR environment downloading games and exploring the interface. The first thing that stands out is the visual clarity. The Quest 3 uses displays with about 2064 × 2208 pixels per eye, which is a noticeable upgrade compared to older VR headsets. Text looks sharper, distant objects are easier to see, and the “screen door effect” is much less noticeable than previous models. The pancake lenses also make a big difference. The headset is noticeably thinner and the clarity stays consistent even toward the edges of your vision. With older Fresnel lenses you often had to move your head to keep things in the sweet spot, but on the Quest 3 it feels much more natural. Another feature I really like is the color passthrough mixed-reality mode. You can actually see your real room while interacting with virtual objects, which opens up some interesting uses beyond gaming. It’s useful for quick adjustments without taking the headset off, and some apps blend the real and virtual world surprisingly well. Performance is also strong. The headset runs on the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip with 8GB of RAM, so games load quickly and the tracking feels very responsive. Hand tracking and the included controllers both work well depending on what you prefer. Comfort is decent for a stock headset. It weighs around 515 grams, which is fairly typical for standalone VR devices, and I’ve been able to use it for 1–2 hour sessions without much fatigue.

I'll get straight to the points. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. *The Good* Excellent visuals. The graphics are awesome and the VR is so cool. The MR (Mixed Reality) is really cool too. With mixed reality you can setup a DnD table overtop of your own table. Large library of Games and Apps. Everything from Classic zombie games in full VR to MR and Zen apps to chill and relax you. Even have Duck hunt VR. Yes, someone made duck hunt in VR. The sound and video quality are really good good. Watching movies, anime and TV shows is really fun. It's like being in a theater without the sticky floors and the "aww snap! Nuh uh and oh hell naw!" Lol. Easy to setup and use. Easy to change the head strap if you want a comfier or cushion type one. Adding a compatible battery power bank is easy and suggested. *The bad* Quick battery drain. This is my only real issue. The battery drains pretty quick and even faster when using MR. But that can be offset by using a compatible battery power bank or a 20ft USB C cable. *The Ugly* I can't say much here. The price for many is pricey ands if you want to play games with your family, they each have to have their own head set. That can get very expensive. Unlike a console, you can't plug in a second controller and just go. Only you can see what's on your screen. This is definitely more of a solo system or making online friends type system. But if you can afford it, I suggest getting two for a family. *Bonus - The Awesome* Emulation 😁 Installing Retro Arch is easy and with 512GBs of room, you can install lots of classic games and play them. I know you can do that on a PC or buy a retro pie, but it looks so cool right on front of you and looking like it's a movie screen. With the help of SideQuest, you can install CX file explorer and then Retro Arch and copy your classic games from you PC to the Quest. And lastly for anyone asking or maybe those who don't have the extra cash after putting out the funds for this device. I can't recommend pirating, but a quick Google search for Meta and the opposite of mother can help you with that problem.

**UPDATE** It took FOREVER for my refund to get processed so I ended up purchasing one from Best Buy. Everything seemed great until I was greeted again by the blank screen. I did some research online since a few weeks had passed and online forums were starting to catch up to the newly released Quest 3. One person mentioned that the proximity sensor had issues detecting when the headset was on your head. So while I had the headset on my head, I stuck my finger up from the bottom to where the sensor was located in between both eyebrows and surprisingly, the screen came on and everything worked fine. Playing with a finger up my headset was not ideal so I am seriously considering returning the Quest 3. I tend to play a lot of action/exercise apps so I usually play with a black skull cap on my head to reduce the amount of sweat that I get on the headset. It seems like the proximity sensor doesn't like either the color or the material as the screen constantly cuts in and out if I adjust my headset even the slightest bit. Playing without a skull cap, I was able to adjust the headset as much as I wanted and the screen stayed on. The Quest 2 did not have this problem. I also had a minor issue charging the Quest 3 and official elite head strap with extended battery. Normally you can leave the extended battery plugged into the headset and plug the charging cable into the extended battery in order to charge both. I happened to play until the extended battery and headset completely lost battery and shutdown on its own so I left it to charge overnight. The led indicating it was charging came on but the next day, both the headset and extended battery were still at 0% and the headset only showed a low battery symbol. I ended up unplugging the elite strap extended battery from the headset and charged them separately. Both are now operating normally and can be charged using just the extended battery charge port. Lots of weird issues which the Quest 2 did not have and the Meta website was absolutely no help whatsoever. It costs double the price of the Quest 2 and so far there aren't many apps that can use the mixed reality feature so my review still stands at 1 star. It is working for now and I will update if anything elses comes up.. **ORIGINAL REVIEW** Setup was a breeze, all my apps downloaded with no issues and I had a blast for about an hour before being prompted to charge the headset. One hour is all it took to go from 100% down to 2% which was my first disappointment. Maybe the setup and downloading of all the apps is what caused the battery to drain so quickly? Maybe the mixed reality using all the cameras drained the batteries? I will never know because after fully charging the headset and powering it on, I was greeted by the Meta logo followed by a black screen. Controllers would not connect and the Meta Quest app would not connect to the headset. I tried a factory reset by holding the volume down and power button but was again greeted with the Meta logo followed by a black screen. I tried the factory reset a second time to see if it would help but had the same results. While I was chatting with Amazon Customer Service, the headset eventually booted up with the setup process but now when I adjust the IPD dial, the screen cuts in and out. I LOVED the Meta Quest 2 and I do love this Meta Quest 3 but it seems like they have some kinks to work out. There was no option to exchange the item since apparently it was shipped by Amazon but sold by Meta so I have to return the item before purchasing a new one. I will update once I get a working headset..

I love every moment using it really really exceeded my expectations

Loja 100% transparente e empenhada em nos atender. Todo o processo foi bem ágil, desde o primeiro contato até entrega. Produto postado no mesmo dia da compra. Comprei no dia 22/05 e a previsão era para dia 29/05, entanto, recebi no dia 27 (se não fosse o correios teria recebido no dia 26). Sobre o produto, a qualidade é excepcional, vale o investimento, cada centavo, o único ponto negativo realmente está apontado para a bateria, realmente pra quem está se divertindo acaba bem rápido, mas a solução já existe em duas opções, um cabo de dados + carregamento ou uma strap com bateria extra. No fim, você não precisa desses itens para ter uma experiência completa, mas ajuda significativamente no uso.

I upgraded from my Quest 2 to this and oh my what an upgrade. Whilst it doesn't have better "graphics" the image is much clearer and crisper, and it has better performance than most headsets. Pancake lenses are different than the 2's lenses so it took me a couple of hours to fully adjust (5 years of adjustment to the quest 2's lenses vs 1 hour of adjusting to the 3's) People say the 3 is heavier but I disagree. I feel like it's less bulky, yes, but the 3 is much lighter than the 2. And the touch plus controllers are just chefs kiss. I always hated the quest 2 rings and not having them feels so freeing, and I also don't really encounter tracking issues with them either. And as for the colour passthrough, it's trippy at first, but really cool. It's fun to play games in AR around my house. Worth it? Definitely, plus you get 512GB of storage, that's like 3 times what the 2 had. I have about 3 storage heavy games downloaded that my quest 2 couldn't handle, but the 3 just takes it like a champ. All in all good headset, great buy, from me it gets a 4.5/5 because the default headstrap is still garbage, but you can always buy a custom one (which you should). Iamcool out. 😎

Nice product
