Meta Quest 3 - 1 MONTH Later… is it worth it?

Living with the Meta Quest 3 headset for 30 days... It's the best Virtual Reality & Mixed Reality headset for the money... but should you buy it

Hey Chaps! Do you own any VR headsets (and would you be tempted by a Q3?)

[FatNorthernBigot]

I bought a Quest 3 and now my house is infested with zombies. No one seems to be complaining about this in their reviews. Perhaps I have an early, prototype model.

In 10 years, this technology is going to be absolutely BONKERS

Upgraded to the quest 3 from the rift s, absolutely loving it. Maybe not a big enough upgrade for people who got the quest 2 relatively recently but coming from a wired older PCVR headset running on a mid-tier computer this was an amazing jump

I've been wanting to get into VR for a ling time, but no matter which of these headsets emerge on the market, they just never seem ready for prime time and have too many drawbacks to justify the cost for me. We're up to the 3rd version of this, and still, in my opinion, it's just not ready, outside of a novelty experience or experiment. I want to dive into this bad, but am hesitant. For now, especially in this current economy, it's a no go for me.

You can put on a basecap backwards so the strap feels more comfy.

I love my Quest 3 honestly. I mainly play Beatsaber, Pistol whip, some VR Chat, and occasionally Onward. The battery lasts long enough for me there, because honestly I just dont want to be standing that long anyway. But besides that, I've been using the mixed reality with Immersed, so that I can have a three monitor setup with my laptop while I work at school. It's great! Completely portable multi-monitor setup, and complete privacy at that! Well, apart from the random people staring at me like I can't see them 😂

Got mine yesterday and I absolutely love it. First time with a vr so obviously I'm mind blown lol

[kumarsalib]

I feel like we're getting really close to something great, but it's just not quite there yet.

You can get Amazon copies of every one of the accessories for about an extra £100 instead of £600.

I have already listed my Quest 2, and plan on getting the Quest 3 before the end of the month. I prefer VR over my Xbox Series X to be honest. Maybe because I am 45, and ready for something new to experience.

[scottbelcher]

Just bought one today. I never had a VR headset but played around on the quest 2. This thing is an excellent experience over all so far. I'm now able to hang with my best friend who lives in another state and give the guy a fist bump. Can't really ask for more.

What about connecting it to the PC via USB cable? Yes, now there's a cable, but does it prevent the battery from draining and does it allow for superior graphics?

[ForeverFrengers]

I think what it all boils down to are the quality of the games. For now you can count on one hand how many top quality games that are out there. For every Half-Life: Alyx and SuperHot, there are so many less than mediocre games that I'm really not convinced to spend all that cash on a VR set right now.

I love my quest 3 but it is so painful to wear its like wearing a torture device. the pico 4 for me was very comfortable straight out the box so I'm very disappointed in meta for the very poor head strap.

I ordered the bobovr 3 so hopefully this solves the problem, I refuse to give meta any more money by buying their pro head strap.

[jasonhulley]

Purchased a quest 3 at launch, design is improved, clarity is better but battery is definitely a disappointment. I mainly use it for PC VR and even when connected via an official meta USB-C cable, the unit still drains albeit not quite as fast. Pass through is also very grainy and not what you see in reviews unless you are probably playing in a very well lit studio or outside. Controllers are improved feeling a little more premium. Overall an upgrade on the previous unit but with some annoyances. Still arguably the best headset at this price for PC VR with the added flexibility of being able to be cable free.

[davefulford]

I just managed to pick up a Q3 for £250. I loved my Q2 and used it for PCPVR. Initially I didn't see a huge difference but that improved processing speed, larger FOV and sharp graphics definitely make it a winner. There will be loads of cheap ones for sale after Christmas when new owners get motion sickness.

I bought a quest 3 refunded it a couple weeks ago, still very excited for vr as a whole just not where I want to to be at yet with the games and technology. Will most likely jump back into vr in a few years when everything has progressed further.

[richardglady]

Thank you for that comprehensive video. Lots to think about. Well made and enjoyable.

Very polished review, better than many season VR youtubers. Yes I bought two already one for my brother also. Mine was an upgrade to my G2 which it is, more importantly I wanted to get into the Quest standalone eco system, never owned a standalone wireless headset before, it's quite liberating. I've played more titles on the Quest 3 in the past month or so than I ever played on the G2. Love the headset and can't wait for the new titles to appear over Christmas, meanwhile I have a ton of stuff to seek out which I already own, fun times!
