This is what I’ve been waiting for - Meta Quest 3S

Check out the Sharge CarbonMag Magsafe 5k and 10k below:

Meta's new all-in-one VR headset is here! With a lower price than the Quest 3, will the Quest 3S make Riley's dreams come true, or is this Quest "2+" not worth the cost savings?

Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.

This should have been a main channel review! But I am always happy to see Riley

[crocks]

When I saw it would be $299, I said to myself, "It's good enough and cheap enough, " and put in a preorder. It's my first VR headset, and totally worth it.

[tomgreen]

Why don't we have a version of worms yet where you can play in pass through and blow up bits of your couch?

[sturdybutter]

Studies have shown it’s physically impossible to look sillier than Linus playing beat saber.

[DerivitivFilms]

The upgrade comes from the chipset. Quite a few games are stopping support for the Quest 2, and Some new and upcoming games just don't even support Quest 2. But IF you are just using the Quest 2 for PCVR, then no, don't get the 3S get the 3 for the better lenses. I got the 3S just for a cheap solution to play Batman and Bohemoth.

[NaturalxGains]

I got my Quest 3s a few days ago. Its my very first VR headset. I am amazed how good the VR/ MR experience is.

[SynthRiders]

Hey Riley and Short Circuit team - thank you so much for your kind words and playing Synth Riders! You certainly did a great job moving to those beats ;) If you ever want to dive deeper into the Experiences™ our game offer, please don't hesitate to shoot us an email and we'd be more than happy to hook you up.

Ngl i kinda like the ring on the controllers, it has saved my fingers multiple times from hitting the wall.

[TheWadesauce]

To clarify, they're IR emitters, not sensors. Still helps with tracking in low light, as well as using passthru as night vision goggles

[mariueg]

Be careful with glasses inside. I scratched mine playing BeatSaber on the Quest 3. Got me prescription lenses since then.

0:00 Deceived that this video didn't begin with "I'm Riley excited"

[Robato]

I feel a lot of people think VR is still just beat saber and demos. I hope you can start showing other more impressive games like you did with Batman. There's plenty of long and thoughtful games now!

[douglasmoncsko]

I'm getting the Quest 3 for christmas, glad to see a new update of what its like to have one of these. I hear there's been a lotta updates that make it really great to use and have, im excited to try it out. Good work Riley!

[aikeduke]

5:35 they are bleeping out word "sh*rt" for Linus, that's so cute

[StormRaid]

The Quest 3S is pretty much like the Xbox Series S compared to the Xbox Series X.
Quest 3S is just a cheaper version of Quest 3, which is what I was hoping for. It's nice to see companies coming out with cheaper versions of their products to attract a broader audience.

Two notes from someone who switched from quest 2 to 3. The lens upgrade is worth it by itself. The sweet spot on Q2 was tiny and the first thing I noticed when I bought the Q2. Basically to see things clearly I would have to only move my neck, not my eyes. You can get used to it but it's not a good experience tbh. I assume Q3S has the same issue if it has the same lens assembly. The other thing is, in my experience the pass through doesn't tend to look as good as in this video, mostly because I don't play in perfect studio lighting conditions, but there's no pass through game I care about so for me it doesn't matter.

[Sir......]

are you really excited? is it really what you've been waiting for ? don't lie to us canada man !!!

[sothbiss]

Got the OG Oculus Quest back in 2020 and was rocking it for 3 years. Skipped Quest 2 but ordered Quest 3S. Hopefully won't be disappointed.

[ironmaiden]

This is how a review is meant to be. Non-biased. Legit

[PocketPixelPortablePower]

I have had quest 3 for a year almost at this point and it is an entirely different experience today than it was a year ago. Meta keeps pumping out MASSIVE updates. The Apple Vision Pro made meta develop better software for the quest, so thank you Apple! Get a quest 3s. It's a 299 personal movie theater and then some.
