I am a Quest-hole Now - Meta Quest 3 Review

Facebook, now known as Meta, made a big splash after purchasing Oculus by releasing the Quest 2, the single most successful VR product to date. Outselling the likes of Playstation VR, HTC Vive and Valve Index. And with the AR boom on the horizon, or at least, so Meta hopes, the Meta Quest 3 has come into make those Mixed Reality dreams a, uhh… Reality. But is it any good? Well, let's just say, the Meta Quest 3 has made us more excited about the Apple Vision Pro.

10:48 There are actually 3 microphones, one on the front for noise cancelling and 2 hidden in the gap on the faceplate for picking up your voice. This gap is also an air-intake so when the fan spools up mic quality drops substantially.

Bros complaining about prices while he’s tryna sell a jacket for $250

[Shadowfdath]

Holy shit...i figured they MIGHT have sold 2 million Quests TOTAL over the past 3 gens...not 20 million. I just wish VR was as good as we all wished it was

[LostinaMemory]

I laughed so hard when that Mexican guy put his laptop in his microwave

[mahfah]

Can’t wait until they are the first to publish Vision Pro review when it’s out

[ryanbartlett]

Thanks. I will never buy a piece of hardware that forces you to login to a company to use it -- especially Facebook. Yeah, I know I'm doing that with Android and Windows, but this feels different and I'm evaluating my relationship with Google and Microsoft too -- especially given the new Windows 11 we track everything you do feature!

[greedsmack]

Do you guys have any plans on doing a video about the Lenovo Legion Go? Ive been looking at it a lot but was hoping to see an LTT review before making a decision.

[deathscreton]

All this thing really needed was eye tracking. Hopefully the Q4 has something similar when it drops.

I do respect he spent this much money on the R&D for the Headset.

Most other companies would have just sold it as is. And update it based on user feedback over the course of a decade or two.

I got the Quest 3 recently, after having 5 years on the CV1. I had my doubts but I was absolutely sold the moment it booted up and I was shown my room. Part of why I still didnt use VR a lot was because the lack of vision to the real world, essentially its like having a big blindfold on at all times in VR. This changes everything.

I recognised Adam's voice before I did his face without the beard!

And I agree with him. A virtual workspace with passthrough seems amazing. Especially if one could move and resize screens on the fly.

I love when linus talks about VR so that more people get into the cool industry and it gets a lot more developed. Love you, Linus!

[Lord_of_Dread]

C'mon dude, your opening fact was such a cop out. "Half as much as the PS5"... what you should have said is "more than the Xbox series consoles". THAT, shows how mainstream VR has become.

[ViridianFlow]

Having used a quest 2 for 2 years or so, the switch to quest 3 was amazing. No more shuffling around to prevent flattening my cat who really loves sleeping under my feet when I'm in VR, no more worrying about getting the IPD perfect and having to adjust over and over to find the sweet spot.

Absolutely superior looking visuals in every way.

[CharlemagneTTV]

Having gone real hard into VR when Windows Mixed Reality launched and not upgrading since, the Quest 3 has been absolutely revolutionary. WMR was such a hassle to boot up, set up, and use. For anyone who jumped on the WMR train or an equal lower cost/budget headset when VR started to take root and has stepped away since, I think the Quest 3 is something that will bring you back and impress you.

[MrUkbeats]

New to VR and this thing blows my mind.
I have those feelings I got when a new console came out that had revolutionary jump, like the ps1 did from the 16-bit era.

"40 DOLLARS FOR THAT CLIMSY THING" ... proceeds to ask 250 dollars for a fucking jacket. What a joke

[adamdarklord]

You’re really trying to sell a thin ass jacket for $250……

[nocturnx]

A friend got this, it's pretty damn impressive. The AR especially is really nice. What I recommend is to get one of those head straps that allow you to add an extra battery bank so that you can play for longer
