Yeah, not to mention for $100 dollars more, that’s 256 more gigs *and* you get pancake lenses too. I feel like people who are aware of that would be hard-pressed to buy a 256. I think it should be $20-40 less
Honestly was about to buy a quest 3 (my 1st headset) glad I waited, I always knew VR would be the next big thing, but simply felt the technology and price just wasn't there yet. This new price for the quest 3 is perfect, reduce price and big memory.
Tbh I'm kinda glad 3s is not better than the 3. Speaking as a person who just bought it in the begging of the year lol) Although I'd love to see big improvements to the vr in general. ;)
It's coming, they've hardly released any games that were fully developed for the quest 3 specifically from beginning to end. Lot of ports, and games designed for Q2 just upscaling to the Q3 so far but games developed for it are about to be insane @@DARKredDOLLAR
@@alexclark7284 Where did you buy it from? You might be able to do a return for refund and then buy the 512. A lot of stores have a 30 day return policy but it depends on what they take back
Why did they think that a SPRING in the facial interface was a good idea? The last thing I want when I play Vr is to have my lenses bouncing up and down
yeah, ive litterally drilled holes into my quest 3's facial interface, shoved toothpicks into it, and glued it in place with silicone because i was tired of it collapsing down to the lowest position (the adjusters suck) and my eyeballs touching the lenses practically.
Vrc needs to make two types of account 18+ with no restriction and minor accounts with heavy restrictions and there should be creditcard verification with a warning email to the card owner
the price for the quest 3 in europe seems to not have changed yet even tho i do see the 3s for pre order and the free batman game for quest 3 and 3s but the price for the 528gb version is still 699 euro.
I'm still on quest 2. Seems like the a is same as quest 3 minus the lenses. I'll probably end up upgrading to the s. Was waiting for the meta connect to make up my mind.
Smart marketing on Meta. Feels like they repurposed any extra stock of Q2s and turned them into an upgraded 3S by swapping out the outter casing and some internals. 🤔
Great :D Now as a developer I can FINALLY enable those sweet post processes for Quest "2"S []-) ...and special VFX! You have no clue how happy I am about a better mobile processor improvement!
@@dottork3662you can play it on both but I do t think it will be a package deal with quest 3. Onky with quest3s. Because the site says with batman * and that axterix says enough for me
I just realized another reason I don’t like the Quest 3S-the three charging prongs on the bottom are not there! So in order to charge this headset u will have to plug and unplug the USB C port. Just another negative with the lenses and rigid IPD. Save another $200 and get the much better Quest 3 after Oct 15…..
I CANNOT thank you enough for letting me know about that price drop! I just bought mine yesterday for over $500 and it probably wasn't going to arrive until the 15th of October. Thanks to you, I got my money back, and bought it off of best buy for $70 less and it's getting delivered tomorrow! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
The thing that bothers me about the Quest ecosystem is that there are no good Headstrap options that don’t have a big knob or bulge at the back that make it extremely uncomfortable to sit and use. If you play a lot of flight sims and have a headrest like most people do, it’s a huge problem.
It's the price you pay to use it when it comes out vs waiting a year. Now if you recently bought it for the full price at either $500 or $650 and can't return it yeah sure I would be upset. However I would've been more upset if they intro the Quest 4 as well. To me it shouldn't be a biggie as price is always relative to everyone. The latter would've been devastating tho. 😅
same resolution display as quest 2, but since they didn't run games at the full resolution of that panel they are claiming higher resolution as the new processor will be able to push it closer (probably all the way tbh) to full resolution.
The lenses being different is the only real major one though. As someone who is still on the quest 2 because I can't afford the quest 3, I am so going for this
It’s cool but damn it’s ugly. I feel like it would get a lot more mainstream popularity if they focused on design. People who arent VR enthusiasts dont want to wear something ugly on their face
@@goatguythepowerful its mainly those dots on the front it looks cheap and tacky and like its a chinese knockoff of a real headset. If they changed it to a different design on the front it would be a lot better like maybe if they made the whole front a glossy black plastic so it would blend in. Out of all their headset designs ever this one is by far the worst imo and id rather spend the extra $200 on the quest 3 to not look silly wearing that thing or even buy a quest 2.
With Fresnel lenses and Quest 2 resolution there's just no reason to buy this for existing owners. I also think for new owners those could be off-putting, especially the tiny sweet spot on the lenses. Bad first impression can really hurt adoption.
I wanna see more on that breathable facial interface and definitely wanna see if quest 3 head straps will just work with the quest 3s, It would be a very big thumbs up from me if meta did that. Also wanna know if the battery headstraps if they fit on the headset will be able to charge the headset faster then it drains.
I just think those $200 would be better shaved off by having the old chip. I have a quest 3, and every time I try a quest 2 at my friends' houses or whatever, it just looks so much worse. I understand it from Meta's point of view, but I think it makes the product worse for the consumer.
My only question is why was the end of the video in the bathroom? Were you not able to hold it until after you finished filming? Seems like a strange choice to dump while filming a video about vr.
For me, the biggest feature which makes the Quest 3 the Quest 3 are the pancake lenses and free IPD settings. Without this, it's basically a Quest 2 with more power and better MR, which is fine, but it's no Quest 3. I remember when I first used my Quest 3 after PSVR1 and PSVR2 and initially felt "This is what it should look like". But with fresnel lenses, all new users will get the same sweet spot problem every other headset with fresnel lenses has. This is a sad introduction for them to VR.
How does the lack of the depth sensor affect the passthrough and MR experiences? A big selling and talking point of the regular Quest 3 was the passthrough and MR experiences.
Now I'm thinking about upgrading my q2 to q3s and I have one question. Is the mount from the q3s the same as the q2 or do I need to 3D print an extension for my bobovr m2 head strap to fit the q3s Btw, it's a really good video, I like your content
blows me away that they still won't improve the comfort level with a better strap / battery option , I guess it makes sense to get people on the hook then upsell them things like that but it can really make a bad first impression, and imo there needs to be almost no points of friction for adoption of something that already has to compete with established forms of entertainment.
I have the 2 and 3 so I won't be purchasing one but honestly this is amazing for people new to VR. I still remember the wow factor of when I first got my Quest 2 and the 3S is a faster, better version of the 2 for the same price. Can't beat that. However, if I was a 2 user, I would save up a little more to get the 3 as the pancake lens will be the biggest immediate standout vs 2 right out of the gate. Super crispy.
As a pcvr user there isn't really much reason for me to upgrade from quest 2 to 3s, mixed reality and higher processing isn't really my priority for that reason I would either upgrade to the quest 3 or quest pro since they have better screens
I think I heard one of the speakers say; if you already own click-on prescription lenses with your Q2, you can use them on the Q3, so I think the lenses are exactly the same as the lenses of the Q2. That would be a plus for people with glasses who want to switch from Q2 tot Q3s.
If the headset starts fully charged, and the controllers start fully charged but with the rechargeable batteries, since they’re really small and light, will the controller batteries run out before the headset does? With the Quest 3, if you got the rechargeable batteries for the controllers, you absolutely had to remember to put them back on the charging dock if you wanted a full play session the next time you picked up the headset.
It seems to be great for those wanting to finally step into VR who've never tried it or have had a go at someone elses Vr but thought it too expensive, especially if they're going to be offering the chance to pay it off at $20usd per month. I have the Q3 and have been happy about using it as it's such a massive step up from my HTC-Vive but it is a shame to see that it's using the frenel lenses rather than pancake ones. I'm guessing they did this so as to not lose sales of the Q3?
With this information, I don't feel bad about buying a quest 2 for $200 instead of waiting for the 3s. Still kinda wished I would have saved for the Quest 3 though. 😅
The amount of salt over a more affordable headset from Quest 3 owners is insane. More people can experience VR. People should be happy, not coping and seething. 🥴

Both

I have Q2 and Q3 so... I guess I don't need Q3S for sure..
Yes don't waste your money
Unless you want to sell your 2 and fork over a little cash for a 3s, yeah I'd keep it
Denial is a river in Egypt
Can I have it :(
The batman game being included that makes it worth it. I'd still go for quest 3 128gb for a discounted price.
Question about your glasses? We're they Meta Ray-ban?
Q3s looks good, slim upgrade for a Quest 2 for those on a budget.

Hi!
Hi APerson!
Can u do a video on watching Netflix and or sports in the headset ? I’m not a gamer
"Mom, dad, I know we already have the quest 1, 2, and 3, but can we get the quest 3S?"
I think it would definitely be a nice upgrade from the quest 2 and the quest 3s being 300 dollars makes it a better deal.
Recording while pooping. That's the way to go! 💩
The thing that bothers me about the Quest ecosystem is that there are no good Headstrap options that don’t have a big knob or bulge at the back that make it extremely uncomfortable to sit and use. If you play a lot of flight sims and have a headrest like most people do, it’s a huge problem.
brought to you from the bathroom, lol
Is it compatible with the quest pro controllers
Haha good video, I saw Tyrial
Love this jay!
I brought a 128gb quest 3 4 days ago is there any way for me to get the Batman game ? Also it’s unfortunate because it’s so much cheaper now 😢😢
Sorry, pretty sure you now have to pay for it

been a while since i watched one of your videos, but this video was really well made.
Thank you Sephirothin! That means a lot :)
how good is the mixed reality compared to the quest 3?
The same
My Question :(re worded) How much of a resolution drop is there on the 3s compared to the 3. With a game like Batman which is made for the quest 3
What do you mean. It's the same processor. Only difference is the resolution so the picture won't be as sharp.
@@GameJunky513 Thats what I meant.
It's basically a quest 2 with quest 3 processor
