I was originally going to get the Q3 as my first VR headset when it was announced but then I also wanted to play PCVR, so what I did was to get a used Q2 and then upgraded to BOBOVR strap and then use what remains of my intended budget and added a little bit more to get a decent PC, and I am happy with my purchase... playing the large library for my Q2 and enjoying smooth PCVR gaming on it has been the greatest decision ever. I might still get a better headset perhaps after a year or so but so far with what the Q2 gave me, it was an awesome experience... never cared for MR as i prefer my VR to take me away from the real world vs reminding me of it lol
Well think about phones, they generally stay the same price every year, but they don't get this big of a leap, but the tech becomes cheaper over time. So you're way of thinking is definitely flawed. If it always went up due to better tech phones would cost a minimum of 3000 dollars. But this price on the quest 3 is good because they're making like only 5 bucks each headset due to production prices
Still blows my mind that both cost below $700 for what they bring. I'm not asking Meta to raise the price, they just need to advertise their good products better because cluless people still think is just another cheap Nintendo Wii clone
Just get a Quest 2, if your tight on cash and can't spend that much on a Quest 3, a Quest 2 is perfectly fine, a Quest 3s may be around the corner, but the Quest 2 is going for around 100 dollars on the after market more commonly in recent months, especially if your new to VR, getting a Quest 2 is a great entry point
500 is not bad for the technology within the 3; I’m holding off for the 4 which potentially could offer the eye tracking. Recently I picked up a used 2 for just $110 and was able to clean it spotless and buy the attachable batteries and change out the left controller module due to stick drift. Also polished the glass down for clarity. All in all, cost me about 150-160 ish total with all that and it works flawlessly!
My opinion it is Not worth having more then 2 pair sneaker. The Fact that you have full colour passtrough its like saying, i dont Need the new samsung with colour display. Im fine with my nokia and the black white colour screen
I think the Quest 4 is a bit to far out to hold out on one, we got the Quest 3s coming probably later this year, so to expect a Quest 4 in the next 2 years is unlikely since Meta are beginning to over spend/over invest in VR and need to make more returns on headset sales since their selling them at such a high of a loss just to get them out their in consumers
Another difference between the Q2 & Q3 is the mic on the Q2 is better - not better in regards to quality tho as the Q3 is actually better. The Q3 design of where the mic is (behind the front panel) means you get a popping sound because the soundwave from speaking has to enter the plastic cover via the seam (no mic holes - the Q2 has 2 mic holes) & it vibrates when the usual pronounced words causes popping (as per why mics have pop filters).
My older brother gave me his quest 1 after he bought a quest 2 a few years ago, so i just use it with airlink and play pc vr since i already had a good gaming pc. I also learned that the quest 1 has an oled screen while the quest 2, 3, and pro have lcd screens so that's nice
lcd is a downgrade from oled with proper resolution. Micro oled screens will totally blow away lcd. Upcoming high end headsets will be using micro oled to give high contrast, true blacks and vivid color compared to lcd.
@@Chadman333 Indeed, but ppl still game on LCD flat screens because the price is prohibitive versus the benefit. Certainly for TV's the microOLED would be more of a benefit. The problem is the graphics of VR games don't usually compete with flat gaming graphics due to higher complexity & of course less developers even doing VR games. Despite Apple releasing the AVP & it's lack of apps, games etc it will drive the push for better graphics for VR gaming & of course non gaming apps. Still ppl are not going to strap a heavy headset on for mundane tasks that Apple claim ppl will do on the APV.
@triax7006 I agree that people won't want to strap a hmd onto their face (especially for long periods) for tasks they can do right on their desktop or phone. As far as LCD monitors go, I don't mind them at all. I don't do much PC gaming on them though. My issue with the LCD panels in VR headsets is that it breaks the immersion for me when in dark environments. All I see is the gray fog of the backlight. When using OLED it convinces me I am really there.
@@Chadman333 Well the problem with LCD's for VR is the screen is magnified so the pixels are also magnified, not a huge issue when playing games, more of an issue when using them for computing or watching movies due to just sitting there consuming media. Of course even though the AVP has a high pixel density it is still poor compared to a good microOLED panel form a comparable distance. Again the screen is close, the screen is magnified, but certainly better than LCD. The other problem is ghosting with microOLED (and all OLED's) & of course screen burn - which may be an issue with ppl using the same screens for a long time in the same position.
Well, no, not really. The better processor massively improves the performance of the PCVR wireless streaming. And the lenses are a massive improvement, and the passthrough is still useful for PCVR users.
Never had VR before... im leaning towards quest 3.. ive seen rumors of the next Quest being a lite version, and the one after is the quest 4 pr which is rumored to be 2,000$ with eye tracking and OLED. I would assume the next one affter that is a normal quest 4? and thats in late 2025? Confusing forsure, but man I want to try VR pretty bad.
@@edgarbatenga4923 if you want the performance upgrade then go with Q3 if you just want the best entry VR with loads of games, PCVR support, decent performance and the best price point then go with Q2. Personally I have found more issues with the Q3 than the Q2 and prefer the older headset.
Got the quest 3 512GB and its honestly a massive upgrade coming from the quest 1. I can't play VR with wires as it makes me nauseous for some reason but untethered i could play for hours, so it helps that its the powerful device.
Just picked up a Q2 on marketplace for $140 barely used. It is AMAZING!!! I'm stepping up from a Nintendo Wii. Yes, the original Wii, so I'm easy to please. My jaw dropped when I was diving with dolphins and sharks.
2:15 Actually the one big difference in as far as sound goes with the quest 3 is that it can get a lot louder than the Quest 2. I use bigscreen a lot to watch TV and movies and the main complaint I had with the Quest 2 is that I always had to have the volume maxed out to hear anything but with the Quest 3 I actually need to take the volume down at least 3 or so points so I don't damage my hearing.
If my grandson's account is canceled by Facebook/Meta because of lying about his age can it be reinstated? He is locked out of his VR2 If I purchased a new VR3 would it work? I really liked your review.
Thank you man same I got the quest 2 for Christmas and it does all the stuff I need it to do. The only thing is how it feels the quest 2 hurts my forehead.
@@kingswerdOld Frenel lenses and very limited ipd adjustment due to single screen is the true downside to Quest 2. Other than those, most of the VR games ran well in standalone which I recommend because is the best wirless vr experiemce solution. You can play Quest 2 on pc with streaming which is not a good quality wireless or wired (which is better)
Thank you for the honest and balanced video. I have the 2 and a lot in vested in accessories. Prescription lens, extra Bobovr headstrap and batteries, along with charging dock. VR stock so I'd need adapters for the grips. Switching to the 3 would be expensive. Do you still think the 3 is worth it?
The Quest 3 Controllers may look better and be better for getting your hands close together, but I sure do lose tracking a whole lot more than I did with the Quest 2 controllers. They leds in the controllers just aren't as viewable by the cameras where they are in the Quest 3 controllers. I wish I could use Quest 2 controllers with the Quest 3. They are way better.
@@kaysarinc the tracking issues are only a problem in fast paced games like beatsaber but I can confirm the same issue from playing expert saber on both headsets. The eye strain from the new lenses and the tracking issues (beatsaber main) caused me to sell my Q3 and go back to Q2. also the mic in the Q3 has varying versions of quality due to where meta placed it, not important but worth knowing. Can sound a bit muffled or poppy unless you stick some mic foam where it's located.
No lie, the Quest 2 tracking is way better. No contest. The rings are trackable from more angles and the upward angled cameras on the Quest 2 give you better tracking above your head. They've tried to fake it on the Quest 3 with smarter software, but it can only make a guess at what it can't see. The Quest 3 may have a better processor and color cameras, but its tracking quality does not come close to the Quest 3. I say this as someone who's had both.
so foreveryone that comes to this video, quest 3 if you have the money, if you dont watch his other video about some other device that is meant to be better than quest 2.......
2:16, they do not sound familiar in any way bruh, what are you on about....??? the quest 3 sounds like you took the quest 2 and turned up the bass in an eq
Quest 2 was 350 on launch, it’s 250 rn bc of new headset release. Quest 3 will be 300 when new one comes out. Def worth it for quest 3 played both a good amount
Should've mentioned the graphical quality in games. For games like Bonelab, the Quest 3 has superior quality because of the better chipset. This being said, it still isn't close to what a good PC setup would get you.
Hi. Thank you for this short direct to the point comparaison. Where is the other headset? Does it have pancake also standalone like Q2? Please give thr video. I still didn't buy waiting for you
That would be the Quest pro, but that'll set you back by 1000 dollars, theres also the Pico Neo 4, but that headset is only sold in the Middle East as of now, the Quest 3 is the only consumer manufacted VR headset with Pancake lenses
I think that I will buy quest 3, like the price is not really makes it worse it's still good, and I think quest 3 worth it (better performance, smaller and more)
feel me man. 2 year old quest 2 (still has the oculus logo on both controllers* games get delayed x2 since its old asf and now saving up for vive xr elite
quest 2 is def the way to go if you want an easy way to get into vr for the first time. basically a $100 VR headset. But I feel like if you've had the quest 2 for a while, even if you do pcvr, I feel the upgrade is worth it. If you used the quest 2 for awhile, at least a year or 2 and you know you like vr, I feel like the upgrade has way more pros than cons. The quest 3 is arguably one of the best vr headsets out there and probably the best consumer headset on the market. It just sucks practically no one knows about it thanks to relatively poor advertising.
Quest 3 is not just the best device overall in vr, I'll say in tech in general, even if you buy like 10 devices that cost $10,000 plus dollars. It wouldn't even be able to give the potential that the Quest can do other than added actual physical stuff in your house or room. I'm extremely picky when it comes to products that only pc and VR is the way to go
should i get the quest 3 if i already have the quest 2 i was planning to give it to my brother and he’s giving me one of his consoles that way we can play together is it worth the buy?
I personally got the quest 3 and gave the quest 2 to a friend so we could play together and it was the best decision I made. Do it if you have the cash
The quest 2 made my eyes hurt and gave me a headache if I stayed in it over 30 minutes. I watched an entire movie on the quest 3 no headache my eyesight is back like it use to . I was struggling to read small text I even had trouble seeing text on my phone and reading RUclips comments. 3 weeks after using the quest 3 I noticed my eyesight was back😊
You didn't compare both with the link cable.....so was disappointed as I never use the quest on its own as the games are basic. I always use my PC link
I’m thinking of buying a vr headset and I just want to ask one question: Say you have never done ve before or you’ve only done it once. What headset should you go with if you’re inexperienced?
No no no, they are not waffle lenses... the name comes from the shape of pancakes (being almost flat), they look nothing at all like waffles. The lenses are the main reason battery time is half - even with effeciency gains of the new snapdragon, the double-pass through the lenses, which usese polarisation to direct the light back and forth (how they work is that reflecting back through lens and back twice allows a more shallow lens curvature for the same optical power), causes ~ 75% loss of light, so to get the same lumiance as Meta 2, the power in the display has to increase. The polarising optics are also responsible for the very reduced eyebox - why it has to be adjustable IPD vs Meta 2. The pros and cons for smaller form factor - the physics behind this has been known for years, just a waiting game for who has the money to risk releasing a product with lower battery life and lower IPD. Interesting review, as a non-gamer I'm probably safe getting a Quest 2.
I bought the kiwi headstrap for the quest 2, and I feel its even worse than the original straps. I mean they hurt my face just under the eyes when you tight them. Does anyone have the same problem? Thx
I found I needed to play with the setup of the headset itself when that happened - just needed to tilt it up a degree or two to take the weight off my nose. Fine line between taking the weight off, and letting too much light in, though ;)
best thing to do tbh is to sell things around the house that people dont use anymore. also when you turn 15 you can get a workers permit to get a job. good luck bro
@@MylesKyochi I know, I felt the same way as a kid. But honestly looking back, I wish I hung out with friends more and left the house. Just wait until you get a car.
Hey. I'm just saying here that I have guest 2 and I'm happy with it. I bought it for less than 360€, if I remember. Nothing else to say and good things you said
if you are already making a video about comparing Q2 and Q3, at least answer the question in one video. This is not a 5 part tiktok. don't waste people's time. Solid apart from the ending.
I think anyone who got a quest 2 over a 3 might need to get tested for a mental illness. Its better in any way so obviously its better, but it is worth the price.
not everyone lives in the USA where everything is cheap, in my country the quest 2 has the price equivalent of the quest 3 lol, so thats why i picked 2 over 3 because price and i would mostly play pcvr games and i don't care about mvr
Wtf is this economy bullshit. I live in Chile and our salary is way worse than the US and somehow, a QUEST 2 goes for 450-600USD normal price. And you are telling me that you find 500USD expensive for the QUEST 3? If you find it expensive imagine how it is for us. I have been eyeing a Quest for years and I can never feel safe knowing that the next year they will probably announce a new one which is way better than the previous, life sucks
I was originally going to get the Q3 as my first VR headset when it was announced but then I also wanted to play PCVR, so what I did was to get a used Q2 and then upgraded to BOBOVR strap and then use what remains of my intended budget and added a little bit more to get a decent PC, and I am happy with my purchase... playing the large library for my Q2 and enjoying smooth PCVR gaming on it has been the greatest decision ever.

thats really smart of you. actually so genius im gonna pin this so everyone can see
I prefer Q2's black and white camera.
Q3 is worth jt for the lenses alone
depends on what you're coming from@@booshting3520
Pcvr with Fennell lenses your missing out pancake lenses are just amazing in comparison
Who'd have thought that the newer headset with better tech would be more expensive than the old version? Blows my mind 🤯🤯

I'm extremely picky when it comes to products that only pc and VR is the way to go
The thing i want to know is if meta comes up with a new headset could i trade the quest three in for an upgrade
just sell it then
Im getting a quest 2 is it good?
Yeah, its still good and cheap
should i get the quest 3 if i already have the quest 2 i was planning to give it to my brother and he’s giving me one of his consoles that way we can play together is it worth the buy?
I personally got the quest 3 and gave the quest 2 to a friend so we could play together and it was the best decision I made. Do it if you have the cash
What games can be played together on separate headsets?
i watch this guy for my quest 2 tips new subscriber
thanks bro
welcome@@kaysarinc
The quest 2 made my eyes hurt and gave me a headache if I stayed in it over 30 minutes. I watched an entire movie on the quest 3 no headache my eyesight is back like it use to . I was struggling to read small text I even had trouble seeing text on my phone and reading RUclips comments. 3 weeks after using the quest 3 I noticed my eyesight was back😊
Quick update regarding the price for anyone watching in 2024 the quest 3 is more affordable now.
Loving the quest 3 🎉🎉🎉🎉
its a great headset
Thank you for this video I kept asking my daughter what the difference was and she was unable to explain in detail lol so on that Quest 3 it is!!
Unleashed music! Big w (both video and music choice) !
I have a father, so I asked if I can split it. It's $250 for the both of us, so I'm buying it for the Quest 2 price, which I see as worth it.
You didn't compare both with the link cable.....so was disappointed as I never use the quest on its own as the games are basic. I always use my PC link
my quest 2 battery is dying and im considering the new version, it looks like the green aliens from toy story
LOL I bought the quest 3 not knowing all the bad stuff about it i Was just excited because it was my first V. R. Ever. Lmao
I’m thinking of buying a vr headset and I just want to ask one question:
Say you have never done ve before or you’ve only done it once. What headset should you go with if you’re inexperienced?
Get the cheaper option, you can always get a better headset down the line. Quest 1-2 are both great. I'd personally recommend the quest 2.
Meta Quest 3 definitely if you can afford it. If not Meta Quest 2. Meta is way ahead of most everyone else in VR/mixed reality.
Quest 3 has way better lenses as well as a better chip, it's worth it.
No no no, they are not waffle lenses... the name comes from the shape of pancakes (being almost flat), they look nothing at all like waffles. The lenses are the main reason battery time is half - even with effeciency gains of the new snapdragon, the double-pass through the lenses, which usese polarisation to direct the light back and forth (how they work is that reflecting back through lens and back twice allows a more shallow lens curvature for the same optical power), causes ~ 75% loss of light, so to get the same lumiance as Meta 2, the power in the display has to increase. The polarising optics are also responsible for the very reduced eyebox - why it has to be adjustable IPD vs Meta 2. The pros and cons for smaller form factor - the physics behind this has been known for years, just a waiting game for who has the money to risk releasing a product with lower battery life and lower IPD. Interesting review, as a non-gamer I'm probably safe getting a Quest 2.
I bought the kiwi headstrap for the quest 2, and I feel its even worse than the original straps. I mean they hurt my face just under the eyes when you tight them. Does anyone have the same problem? Thx
I found I needed to play with the setup of the headset itself when that happened - just needed to tilt it up a degree or two to take the weight off my nose. Fine line between taking the weight off, and letting too much light in, though ;)
Tbh I kinda prefer the quest 2 controllers cause If I try quest 3 controllers then they will feel really weird to me
Q3 has 4 speakers, Quest 2 has 2 speakers, take a closer look man lol...
Dang this all sound so cool I’m 14 what’s the best way for me to get a lot money for this?I wanna experience the vr/ar(ar is optional) reality
best thing to do tbh is to sell things around the house that people dont use anymore. also when you turn 15 you can get a workers permit to get a job. good luck bro
Wait until your 16. You should experience more life stuff before you jump into technology and vr
@@kaysarinc alr thx
@@uraveragewiteguy alr but I like vr is cause it feels like you in. A game an u can do stuff
U can’t do irl
@@MylesKyochi I know, I felt the same way as a kid. But honestly looking back, I wish I hung out with friends more and left the house. Just wait until you get a car.
Just so you know, it's easier to buy quest 2 accessories from Ali express than Amazon ☠️
I haven't watched the vid yet but idk what is better with the quest 2 than 3, hopefully I find out
And the guy who edited this video gets a point
Me getting 3 hours on quest 3: WHAT DA HELL
Hey. I'm just saying here that I have guest 2 and I'm happy with it. I bought it for less than 360€, if I remember. Nothing else to say and good things you said
Thanks
Brah I don’t care about games, I just want it for my workflow productivity improvements.
2:31 bluetooth is also ancient
got a quest 2 really want to upgrade to the 3 but €550 is too much
if you are already making a video about comparing Q2 and Q3, at least answer the question in one video. This is not a 5 part tiktok. don't waste people's time. Solid apart from the ending.
U forgot resolution
Happy new year
happy new year to you too
...made from plastic, thank the lord they didn't made it out of wood.
I got to wait another year for Christmas again just to ask for a VR
7:20 "my next vid will be about a better headset" (lie)
Yeah no, the quest 3 is almost twice the price of the quest 2 and it doesn't really sound like I'd get that much more since I use it with a pc.
You can by a quest 3 used for almost 100$ less
I love the style of this video, and great information. You answered all the right questions!
Can anyone understand this guy talk? He talks fast and sounds slow.
last year i bought the quest 2 for 400 dollars on amazon😭😭😭
3:33 umm actually don’t use mixed reality🤓👆
The real answer is, you should not buy either. Wait for a decent compa y to make one.
I think anyone who got a quest 2 over a 3 might need to get tested for a mental illness. Its better in any way so obviously its better, but it is worth the price.
no
not everyone lives in the USA where everything is cheap, in my country the quest 2 has the price equivalent of the quest 3 lol, so thats why i picked 2 over 3 because price and i would mostly play pcvr games and i don't care about mvr
@@djgplays I don't live in the US, also things are so stupidly expensive in the US anyways.
I’m still waiting for that next video Kaysar
Headphone jacks are 1000X better then the compressed latency crap that is bluetooth. You just don't know any better.
I'm getting a meta Quest 2 because I think the other headsets all just to overpriced so I'm going with Quest 2 because I've never had a vr
i just got quest 2 for christmas😢
Wtf is this economy bullshit. I live in Chile and our salary is way worse than the US and somehow, a QUEST 2 goes for 450-600USD normal price. And you are telling me that you find 500USD expensive for the QUEST 3? If you find it expensive imagine how it is for us. I have been eyeing a Quest for years and I can never feel safe knowing that the next year they will probably announce a new one which is way better than the previous, life sucks
1:10 its fresnel
The quest 3 looks more like quest 2.5
The quest two is still good #respectthequesttwo
