No-one talking about how Dad jumped on the sim and dove through a bridge in a fighter jet like a G 😂 good man
Hey Cameron! Thank you so much for the comment and I'm grinning here! I completely agree and was watching with amusing when my Dad did this 😃! Fun fact and to add some context, my Dad was later good friends with Spike Jones, the Squadron CO (Commanding Officer) of the pilot who flew a real Hunter from 1sqn, unauthorised, through the middle of Tower Bridge in 1968 (the pilot was Flt Lt Alan Pollock)
Just ordered mine after watching your review! Great video! I’ve never had a VR set before, but watching your dad play Flight Simulator was the selling point for me. Thank you!
i just got mine last month i HIGHLY recommend the bobovr S3 pro strap / battery system.
the strapnthat comes with the quest 3 is pretty bad
btw i am amso brand new to vr
enjoy! 😁
Deep Value, thank you so much for the kind words and for letting me know 🙂! I will let my Dad know as he will be delighted to hear this. The Quest 3 is an outstanding headset and I'm sure you will enjoy as much as we do!
@@Klovar thank you so much for the comment and for head strap recommendation. The BOBOVR S3 Pro Super Strap looks great and I'll have a look into it 🙂.
So does this quest 3 cast to chromecast with latest version? And if it does. Does the chromecast matter if it was chromecast was HD or 4k version?
Great video! 👏
Thank you.
Hi 99PrObZ, thank you so much 🙂!
Hey, love the review, very interesting and informative, I will use this information to influence my overall idea of the meta quest, thank you
Hey Alessandro, thank you so much for the comment and kind words it is very much appreciated 🙂. If you are looking for, or considering getting a VR (and/or Mixed reality) headset, then it's excellent!
Just got mine today! Gotta say it’s an absolute blast to play with. Anyway great review!
I wish I could get one but my mum is still a bit shaky on the price 😢
Hi Iron, thanks so much for commenting and for the kind words, its appreciated 🙂! I agree it is a lot of fun!
@@Galaxian. I empathise [with you] and understand how your Mum feels. It is a lot of money.
I own a Quest 3 already so my question is about the VR prescription, since you had some made for your dad. I am farsighted, meaning I can see only up close really up close, I don’t seem to have a problem using the headset without glasses but I wonder if I’m missing a clearer picture. Would I need to get prescription lenses for it? My current prescription is bifocal so my glasses allow me to see far, because that is what I need, and it has a reading prescription for up close so that I don’t have to take them off when reading or seeing something up close. I wonder if I would benefit from getting prescription lenses for VR or not??? Would I need a bifocal prescription or just the far sighted prescription? Your thoughts based on maybe what you got your dad?
Thanks! I had a Question 2 and upgraded to the 3 best decision ever! And with content and games getting larger go for the bigger memory one-you won’t regret it.
Hi Max, thanks for the comment and question 🙂! I completely agree the Quest 3 is excellent and as you say with content increasing it makes sense to go for the larger storage option if you plan to play or use it for many different games/apps. Regarding your prescription question the best thing to do would be contact VR Optician directly using the form here: support.vroptician.com/contact from my experience their response times have been excellent so hopefully they can help answer your question(s) soon.
I just bought the v3 model, thanks for the info on the lenses as I will probably need them. cheers
Hi Popcorn, thanks so much for the comment 🙂! With regard to the lenses, they are excellent as they have made a notable improvement for my Dad. You don't have to, but if you haven't had your eyes checked for a while then it would be worth considering getting an updated prescription from your chosen optician to make sure any lens order you make is accurate.
@@james_newall yes true I got my eyes checked about a year ago and I am going to get the results sent to me. I will see how the quest 3 3 goes but I am pretty sure I will need Lenses fitted. thanks for getting back to me.
@@popcornshiner3937 You're welcome. Also, if you do decide to get some lenses you can now get 5% off a VROptician order using this link: vroptician.com/?coupon=JamesNewall
@@james_newall Thanks for the reply, yes I have seen that site and that was all I needed to make my desigion to get the quest 3
I have the meta quest 3 here in Australia its great I play car racing games like automobilista 2 on the headset highly recommended it.
Hi Colin, I'm so glad you're enjoying it and I completely agree! 🙂
@@james_newall thanks James for your response.
Should we wait for quest 3 lite later this year. I only have $50 a month to save
I got my meta quest 3 about a week or two ago and I suggest if you can’t afford the 593$ price tag definitely wait for the meta quest 3s or also know as the lite. It will not only be cheaper at 200-300$ but will come at some disadvantages like not having the pancake lens that are a superior upgrade from the Fresno lens that the quest 3 has. But it will come with the processing chip that the quest 3 has so you will have the power of a quest 3 and other stuff that goes more into detail so it’s a really all up to your personal preference imo definitely look more into it I’ve done a lot of research myself after buying the quest 3 cause I didn’t realize how indept all of this really is. But if you can afford the quest 3 right now go for it I say!! But if you can definitely wait till either the lite comes out or the quest 3 is on discount!!! 😁 hmu if you got any questions love to give some advice on the knowledge I have atm and what I’ve been learning
You always have a smile in your face :)
haha thanks Ramy 😃 that's very kind! A lot of things to smile about I guess 😃!
You need to get quest games optimizer. Increases render rez of games while keeping fps. Its awesome. Like getting quest 4
I had the original HTC Vive. It was great (at least at the time) but after 20-30 minutes I felt awful. I was nauseous to the point of almost hurling, and I ended up with a migraine, having to spend the rest of the day laid down with my eyes closed. I don't know if that's because I was wearing glasses under there or had the settings wrong... But I haven't used it again or bought another set since then.
Has anyone had a similar experience with older models that they don't find with newer headsets?
Hi Some Random, thanks for the comment and I'm sorry to read this. I empathise as I had a similar experience with the Meta Quest 2 one evening after an intensive gaming session... with the effects lasting a few hours. Is it because you wear glasses? Maybe, but I doubt it’s the sole reason. I don't know the HTC Vive but some users mentioned a similar experience using the Quest 2 where you need to look through the centre of the lenses to get it exactly focussed. The pancake lenses in the Quest 3 removes this problem as they have uniform edge to edge clarity, so you no longer need to look through the centre of the lenses - I breifly talk about this here 1:21. The purpose made lenses from VR Optician have helped my Dad a lot and I have added a link to their website in the description of the video above. Will both these things resolve the issue? Unfortunately, I don’t know but if you do descide to buy one I sincerely hope they do.

I hope you got him a nicer headstrap like a kiwi or bobo if you prefer a halo style strap. My kiwi fixes strain 100% you also have to replace that garbage facial interface
Hey Priscilla, thanks for the comment and suggestion. I few people have suggested a new/different strap so I will probably have a look into a different one sometime soon.
The battery life is not 2-3 hours at all my headset only last 45 mins to 1 hour max so I don't know where got that one from bro
you definitely have 120hz on
I've been thoroughly enjoying using the new Meta Quest 3! But what about you? Do you own a Quest 3 or are you thinking about getting one? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below 😃!
Getting one soon so excited 😊😊
@@hedgecraftTheReal fantastic 😃!! Well I hope you enjoy it HedgeCraft and thanks so much for the comment 🙂!
Hi there, thinking of pulling the trigger on this. I teach design so would there be any immersive cad software out there?
😊also is it worth getting just the 128gb over the 512?
Buy it
Well that pretty much sum's it up 🙂. I've added links to where you can buy the Meta Quest 3 in the description.
Quick answer, yes
I agree 🙂
How do I add prescription
Hi Golden, in the description of the video I have added a link to VR Optician's website. With the website open select the VR headset you own where you can then enter your prescription details.
Hi Golden, in case you haven't ordered some lenses from VROptician yet you can now get 5% off using this link, which will also allow you to enter your prescription details: vroptician.com/prescription-lens-inserts/meta-quest3/?coupon=JamesNewall
You can order new facial interfaces and change them out to feel better.
Hi Horror, thanks for the comment 🙂. I think this is one of those things which borders on a 'must have' so I might have a look into one at some point.
People need to emphasize more that some people find it to be greater when connected to a PC the native games for the quest just aren't that good right now
The ones I played are good just not all of them are great.
Zenni persctiption lenses for Quest 3 are $20 cheaper 😁 than the brand you got 💪
Hi Klovar, thanks for the suggestion. Naturally, I can only speak about our experience with VR Optician. Not only are the lenses we received excellent but their customer service has been outstanding too! Whilst filling out my Dad's prescription on their website I made a mistake reading the optician's form, and only noticed my mistake a short time later. In haste I emailed VR Optician letting them know, and they not only got back to me quickly saying they have corrected the form but the lenses arrived the next day from Germany.
Meta is so good
I am impressed with the device 🙂
Daft Punk fans can like here🤘
haha I love it, thanks Maze 😂!! It's definitely got a Daft Punk look to it 😃!
