We need to scream the demand for comfort from the rooftops! I've been on the Pro and I'm still perfectly happy with it. I don't care how much they upgrade the visuals, if I can't stand wearing it for more than 30 minutes then forget it. Total dealbreaker.
Fresnel, pronounced "freh-nel." And the IPD adjustment is physically controlled on all versions of the Quest. The Q3 just has a smooth dial instead of three hard stop positions.
@JohnnyNoPockets They were already making a loss and don't expect to make profit until 2030, so at this point it was already about building a user base at a loss whilst finding out what an average customer is willing to pay. However, now users know they're willing to drop the price a year after launch, they'll have fewer early adopters, or, will always have to sell at this more affordable lower price point. Fewer early adopters means less interest in new tech from developers. Unless of course, meta buy them all up, which sucks for the end user. N.B. not sure why you felt the need to be a snarky little dick about it.
That's me. Planning on a Q3 for the holidays, not to replace my PCVR HMD, but for the standalone stuff, and for some in-home cross-platform multiplayer for the games that support that (Walkabout Mini Golf, Demeo, etc.). Hoping there'll be a good game bundled with it around the holidays.
As someone who started with and still has an Oculus Rift S, the Quest 3 S will likely be my next headset. I’m ok with 300 and less storage as I don’t use VR more than a handful of times each month. Thanks for the coverage Wolf!
I watch you Wolf because I have the Quest 2, no extra comfort bought. Every time I step into VR, it breaks my head and my stomach. I have been trying to play the game “Into the radius” for over six months now, I haven’t even broke out of training!! 😢 You’re Great at what you do! ❤❤❤
Ayyy I've been to that campus near SF, nearly a year ago. Went their on a school field trip, my Computer Science teacher set it up because he knows someone there. I frickin loved it there. The campus is actually really inviting.
You the man, Jeff! Nice to put a face to the awesome vids so we can appreciate the hard work you do. Thanks for sharing, Wolf. Hard to pass up on the Quest 3 for only $100 more though! Great deal for $500.
Tbh my first try at vr gaming was the original psvr ive not tried any others but the psvr definitely got me hooked and most certainly will buy another standalone vr device
@@Stormshadow612-n8g I wasn’t talking about the 3s,he said the Quest 3 with more memory(I believe it’s 512gb,if I remember correctly) will now sell for $500.I bought my Quest 3 with 128gb for $500 a few months ago. The 128gb Quest 3 will now be $400 and the new Quest 3s with the fresnel lenses will be $300.I definitely wouldn’t have waited for the 3s with fresnel lenses 😂.I have no interest in the 3s but I’m glad Meta made it.hopefully it will sell good and developers will leave the Quest 2 in the past.I want to see them push Quest 3 to its limits and that is less likely to happen when devs are focused on catering to the massive player base of the Quest 2.hopefully the 3s will push Quest 2 owners to upgrade.it’s a lot easier for people to come up with $300 than it is for them to come up with $500.that’s the only thing that makes me excited about the release of Quest 3s,I will never own one myself
Well if you are too broke to get a VR2 (hands down the best VR now you can use it on PC too) for 399 and an adapter for your PC or you don't have a PC or you don't have a ps5 and VR2. You probably should not get into VR anyway. Because the quests look like cartoon graphics. The VR2 looks real. And now Hitman is coming to VR2 on ps5, it will look more real than it ever has. Be less buggy, too, because they will now fix the Hitman bugs. That's unfortunate, though. I liked seeing guys you were choking fly in the air. Cheap VRs are cheap VRs. It's not virtual reality. It's virtual cartoons. But some people might be into that. If you want the be graphics. Get the ps vr2 with adapter with PC. That real looking VR.
This will sell. The q3 is great and better than the q2 in every way. But its a huge prive jump for lenses. great entry setup or even upgrade from q2.q3 is like an enthusiast set.
diving deep into theories here but they probably realized that a proper Q4 will be significantly more expensive than the Q3 (something like $700, I guess) but they also know that a lot of people wont pay that. So they try to find out whether people also accept a stripped down version if it has a lower price. So you could say its a re-introduction of the QuestPro-Line but instead of putting a high end version on top of the price list, they introduce it from the bottom by improving the "standard version" and offering a cheaper alternative. Sounds like a smart marketing strategy to me but it's just a theory A GAME THEORY
I have a Quest 2 and a Gaming PC and play almost only PCVR with my Quest 2 because stand-alone graphics are less than standard for me, and it wouldn't make any sense to upgrade from a Quest 2 to Quest 3 if I'm mostly playing PCVR games. That upgrade would only be beneficial to those love stand-alone games. For me, I'd rather wait for a Quest 4 as that would be a more worthy upgrade for me. For Quest 2 users who are thinking of upgrading to a 3S, why would you pay hundreds of dollars to get the same resolution and lenses? That wouldn't even make sense. Why not just add a hundred dollars and get a Quest 3 which has better lenses than the 3S? I think the 3S only makes sense for people that are new to VR.
So it's not just the HTC Vive XR Elite that was considered uncomfortable. Even Meta can't make the physical form factor comfortable within their entry-level price.
I have a few questions. Does the Quest 3S have enough space to allow for glasses (and is it comfortable with them)? And how does this stack up against the Oculus Quest (because that's what I own right now)?
It will have a spacer for glasses you can use that comes with it. Also, do you mean the original quest? If so, then yes it will be an upgrade from that.
Another thing the Quest 3 does? It gives game devs an easier ride since they're now writing for just one machine. The Quest 2 has officially left the chat-probably hanging around for a couple more years with some security updates before it's all 'adios, amigo!
I'm gonna sell the quest 2 for $100 so for $200 I'll upgrade to the 3s but the quest 3 would be $400 to upgrade so that's an easy one quest 2 always look alright just needed a power boost
My question on the audio that comes through the C charging port if your using headphones with an adapter do you know if you can use a splitter to charge and use headphones?
Seems like Facebook is shooting itself in the foot every other headset. They can take the hit though, and maybe adopting Microsoft strategy of every other OS being good, and Evey other OS being experimental and a learning experience. Also seems they are experimenting with prices vs features, so next year will be a better headset at whatever price they figure is good, HDD size, etc.
Thats the unfortunate truth of tech, it's always getting better, and you can only produce so many makes and models with available resources, and can only store oh so many units to be bought. Especially a VR headset, which is a low traffic item that doesn't have that many buyers.
OK, I bet it’s gonna do the same thing as a meta-quest 3 The only difference is it looks ugly as hell it looks like if iPhone would make a VR like it looks like if Apple would make a VR it looks like that.
I read and compared about the 3s last month, its shyt compared to regular Quest 3 .. Its just a little bump up from Quest 2 .. even the tech junkies say its literal junk, dont sugar coat it WOLF, which is what you are doing .. Just call it Shyt ..
I love when we get to see Wolf’s actual face…makes up for him uploading late today 😂
I love the irl videos. It's so cool to actually see him when he's talking, and to put a face on the legend.
Woah you look so much cooler than i thought

Seeing you and GT together is wholesome
Fresnel, pronounced "freh-nel." And the IPD adjustment is physically controlled on all versions of the Quest. The Q3 just has a smooth dial instead of three hard stop positions.
the fact the quest 3 512 gb version is the only 500 bucks is a great decision on meta's part!
AAAAH it's great but also horrible for anyone who got the 128 at 500$ and now has to live without the extra space
It sucks. They should have done it off the bat.

Bro looks like an evil scientist
Puss in Boots the last wish is so good! I'm so glad you pointed that out!
I honestly appreciate the price drop on the 512gb 3 more than the introduction of the 3S. I'd rather uprage my 2 to that instead.
That's me. Planning on a Q3 for the holidays, not to replace my PCVR HMD, but for the standalone stuff, and for some in-home cross-platform multiplayer for the games that support that (Walkabout Mini Golf, Demeo, etc.). Hoping there'll be a good game bundled with it around the holidays.
I just bought a quest 3 a week or 2 ago for like 650...now they wanna drop the price...smh
I love seeing his face he's really cute looking

love your video Benn watching your videos for 5 years now of more I don’t know but keep making your videos.

But now I'm saving for the 3s
What kind of vr headset do you have right now?

0:08 NAYSY, i recognise that purple hair anywhere,
Imagine this Quest 3.5 with 90Hz OLED with pancake lenses and display port only, no battery no snapdragon. Extra mile would be eye tracking.
At price of 799
Thanks for explaining quz now i know with what headset i should start
I'm glad people have a cheaper headset available but I wish they'd release a premium version of the 3.
He’s talking about feeling left out having the quest 2 and I have the Quest 1 still
I'm really glad we get a valid vr headset user commenting on products instead of some cgi trailers and paid actors.
I'm going to get the quest3S as my first headset
5:41 Dude I have been outta shape😅
I ve heard "hello wolf pack" so many times watching your gaming videos, but never have I seen your face 😅...
The "hide the corps" series ! LMFAO!
Wow, A Wolf in RL! (real life). Although, I'm a little disappointed that he's not an actual wolf, like the little guy in the outro. 🤣
Hooray for the peice drops my birthday is in a week
Damn,I should’ve waited a few months before buying my Quest 3.could’ve got the one with more memory for the same price
It doesn’t have pancake lenses. It’s garbage

I think it's also mostly so they can drop support for the Q2 over the next year or two.
Ngl, might go for the 3S if I decide to upgrade from the original Rift. Good price. :)
When this headset releases I'm upgrading to it
Hi wolf!
Wooooo tbh best face reveal! You look so cool!! I enjoy your videos!!
Yk he’s already face revealed
Remember when you could tweak the graphics on quest 2? Could you do the same on the 3s?

Say it with me... Fresnel = fruh · nel
(the 's' is silent)
Think ill keep my quest 3
So it's not just the HTC Vive XR Elite that was considered uncomfortable. Even Meta can't make the physical form factor comfortable within their entry-level price.
I know I'm a VR nerd when I realize that I actually know over 50% of the VR youtubers you can see in the video.
I have a rift s. Do you think that this is a significant upgrade to that?
Absolutely.
Yes
Standalone vs PC, but look at pixels per degree to get a sense of graphic quality. 😉
Well I know what I’m asking for christmas
I have a few questions. Does the Quest 3S have enough space to allow for glasses (and is it comfortable with them)? And how does this stack up against the Oculus Quest (because that's what I own right now)?
It will have a spacer for glasses you can use that comes with it. Also, do you mean the original quest? If so, then yes it will be an upgrade from that.
I played Jurassic World Aftermath again, still hate the dilo part after all these years.
do you think connect 25 will be quest 4 / quest pro 2
Another thing the Quest 3 does? It gives game devs an easier ride since they're now writing for just one machine. The Quest 2 has officially left the chat-probably hanging around for a couple more years with some security updates before it's all 'adios, amigo!
I want to get into vr, but don’t have the time.
Dude that’s the same price as like a good lego set
If anly played the Qwest 2 and I think today ill play a psvr
Do more medieval dynasty
I'm gonna sell the quest 2 for $100 so for $200 I'll upgrade to the 3s but the quest 3 would be $400 to upgrade so that's an easy one quest 2 always look alright just needed a power boost
I never seen your face!!! Omg!
This is to get more ppl in vr. Not made for you. You're an elite user
Wait is this his first face reveal or did i miss a face reveal vid
I want a quest pro 2...
Uhhh wolf you said it's the best valve headset
Wolf just leaked the quest 4
Yes, finally face repair
My question on the audio that comes through the C charging port if your using headphones with an adapter do you know if you can use a splitter to charge and use headphones?
wasn't the base quest 3 already a big value?
Seems like Facebook is shooting itself in the foot every other headset. They can take the hit though, and maybe adopting Microsoft strategy of every other OS being good, and Evey other OS being experimental and a learning experience. Also seems they are experimenting with prices vs features, so next year will be a better headset at whatever price they figure is good, HDD size, etc.
Why are you saying that it's no surprise the 3s was going to be a power boost and new base line for all quest
Is it time to upgrade my og quest lol - i might just spend 500 on a quest 3
I saw naysy
i want a good cheaper headset with 100 IPD, not 70
I think discontinuing the 128GB Quest 3 and reducing the 512GB Quest 3's price to what the 128GB model was, is a bit of a rip-off
Thats the unfortunate truth of tech, it's always getting better, and you can only produce so many makes and models with available resources, and can only store oh so many units to be bought. Especially a VR headset, which is a low traffic item that doesn't have that many buyers.

Can you play deism
