My family got the quest 2 for Christmas as a replacement for my family's Vive headset. I don't think my family is getting a new one until it's broken forever
I never have problems with the strap all I do to make it not hurt is to pull my hair out of the headset so it’s not putting pressure on my head you could try if you want to see if it works for you just take the front of your hair out of the headsets and also human fall flat is coming out for Vr
Down side is the 3 IPD settings, the main reason I have never gotten into Quest is the limited max IPD setting, as I have an IPD of 75mm, extreme I know, and this rules out a lot of headsets. My current headsets are the Pimax 8KX and the PSVR2 (PS5 and PC use), both are suitable for my massive IPD.
Unpopular opinion: I don't necessarily want lighter controllers. Like, if I'm throwing bananas in Gorilla Tag, I want it to feel like there's actually something in my hand.
but if i'm playing beat saber, i dont want to feel sluggish. you can add stuff to make a controller heavier, but you can't remove stuff to make it lighter
@@johndoe-yw7eb for sure, but it's more fun to play beat saber the lighter it is. i do agree that there should be *some* weight, but i do think lighter is better, generally
You got to show the Quest 3S demostration stuff your Beat Saber skills. You'll be giving this new headset a go in your home soon! Banana wearing Quest 3S🍌
Just love hearing all about the new Meta Quest 3s. With the price reduction of the Quest 3 though, I think thats the model to buy. Thanks Naysy for sharing this information. I ate another banana, by the way. Love your content. 😊
Considering resolution staying the same i dont know what big of an impact it will have. In the climb game it will have less optimizations necessary meaning the image will be clearer, but outside of that i dont see what will improve. If it has the same processor, but lower resolution then in theory it should give higher FPS, but if quest 2 already had 120 fps then i dont see how we would get any better FPS. Feels like its not that big of an upgrade in practice.
@@Kamtar34 Most people get quest for beat saber and a few random games. I use it primarily for youtube which ia best on quest 3 right now. Its not worth it as an upgrade for quest 2, it will just be a bit better for a newcomer. Only upgrade i see is better mixed reality and current games running on higher settings and being able to run more modern games easily. It also came with the dowbgrade of no headphone jack. Overall the upgrades feel minor cuz of how limited the system is already.
Two things, one, the Quest 2 didn't always reach 120fps, in fact it barely did. Two, the Quest 2's resolution is downgraded to ensure a smooth gameplay, you can test that via SideQuest, so perhaps the Quest 3S's quality will still look clearer.
@@breeseburger You only made one point cuz the second one i think i mentioned the second point in my original post. It mainly gets the upgrade of using the less limited versions of the game. I know in the climb game on quest 3 without the limitations the 3D houses start looking so clearly rendered that the skybox image looks pixelated in comparison and starts looking out of place. On quest 2 the skybox looks like an actual part of the backgroubd telling me it was designed for quest 2 specs.
@zukodude487987 the quest 2 was 72hz most of the time and the native games looked and ran like ass. The quest 3S will actually make use of the hardware by achieving 90hz in most titles, and the level of detail in games will actually come closer to pcvr at a mix of medium/low settings. To think this isn't a decent upgrade for the ones who don't want to spend on a standard Quest 3 is just foolish.
@@yuanchang2306 I don't expect a big improvement with the battery life. The colour passthrough and the new processor are both going to be more power hungry.
Fresnel lenses, rigid IPD, no headphone jack, and no three charging prongs on the bottom are just 4 reasons I would rather save up for the much better Quest 3. If the point is to introduce new people to VR why not just give them the best lenses to enjoy this new experience? Great review overall Naysy!
cost. I expect the quest3 is the cheapest they can sell a headset with pancake lenses. im sure if they could sell a headset at 299 with dual pancake lenses they would. quest 3s only has a single panel which is much cheaper than dual micro lcd panels
It cost nearly twice as much, only VR enthusiasts want to spend that much even if the lenses and screen are a lot better, also imo 300$ makes compulsive purchases motivated by a single game possible, and Batman might be that kind of game
@@Mfire33 Yeah, I understand about the cost. I would avoid $3500 for the AVP; but for an extra $100-200 you will get the best VR experience and a Batman game
Their targeted audience is people who've never considered getting into VR / are reluctant to spend 500$+ on it. They would still be impressed by the experience even if it is not the best out there

On the normal Quest 3, it takes at least 2 - 3 restarts on the headset to connect them. I do think it’ll be the exact same thing with the Quest 3S, but who knows?
i don't feel like it's a worthwile upgrade if you have a quest 2, especially if you use it mainly to play pc vr and sometimes re4 vr (shame it's not on steam)
One day, when the Meta PC Software actually becomes reliable, I'll be able to recommend this headset, for now the only thing keeping it viable is Steam Link
@ickilla exactly. It's the VR game console thats cheap and self contained for the masses. PCVR is cool, but the bar to entry is insanely high and thats if you want the best VR possible. quest 3 is practically PCVR low settings
@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 heck not even low settings anymore I play PCVR and quest 2,3 I own all three and to be honest some quest 3 games look much closer to medium settings on PCVR it's came a long way
It's got a low quality LCD panel, like the Quest 2. So I wouldn't expect much if I were you. The Quest 1 was better for movie watching because it was OLED.
I have a question I've been wondering for a while will be at saber come to switch you can play docked mode where you can move your camera using the joystick and swing with the joycons or you could play with the VR set
@@valentds not OLeD? I want OLED like my Psv2 Bro you don't know how amazing OSVR2 feels like I literally forgets about the real world when I dropped into a VR world8
@dtz1000 yep, as u say, I'm gonna have to wait like 20 years until someone gives OLED a chance in the VR industry PSVR2 until then :( This thing lacks goodies. That's the only issue (plus kind of uncomfortable 😐 after 1 hour of continuous use)
ummm. October is next month. If you are talking about how quick it in launching its been in development for quite a while so they could just release it. They couldve released it with no warning tomorrow but sadly they need units.
What do you mean? that's always been the case. They're selling you VR technology for practically nothing. They're allowed to cut some corners. Could be worse. They could've made that strap non-removable.
I use a pico4 at the moment for PCVR, would you recommend this over that? i have been considering the 3 but cant justify a £500 purchase for slightly better looking beatsaber fun
I don't think I would like to do without the pancake lens.

Bigger battery and lower resolution, it must have longer power life.
The battery is smaller than Quest 3.
@dtz1000 so? High resolution takes a huge amount of processing time. Quest3 had worse battery life than Quest2.
Which you will still probably find isn't nearly good enough. You will still be running tethered or using a third party battery pack.
It's about 30 minutes longer
Hmm glad I waited with the quest 3, I will be getting it when the price dropped
I love my boho mini head strap for the quest 3 with batteries, it even fits in the official meta case
Holy shit I know EXACTLY what parts of Firestarter you are playing just by looking at your flailing arms
Same 😂
Wish mainstream headsets focused more on FOV. We've been in the same place for years now without improvement.
Even though I own the new bobo, I am glad I have been balding since 24, makes the headstrap more comfortable

Doubt I'll upgrade this gen. Even the 3 (non s) seems a bit lackluster for the price when I've got a 2.
If you use a 3 for a while and put on a quest 2 it looks like $h*t. But if you just stick with a 2 you won't know the difference.
