I was just doing research on the Meta Quest 3 for someone else when I found your video. You have a very clear and to the point approach that kept me glued to the screen and hanging on your every word. All my questions were answered without you beating around the bush and you kept a good informative pace that was easy to follow. I was sold by the time you got to speaking on the hardware. Now I want to get one of these for myself! I immediately subbed and look forward to watching more of your stuff! Excellent presentation and the way tech videos should be. I have only one complaint - I am from Chicago and I didn't like that Detroit shirt! Ha!
Got my 3s yesterday. My very first VR headset and I am blown away with the experience. First encounters and Space Pirate trainer DX....Amazing! I felt as a kid playing Duck Hunt on the NES or playing T2 Arcade back on the SNES. I just played Drop Dead Cabin for the very first time. I admit I was getting motion sick due to the controls. I think Mixed Reality will solve that issue because I lke to move freely with my head and look around.
Yeah, it’s really amazing and I do think the most the sickness will eventually go away. But a lot of the games where you’re moving a lot and you’re sitting still is very tough. I still can feel a bit woozy at times but it does get better. I promise. The mix reality stuff is really good and that does help with it as well as you mentioned. I’m glad you’re enjoying the VR experience. The 3S is a great way to get into it.
I felt so sick after playing red matter for a bout an hour a few days after getting it. I've adjusted since with shorter sessions and adapting to the tech
Thanks for replying my friend. I tried the MR mode of Drop Dead Cabin yesterday for the first time ( after 2 hours recovering from motion sickness playing the main game). I played a lot of zombie games before and RE2 Remake, RE4 Remake and 7 days to Die are my favorite ones. But this MR thing is on a whole other level. Its one thing to see this on UA-cam but to experience it yourself is a whole other thing. It almost looks so real. And there was that point that those zombies broke through all the windows and doors and I got overrun and I turned my head and screamed because a zombie was standing right behind me and I panicked and tried to shoot it but my gun was outa ammo and slapped it with the barrel of my gun. I died as expected but it was simply amazing.
Ive owned a quest 2 for years and it's been amazing. I bought the Quest 3 yesterday and if I'm being honest, I don't really notice the difference when I'm using the Quest 3 over the 3s.Aside from the resolution which I personally don't really notice they are Exactly the same. I spent the extra $200 for the Quest 3 but I use VR a lot. The 3s works just as well.
Is there a big difference between FOVs? I really want to know cause i dont have a high budget and i want one q3s. Some people say that q3s isn’t like real VR experience and it feels like you are watching through a screen? Is that true?
For those who played a lot with the Quest 2, I think that in terms of new features the 3s is better, but in terms of visual quality the q3 wins, I'm going to choose only the new features and I'm going to buy my q3s
Did you buy? I’m really curious and i cannot decide between q3 and q3s. Some people say that q3s isn’t like VR and it feels like you are watching it through a screen. Is that true? Let me know about your opinions please cause i really need to know
@V12BrawlStars I haven't bought it yet but I have the Quest 2 which has the same lenses as the q3s so I can give my opinion... The quality of the lenses really isn't the best, But I don't think it's like I'm looking at a screen, and even if it is, I'd still rather look at a screen than pay $100 more for a better lens and higher resolution.
I feel like if you’re someone who’s gonna only bring out the VR occasionally at a party or to play some mini putt with friends then get a 3s. If you’re die hard and use the head set daily get the 3. Most importantly stay within budget 😂
VR seems pretty ready for mainstream adoption with a quality headset/ecosystem for $500 for a Quest 3 and $60 in digital credits. Got one for Christmas!
My big question would be since Facebook took over it, and made it all Facebook accounts built in and required, what is the privacy aspect? Can they see whatever you see? Is it tracked?
It's no longer required to have a Facebook account they were doing that I think when the quest 2 and the quest 3 launched but they've had more updates since then and it's no longer required for you to have a Facebook account but to answer your question yes no matter what it's still tracked because the company is still Facebook so yes they do track you and they also watch you play which they say it's just to improve game data so that it makes games easier to play and more of a better fit for the user but let's be honest because it's Facebook we all know they're probably selling our information so I mean really it's just about whether or not you want to sell your soul for VR and to be honest with you the choice was very easy for me once they announced Arkham shadow I knew I was selling my soul😂😂 but yeah on a more serious note I hope this helps you make a decision to be honest if you were going to go into VR more for gaming and you can't afford a PC VR because let's face it they're extremely expensive this would be the way to go but again there's pros and cons to every situation
@mashy712 i know I can, but first of all, these dongles that last long and are good quality are expensive. Second, i want to charge quests as im using them, and there is only one usb c port in 3s
i feel like ill save and buy the Quest 3. After playing for years on the quest 2 I really want to feel that upgrade with the pancake lenses. that means I have to wait a few months but Im sure itll be worth it!
I have never had a VR before i mainly wanna get it to play games like Project demi god Blades and sorcery and the new batman game do you think i should just get the 3s or would it be worth for me to pay the extra for the normal 3
Definitely worth it to get the 3 for the extra $200. The difference is pretty significant. The lenses are way, way better and the resolution bump is quite noticeable as well.
I'm torn 500 Quest 3 or 300 Quest 3s with 75 dollar gift card Amazon black friday special. So 225 vs 500 ( more storage, better resolution). I have the quest 2 so it's a tough one. I'm thinking more about saving money 💰
I also got the same struggle in days. Better lenses bigger memory be cheaper. Today put an order for a 3s with 128gb, thinking to get a cheapest one and wait for the quest 4 in 2026.
@@zacherycombs1023 I bought the 3S and while it's amazing for watching movies, you do need to get the lenses in the sweet spot, so a little adjustment is needed and you need to move your head a little to see very big screens in good focus. I think the 3 lenses give you more of the screen that's in focus so you can just move your eyes to see all the big screens in full focus. One thing to budget for is a head strap as the one it comes with is not comfy at all - I just about managed 45mins with it before it was aching my cheeks. Bought a M3 Pro and so much better but does take a bit of adjusting. Overall I am very pleased with the 3 for the money and 3D looks good, better than my projector (1080p) with 3d glasses. I'm still not sure the extra £200 for the 3 is worth it, when I could almost buy a second 3s for my partner so we didn't have to keep swapping.
I'll tell you straight up, it's apples to oranges. People downplay the comfort / resolution of the 3 so much. It's extremely noticeable. And when you're watching 8k 360 videos or even 180 it's literally insane the difference.
I've had the question 1 and 2 and think ill get the 3s because i tend to prefer casual games like vr chat and i hook up to my basic vr pc anyway there are a few games that i play where the 3 is probably better but ill have to check out the prices of the cheaper quest 3 first and how much storage it has
3S if u want a budget version, btw don’t get 256gb 3S at that point just get a 3, 3has 20% more resolution and wider fov and pancake lenses for an extra 200 bucks
Questions -is it compatible with BOBO S3 pro? -is the lens shapes of 3S the same as 3?(I have a lens film for 3, if it's compatible I might buy 3s instead) -is there a mic on 3s?
First off, MoMo S3 Pro is mid and overhyped 2. the lens of the 3s is Fresnel Lens of the quest 2 use and also 3s mic is similar to quest 2 mic. okay have a good day.
I’m sorry bruh but you can’t play the most cartoony looking worst games on the headset to show the difference in visuals I just want to know the clarity in video games/resolution
heard nothing but bad? or do people say it is not better than that 3 which is true. at the end of the day you have the device and can shape your own experience

"pass thru in crystal clear vision" - yeah dude, did you even use it?
With good lighting and compared to the 2. It is. Maybe the word crystal was a bit much but it’s still very clear.
Dude it’s like 10x better😂 try it yourself
Its hardly crystal clear........... I have one.
everything is perfect with 3s but the lack of headphone jack hurts, at this point idk if i should but the 3s or 3
You can always get a USB C to 3.5 mm dongle.
