    I wasn't planning to buy the Quest 3 but yesterday my Quest 2 started to have flickering pixels on the right side of the right lens and it is also now taking several minutes to start up. Your timely review of the PCVR improvements pushed me over the edge so I pre-ordered a 512 gb Q3 from my local Best Buy. I realized that my current PCVR games might be really fresh and interesting again with this headset. Thank you for that advice!

Also, if the industry is going to skew away from PCVR content, the larger memory capacity will be much more important. I won't like that but I'll still be able to have new games to play.

      When it comes to Valve Deckard I think you might be surprised.
      Newell had the opinion that you had to "make it good before you make it mainstream." . The specs of Deckard certainly suggest it is good enough and the pricing of SteamDeck suggest Valve are prepared to subsidize/ sell at cost IF they consider the product to have the mass market appeal.
      Personally I would pay whatever they asked for 4k per eye/microOled/pancake lense/Display Port/Eye Trackng headset.

    I had the first Quest, the 3 is a significant improvement over that. Faster response time, higher resolution, better sound etc. I only got it to watch movies, tv, and VR media anyway. It's comfortable enough to wear lying down, you can charge it while using it and is probably better than many smart tv's at a comparable price.

    Matteo you outdid yourself with this one !! By far the best and most honest review I`ve seen.
    Being hyper critical ....
    - Forza ? LOL :)
    - The Quest3 CPU performance seems to be unchanged from the Q2. They claim 33% compared to the Q2 (original clocks). So basically the same compared to the current Q2. This is the limiting factor for games with a bigger scope. This WHY assassins creed nexus is levels rather than the FULL assassins creed open world game from 2007. Quest 3 will not allow "proper" games any more than Quest 2 did. It will simply allow better looking Q2 games. No comment about GTA tells you everything NOT even powerful enough for a 2004 (open world) game :)
    - Performance using link cable on Q3 vs Q2 ??
    - The cheaper Quest 3 (lite) is going to be Meta`s attempt to leave VR behind and transition to MR. No controllers, Only Hand tracking and Improved Passthrough. NO proper games with locomotion.
    - VR games are just a means to and end for Meta. If MR doesn`t take off then their long term vision is in serious doubt. If MR does take off (It wont:) then Quest 4 will be a MR first headset without controllers.

    I came to appreciate your reviews and thoughts more overtime. Thank you for the straightforward, organized review!
    I think AR will be best with media consumption and productivity like in Piano-vision and other tools to assist you with learning a new skill. I also think it is useful for third person gaming like found in Lego Bricktales and Demeo Battles. VR is great for the first-person immersive games, but Mixed reality will be cool for things like board games and tabletop games, and cool ideas like a Yugioh like game. It just expands the kinds of games that can be viable.
    I wish Meta provided more Mixed Reality demos for people to try at launch, but I can understand that it is still something in progress. I hope it branches out to something more than a "gimmick" because I can see a lot of uses for it. I'm mostly just going to use mine right now for watching videos in passthrough. I have the new Spiderman Across the Universe movie already set up to watch in a full screen view. Excited!

When i saw your footage of the VD overlay, i got the impression, that you used WIFI 6, maybe even without a dedicated AP, right?

    Thanks for the honest review. I'm an enthusiest who justified buying yet another headset because of a reason I don't think you covered. I have 2 children. I bought my 13 year old son a quest 2 so we could play together, but my 8 year old daughter was not able to join us even though we were in the same home but different realities. Now I bit that bullet to upgrade to the 512 Quest 3 and with the account share I can play experiences like walkabout mini golf or contractors with both kids. I can even show my kids where I used to live or grew up with wander. Believe it or not, my wife is even on board with this (she's a teacher) when I showed her the educational uses like the Ann Frank house and Mission ISS. The possibilities are limited to the users imagination.

    I just pre-ordered me one of those 512GB Version of the Quest 3 to have that extra storage space and to also, take advantage of the Pre-order offer of getting that Asgard's Wrath 2 and 6 months Subscription to Meta which is 2 Free games per month making 13 games in Total. So I disagree with you saying, don't rush into getting one. To get the best bang for your buck is to rush and pre-order it now. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I also heard you saying 512GB Version is a rip off. Are you serious, The whole purpose of having a portable VR headset is to be able to take it anywhere and play your games. If you don't have the storage space to install your games you won't have any games installed to play. Internet isn't always available.✈️ For example, My Asus ROG ally and Steam Deck both came with 512GB and after installing 5 games I was already out of space. Sea of theives is 100GB alone. So Luckily, I was able to swap out the 512GB ssd to a 2TB ssd giving me plenty of space to install my game library. Having multiple games on my portable hand-held to enjoy when I am out and in locations with No Internet access. 🌄
    I Agree, with you this Quest 3 is impressive. 😉👌 But, 128GB just isn't enough storage in my opinion. If I could swap out the 512GB to 2TB in this Quest 3 that would be Awesome. "I like having storage space." 😁👍 Thanks for your review, Enjoyed watching it. Note: Valve Index is Trash! My Vive Cosmos is Better. J/K 🤗🤭😂💯🎮🕹🥷

    I agree with the mixed reality experiences. If we dont have the same real space for a game, the experiences WILL NOT be the same ever. That is why the piano experience works, it can anchor to a real life obkect, or if recreated, can give a real scale to a piano. I suppose mixed reality experienses that anchor to an object instead of a space will have more possitive reseption. Instrument tutorial apps and games (something like rockband or guitar hero) will probably be among the best mixed reality experiences. A tabletop simulator mixed reality implementation could also be a great way to play something like D&D or board games.

    I always recommend to people looking to buy something for the first time not to go waste their money on old tech because once they pass the honey moon period they will have buyers remorse because of learning what a few more dollars could have got them. In the case of the quest 3 I think the best advice I could give is do nothing don’t buy old and don’t buy new because the software isn’t ready to support the hardware and while we wait for it to catch up another player might enter the ring or the cheaper quest lite might be a better option

    Excellent and comprehensive review, Matteo; thank you!
    I greatly appreciate your in-depth discussions on each aspect of the Quest 3's pros and cons. I agree with you, re. the whole Passthrough discussion. I think Meta's development with those games was seriously affected by the failure of the Quest Pro; hopefully, time and developers' interest will improve the available selection of passthrough games and experiences over the next several months. I just hope the comments many reviewers have had about the passthrough's resolution won't interfere with creating some really good games.
    As I've mentioned before, I went ahead and pre-ordered the Quest 3, largely because I didn't like the Quest 2 for myself, but I have a pretty substantial games library that I'd like to enjoyably get back into. I also think it will help my disabled, mostly house-bound sister. Even with the various head straps, the Quest 2 was always too front-heavy for her to use comfortably. Hopefully, the more compact form factor of the Quest 3 will work better for her.
    Anyway, looking forward to Wednesday, when I'll get my Quest 3, and to getting a chance to actually experience what you talked about!

    VR and AR/MR are two different products and should be treated as such. I signed up for VR, exploring different environments and getting inside the worlds of my favorite games. I want to play big huge AAA games in worlds I am familiar with. That's what we were getting in the "golden age", that was what attracted me to VR. Those big huge worlds you could explore for hours, the Commonwealth, Skyrim, Pandora, in 3D so we really felt like we were there.
    Then Meta pivoted to stand alone, the big familiar worlds became small unfamiliar worlds because of the limitations, and everybody said THIS IS BETTER.
    Now another pivot, Meta has demonstrated no comittment to gaming and shifted focus to AR/MR to the point that all of the games are now jumping on board. Worlds get so small its actually just the inside of my house now.
    The whole HMD is focused on it, a big waste if you have no interest in this OTHER product. Give me a Meta Rift X with the updated tracking, lenses, and controllers and start up a division focused on gaming, update the PC software that desperately needs it, and I'll back. In the mean time I'll keep playing my Rift S and my Q2 and watch for other players. The Q3 has nothing for me.

    I thoroughly enjoyed your review; it was quite insightful! However, I must correct you on one point: an Nvidia GTX 1060 isn't twice as powerful as the Quest 3's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. The Nvidia GTX 1060 has around 4.37 teraflops of computing power, whereas the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the Quest 3 ranges between 2.5 to 3 teraflops. To be precise, if we take the higher value of 3 teraflops for the Quest 3, then the GTX 1060 is approximately 45.6% more powerful. On the other hand, if we go by the lower value of 2.5 teraflops, the GTX 1060 would be about 74.8% more powerful. Other than this minor correction, your video was fantastic!

      1/3 of the performance of a GTX 1060
      1/7 of the performance of a PS5.
      1/60 of the performance of the RTX 4090
      >> Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in the Quest 3 ranges between 2.5 to 3 teraflops
      These are intentionally misleading "peak performance" figures that every hardware company puts out when the launch a product.
      Nvidia, AMD try the same thing.
      Here is an example, remember this from last year ?
      "GeForce RTX 4000 graphics cards will offer a two- to four-times performance increase over its last-generation GPUs" - Nvidia
      Notice the similarities in wording. Leaving out key details, being vague what assumptions are being made etc.
      What was the difference in actual frame rates from RTX 3000 vs RTX 4000?
      It ranged from 77% (4090vs3090) , 56% (4080vs3080), 28% (4070vs3070), 21% (4060vs3060)
      To make any definitive judgement we need to wait for actual benchmarks to be run.
      If Q3 is really 2x (that is it delivers twice the frame rate of the same game on Quest2 (current clocks) ) then I would be very surprised and the engineers involved should have a statue erected in their honor for this achievement :)

    10:39 Good points but it sounds like you wouldn't have been sold on VR till Half life aylix dropped as the first at home PCVR game that wasn't overpriced/scam on my Rift CV1 was Onward in 2019... Which I feel after seeing people play Quest 3 AR/MR games/gamemodes I feel we are there in 2019... So yeah maybe it will take you years to be sold on AR/MR and that's fine many people are not sold on VR and likely never will.

    I really don't want to hate on Meta, I want to like them and I don't. If they want to be liked, they could start by getting some spokespersons. Watch old videos of Palmer or Carmack, you can feel the passion. Mark is a bad presenter, he is unlikable, doesn't seem attached to the product, and can't even get a chuckle out of an audience entirely on the payroll.
    They could open up the Oculus game studio, for real no just one game. Instead of big flat screen Xbox in VR they could work on getting us a 3D perspective in those games. They could work on this AR stuff and put someone in charge of games. I'll start liking Meta when Meta starts doing stuff I like.

    12:30 you've used a wrong codec for that, you should have been using AV1 for 200 Mb goldlike, it would be better in stability, quality and latency. Don't understand why you didn't since you've got a 4090 and it supports AV1. You had >15 ms decode latency with HEVC, no suprise it felt worse.

One more thing, I see other people saying that because displays are tilted there is more aliasing on straight lines, for example watching a movie in standalone mode the borders of the screen are aliasing hard. Did you notice anything like that in PCVR or supersampling just kills this problem completely?

    Question Mateo, The tracking for Beatsaber... Is it better than Quest 2 or is it about the same?
    Quest 2: Hitting boxes to the extreme upper left or right almost always results in a miss. Like most players, I've adapted by making sure I look physically closer to that box and physically strafe a bit (left to right) to keep that blind spot as small as possible. Its just not good enough. Does Q3 tracking improve on this or the same?
