  • I've had 'em all - This is BIG WIN!
Size: 128GB Style: Headset Only
So, I started with the original Oculus Developer Kit 1, then on to 2, then the consumer Rift, Rift S, Quest 2, and temporarily had a Quest Pro (a great piece of tech, but too expensive..returned in 1 week). We've come a long way with Quest 3.... - The clarity of the new "pancake" lenses are a marvel after dealing for years with the now primitive, Fresnel lenses. No more having to reposition the flipping headset around, over and over just to find that one tiny spot of clarity while their outer area remains blurry. These flat pancake lenses are just super clear all around, from edge to edge. - The resolution bump from the Q2 is another nice welcome. The blacks are not jet black like you would find on an OLED screen (like the PlayStation VR2), but that would bring the cost up. When you're playing games or experiences, you won't even be thinking about it. Would you rather have fresnel lenses like PS2VR? I don't think so. In addition to these new features, the fieild of view has widened on Quest 3, another upgrade that makes a difference. - The sound is beefier and louder. No more tin can alley like the Q2, and the fantastic spatial sound adds more to the immersion. I went back and played some older games, finding sounds that I've never quite heard on Quest 2, which really surprised me. The haptics are also very much improved over the Q2, though not as potent as I would have liked. The Pro controllers are more advanced in this department, as is the PSVR2. - The controller wrap around rings over the hands are a thing of the past, and good riddance. These controllers feel great, and track without a hitch. I'm super glad that they are sticking to regular AAA batteries for the controllers. They last a sick amount of time, as opposed to the Quest Pro controllers which are rechargeable. Some people prefer that style, but I prefer having to simply replace batteries and continue playing, rather than waiting for yet another device to recharge Plus, I remember getting overheating warnings with the Pro Controllers, and they never felt warm. If you didn't put the controllers down for a bit, the warning would not go away. There's a number of complaints about this odd issue in the Oculus forums. Not sure if they fixed this by now, but I do remember the Oculus mods being dumbfounded by this ordeal. The Mixed Reality / Passthrough As someone who's been around the tech industry for over 35 years, this is a new level of entertainment. Mixed Reality puts virtual objects right in your real space. Imagine sitting on your couch, viewing your entire room, while watching a spaceship break through your ceiling and land on your couch. Following that, you'll view in amazement as alien fuzzballs start breaking apart the walls to your surroundings, trying to get in, while revealing a complete alien landscape as you race to catch those critters with the supplied blaster as they pop in and land on your floor, and furniture! You have to see it to believe it. You're still in your room, but now all the walls have been blown out. This all works convincingly thanks to the new room scanning feature, which is something right out of the Matrix. You simply walk and look around your room(s) as it automatically detects walls and obstacles during setup. How about playing a dungeon crawling board game ON YOUR ACTUAL TABLE, or break into a sweat as zombies smash through your doorways, and climb in from the windows. If that's too much, then why not set up a giant TV screen that would dwarf the real TV in your room. Dozens of games and apps already have been updated to support mixed reality, so there's already many things to try out. Every day seems to bring more. The beauty of Mixed Reality is that you're not fully engulfed in Virtual Reality. You're still seeing all of your real world, but the virtual stuff comes to you! This is a wonderful way to introduce newcomers to VR who may not feel comfortable completely cut off from their surroundings. So, now you can exercise with a virtual trainer, box against a computer opponent in your own living room, or explore your house which can be haunted with ghosts. All this can be done without worrying about kicking your dog, watching if your baby wanders away or smashing your skull into a real TV set. One other advantage, it cuts down the possibility of motion sickness which can be a problem for certain people. The one big complaint about mixed reality - the passthrough is kind of fuzzy, so your real world has kind of a grainy film over it, and when combined with the stunning virtual objects, there's a stark difference. Good lighting helps the situation, but ultimately, it becomes a non-issue because once your play area is combined with the virtual world, you won't even be much concerned about the quality; your room becomes the backdrop as your eyes are mainly focused on the virtual parts, leaving the whole mix to be quite convincing, and for this price point, to have this feature? Are you kidding me? It's amazing! Of course, you can alway play in total virtual reality, because that's still the popular choice for hardcore VR enthusiasts. Speaking of which, I've seen many comments on various forums where VR veterans were knocking mixed reality, saying things like "who wants this? I don't need mixed reality, I will only play in complete Virtual". After a few days, I already saw a change of heart. Now it's, "oh wow, I never thought I'd get into this, now I want more!". Yeah, mixed reality is here to stay and grow. The comfort Well, here's where I personally find a negative. The default strap provided with the Meta Quest 3 is similar to the strap on the Quest 2, however, this has a bit more stability, with its adjustable Y-shaped back. It's one of those things, you try on, and think - oh, this isn't bad at all, only to find shortly after, either your forehead, cheeks or both feel a bit too much pressure. It's not as bad as the Quest 2, as the Quest 3, doesn't protrude as much, due to its new design, but it's no way good for long play sessions. I simply purchased a 3rd Party Elite-style strap on Amazon.. so mission accomplished there as it's a very comfortable, halo-style ($37.00) which is the way to go. Battery life ...is still short - around two hours, though some complained it's even shorter. I tend to use an ultra-long C cable plugged into an Anker power supply and I can go all day, and only take it off if I'm playing something like Beat Saber, or anything else that requires a lot of crazy hand movements. PCVR Like its predecessor, the Q3 will work with your PC Oculus and Steam VR games, providing you have a powerful PC. With the new resolution, wider FOV and lenses, PCVR games look better than ever! Overall - I absolutely love the Quest 3, even my spouse who had no interest in VR was amazed by the mixed reality and now wants one as well. ... show more

  • Arrived today: Seems to work good - read review.
Size: 512GB Style: Headset Only
The product arrived today, i recorded the opening and bootup. No dead pixels, passthrough works, there was a small issue with the nose piece not set but after looking it up it seems to be a common issue because of the way the VR opens/closes to adjust to face sizes. If this occurs, gently push along the nose ridge and it will readjust itself as long as no lock-tab parts are actually damaged. I lucked out, as none of the tabs were broken and were able to go back into place. The amazon box it came in again didn't have any protection what so ever. But the product itself was fine/stable in it's package box with appropriate padding. I had no issues getting it registered to meta, and grabbed a couple of free games that downloaded quickly enough. I haven't tried them, but I did explore the passthrough and nonpassthrough feature. Visual wise it's actually quite a bit more clear/crisp compared to the ps4 Vr(which is what I can compare it to). As it has a higher resolution/pixel count. I still haven't taken off the default stickers that protect the lenses until I can put on lense protectors. But even through all of the writing on the label that tells you NOT to use any form of liquid cleaners, even lense. It's visual is damn good. The passthrough visual via camera is on par with a ps4 VR headset: and suffer's some glitches when it hits reflective surfaces but that is normal as camera's hate that extra reflection of light.. But interface/scenes are definitely more clear and crisp. Sound quality is good, not like being at a rock concert, but goes loud enough to enjoy. Headsets for sound actually aren't really needed for this VR. I haven't hooked it up to a computer yet, as it's suppose to be the 'big' gift for me and my fiancé to enjoy over Christmas. As it was a purchase done by the both of us - after calculating expenses.. So the big question: Is it worth the money? My answer: Yes, I recommend going for the larger size because most of the games you will be downloading are often between 5-40gb.. With a few exceptions that could easily hit 80gb - example skyrim(haven't checked the store to see if that one is available on meta). Plus any mods one might want to add to the games. I was glad to see they had some of my more unique playstation favorites in their store. This made me happy, despite needing to buy it again. (Btw The Wizards* is excellent and lets you feel like your literally casting spells, or using a bow.) With that said, go for the BIGGER hard drive: it will make it so your VR can hold more then 3 games without suffering quality issues. As you always want to leave room(1-5gb) for the OS(opperating system) to run smoothly. Then you won't have to worry about uninstalling/reinstalling, clearing cache/HD maintence every time you want to change your lineup. **For people with limited understanding of storage space 512GB should easily allow you to store 15-25games which if you have 'data' usage limits for whatever reason would avoid burn up of data by constantly downloading the same thing. ... show more
