Should I Buy It?
If you're an enthusiast of virtual reality and are comfortable with potential initial software issues and additional accessory costs, the Meta Quest 3 can offer a high-quality immersive VR experience. But, given the price point and the product's pros and cons, potential buyers are advised to wait for potential improvements in future generations or price drops during holiday seasons.
Disclosure: I paid for this item with my own money Sixteen months ago, I bought a Q2 [for PCVR¹, thus far the native apps aren’t of interest] and didn’t use it as much as I’d expected.² With this in mind, frankly, I had some serious reservations about getting a Q3, but now that I have one in hand and can compare them side-by-side, I’ve ZERO regrets. 😺 Resolution: improved, but not enough to be the sole reason to upgrade. I can still, just barely, see the space between pixels. The rendering of small text elements is more readable as they are better formed and there is less shimmer. 😻 Lenses: WOW! The difference in clarity between the Q2’s Fresnel lenses and the Q3’s pancake optics is night and day. Not only is the clarity improved, but the “sweet-spot” is huge in comparison. Definitely a reason to upgrade. 😺 Field of View: noticeably improved both horizontally and vertically. While still constrained, it feels less like I’m viewing the world through a scuba mask. 😿 Contrast: comparable Black is still dark grey. I really wish they had used micro-LED (as they did on the QPro) or OLED displays. 😻 Pass through cameras: a significant QoL improvement As a glasses wearer (I bought a set of third party prescription lens inserts), it's really nice not to have to take off the headset to do a lot of things which, on the Q2 required removing the headset, putting on my glasses, doing the thing, taking off my glasses, putting the headset back on, and adjusting it for comfort. I should acknowledge that a privacy/security minded individual might well find the improved pass through cameras disturbing. You may find yourself, as I did, doing things like unlocking your phone or entering your computer's password with the headset on. 😬😬😬😬 😻 IPD settings: significantly improved The Q3 offers fine grained control, while the Q2 coarse-grained control gives you a choice of just 3 settings. 😐 Controllers: neutral I liked the rings on the Q2’s because they served as built-in stands; there are no rings on the Q3’s. Otherwise, they feel good in the hand and work just fine. Things I’ve not specifically tested, but are noted in the reviews I’ve read while doing my pre-purchase research: • battery life: reportedly worse than on the Q2 • sound quality: reportedly worse than on the Q2 • eye-relief mechanism: the Q3 has a built-in mechanism to adjust the lens distance, while the Q2 required the installation of spacers • native gaming experience: the Q3 reportedly has 2.6X GPU power and 2.1X CPU power as the Q2 Overall: while I’m sad there weren’t any BF/CM deals for the base model Q3, at $500+tax, it’s a still terrific bargain. It’s a shame about the contrast though 😹 BTW: setup requires pairing with the Oculus app on your phone. Neither the app nor the screen in the headset tells you that the phone must be connected to the same wifi network as the Q3 AND bluetooth must be enabled. I didn’t have wifi enabled and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t pair until a trip to the interwebs revealed the fix. _____ ¹ — For PCVR I’m using Virtual Desktop. Some folks swear by Meta’s own Quest Link (some preferring the WiFi version, others, the wired version using USB), but it seems they are predominately owners of Green Team graphics cards. I’ve got a Red Team 6800XT and Virtual Desktop gives me the best results by far. To minimize latency, the headset is connected directly to the PC, which is hosting a dedicated hotspot. I’ve not tried yet Quest Link with the Q3, but Virtual Desktop handles it just fine. [A curious aside: on my system, Virtual Desktop’s “HVEC 10-bit” encoder, which graphically is better than the plain “HVEC” encoder, also has a lower latency!] ² — Considering the price I paid vis-à-vis. what it can do, I still regard the Q2 as a true bargain. In a sense, even its limitations were a positive, because it made me aware of what I wanted out of my next headset.

So this is nearly a perfect product, so ill leave the good for the end, what I will go into first is the bad 1) 128gb is barely enough if this is where you play games, 20 is eaten by system, and depending on games 20-60gb per game, and some games are things you will want to come back to often enough so removing them would just be a long term pain in the ass. 128gb costs meta 15-20$, 512 costs meta 5$ more, but it costs you over 150$ more... thanks meta 2) the devils jockstrap... it hurt my ears, it hurt my head, it was a pain in the ass to adjust, so right there is another 20-30$ to replace that, look up meat quest 3 and you will probably find what I use, its one of the best you can get currently and likely will still be among the best once the bigger brands put theirs out... the meta pro strap for 130$ is abject garbage compared to even bad third party ones 3) thanks meta for a cheese grater like cloth that actively hurts if you start to sweat, ho, the silicone upgrade will costs me 60$ but will still have glasses fogging issues? amvr put out a good one with an ice silk (that's what they call it) and pu leather face piece with Velcro to attach replacements, and unlike the stock face piece, it doesn't collapse in on itself when tightening to the face, great middle finger there to glasses wearers, there goes another 30~$ 4) thank you zuck for your unfathomable wisdom in in a 5000 mAh battery that sucks itself dry in under 2 hours... this isn't the beginning of vr anymore, people have gotten use to vr and are capable of being in it for over 2 hours at a time. so you will need to look for either a 16 foot cable, trust me this is not ideal when you want to move around, something pc vr players have dealt with forever, but something quest players largely don't, so you will likely need a battery bank... oh what's this, qualicom QC is the standard used, fantastic, there are 0 good brands that use qc as a standard, the best I found was an 2000-5000mHa battery that says its 18000mAh, doesn't deliver the power it says it does, feel like it may catch fire with how hot it makes the cable, BUT it can extended gameplay another hour or so. this is a bit of a wash, I just wish they didn't use the worst standard for charging a device possible so I could get something from a trustable brand. in total you are looking at about 100-250 extra in costs, beyond base model. now for the good wireless pc vr, as long as you have an av1 encoder or a hell of a good router for h264 form nvidia, you are able to run pc vr wirelessly, you get access to meta games, pretty much the only vr store that gets active development and not just afterthought sloppy seconds. the controllers last probably 10-20 quest charges in-between needing new batteries. and if you understand how, most unreal games going forward and quite a few current ones now have vr though mods, along with several other games through mods, and if you understand how to get a 3d map to work from a depth shader, you can get near any 3d game to be 3d, though its a bit hacky. you are also able to stream desktops to the quest, and the text is easily readable. for games, even very basic ones that look like they could be from 20 years ago, its immersive in ways you won't believe. take the game compound, it looks like the first Wolfenstein game just with better textures, but because you are in the game and nothing is really making you acutely aware you are in a game, the graphics fade away, this feeling is just very hard to explain, but graphics you see on store or in videos do not do justice to seeing them yourself. overall, this everything I wanted out of vr besides an oled display, its clear that hmd's are the future for displays, its just how long it takes to catch on.
