Meta Quest 3S

Meta has launched the Quest 3S, a new virtual reality (VR) headset priced at $299, offering an entry-level option for people interested in VR technology.

The Quest 3S is a stripped-down version of the more expensive Quest 3, but maintains similar performance capabilities. It features the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor and 8GB of RAM as the pricier model, ensuring compatibility with existing games and software.

Key specifications include:

  • Display resolution: 1,832 by 1,920 pixels per eye
  • 120Hz refresh rate
  • Weight: 514 grams
  • Battery life: Up to 2.5 hours
  • Storage options: 128GB and 256GB

While the graphics are slightly less crisp compared to the Quest 3, the device still delivers high-quality visual experiences. The headset offers an intuitive setup process and comfortable design, making it accessible for first-time VR users.

The significant price difference—nearly half the cost of the Quest 3—makes the 3S an attractive option for those wanting to explore virtual and augmented reality without a substantial financial investment.

Meta aims to make VR more mainstream with this affordable device, potentially expanding the market for virtual reality technology.
