Meta Quest 3S Finally Announced, Launches October 15

by

As a seasoned gamer and tech enthusiast with a soft spot for virtual reality, I can confidently say that the Meta Quest 3S is shaping up to be a game-changer. Having recently dipped my toes into the VR world with the Meta Quest 3, I can vouch for its immersive capabilities that make other gaming experiences feel like watching a flatscreen TV in comparison.

At Meta Connect, Mark Zuckerberg, often referred to as ‘The Zuck’, introduced the long-awaited Meta Quest 3S, a brand-new virtual reality (VR) headset. This device serves as an inviting gateway into the realm of VR gaming and applications. Slated for release on October 15, its specifications and affordable price make it a compelling choice for first-time VR users seeking a high-quality device.

A Bit of This, a Bit of That

The Meta Quest 3S VR headset combines aspects of both the Meta Quest 2 and the Meta Quest 3. It sports lenses that are slightly older, potentially providing a less optimal viewing experience, yet it boasts the same chipset as the Meta Quest 3, ensuring equal capabilities in terms of playability, display, and functionality.

Leaving aside the older technology momentarily, we find ourselves considering a VR headset at an appealing cost. It has been verified that a 128 GB variant of this headset will be available in October for only $300, and the 256 GB version will retail at $400.

The device will incorporate full-color pass-through technology similar to the Quest 3’s and boast battery life nearly on par, but it may not deliver as immersive a visual experience due to its less advanced optics – this is primarily due to the simpler lens design.

Additionally, it employs identical controllers as the Meta Quest 3, making them user-friendly and highly responsive.

If you’re seeking an affordable yet captivating Virtual Reality (VR) experience, the Meta Quest headset is a fantastic choice, especially with the upcoming release of the Meta Quest 3, which promises an even more economical entry point. I recently acquired the Meta Quest 3 myself, following my exhilarating encounter with Metro Awakening at Gamescom, and let me tell you, it offers the most immersive gaming experience you’ll ever encounter.

At least, until we’re plugging ourselves into devices – but that’s at least a few years away yet.
