Score a fantastic deal on the Meta Quest 3S VR headset! Amazon is currently offering a $50 discount, bringing the price of the 256GB model down to just $349. This is a significant saving, especially considering the inclusion of Batman: Arkham Shadow VR and a three-month trial of Meta Quest+. This surpasses even Black Friday deals, which often involved less desirable store credits or gift cards.
The bundle includes:
-
Meta Quest 3S 256GB VR Headset: An upgrade over the Quest 2 in every aspect, boasting features like improved Touch controllers, an upgraded Snapdragon APU, and full-color AR passthrough – all at a competitive price point. IGN gave it a 9/10 rating, praising its processing power, passthrough, and controllers.
-
Batman: Arkham Shadow VR: Experience the acclaimed Arkham series in VR. IGN's 8/10 review highlights its engaging gameplay and compelling story.
-
Three-month Meta Quest+ Trial: Extend your VR experience with this added bonus.
Key Features & Differences from Quest 3:
The Quest 3S offers nearly identical performance to the Quest 3, but at a significantly lower price ($349 vs $500). The main differences lie in the optics:
- Similarities: Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, Touch Plus controllers, 120Hz refresh rate, mixed reality passthrough.
- Differences: Lower per-eye resolution (1832x1920 vs 2064×2208), Fresnel lens vs. pancake lens, slightly lower FOV (96°/90° vs 104°/96°), smaller storage (128GB vs 512GB), and longer battery life (2.5 hours vs 2.2 hours).
The lower resolution, using the same processor, potentially enhances performance and accounts for the extended battery life. The Quest 3S is completely untethered, offering a superior value proposition compared to both the Quest 3 and the previous generation Quest 2.
