Okay, I will admit I wanted the Quest 3 so badly that when I saw your review I was highly highly disappointed and I poo-pooed the messanger (You) and didn't trust a word you said. I thought you were exagerating and a bit of a drama queen. I OWE AN APOLOGY as big as a house, not even a small house, a mansion would be more apt. EVERY single point you made was right on! I will subscribe to your channel and will never doubt any of your reviews again.
One of the best comments to see on here, thank you for sharing your experience and welcome 🙏🏼
chat is this a bot
lol wait it might be
@@BeyondtheBox1 Hard to say these days. I've been on CZcams since 2006 with my channels and people accuse me of being a bot because I am literally under every video. LOL I'm retired and I live, breathe, etc and drink CZcams. I get the, "I see you everywhere" comments all the time. Hah. Have a great week, Cade!
Quest 3 hands down is a big upgrade for the pancake lenses and the color passthrough alone. and some of the mixed reality games are amazing.
yeah he is in drugs
It’s not £400 worth of big upgrade though is it really in reality it just looks a little bit better not a lot. That is what people should understand before thinking about spending that amount of money
LCD lenses, not OLED (which even the first HTC Vive has), terrible contrast and lens glare. Compared to light house tracking, its terrible, also evil facebook/zuck.
All anyone has to do is BUY IT test it your self. MAKE SURE you can return it.
I'm guessing there will be an Oled version soon provided there is not some technical limitation to prevent that for working. That I will buy
I played Warplanes WW1 and immediately saw sharper resolution. i went back to the Q2 and validated it. I really Like MR, less over hang, auto room scan, adjustable IPD and eye glasses, color pass through. Looking forward to enhanced old/new games like Warplanes. Horse plow to tractor for sure. Happy with my 512gb
Wasted a ton of money
@@BeyondtheBox1Doesn’t sound like it was wasted to them.
@@tigolbiddies5444people are bad with money what can I say
you don't have to say anything@@BeyondtheBox1. My dude is happy with their purchase
Wait what
Hello. Which model would you recommend for movie watching and site seeing Apps?
Great summary at the end. I just wanna use one as a big screen for looking at the web as i live in a van. Q2 second hand seems like all i need (i don't have any vr atm).
Pancake lenses, actually being able to adjust for 65mm IPD (I currently adjust between positions on the Quest 2, but it's a kludge), Wifi 6E, AV1 encoding (with Virtual Desktop), colour passthrough (it has to be clearer and less grainy the Quest 2 pass though) and improved processing power (primarily for the encoding and navigation in standalone) are the reasons I'm keen to get the Quest 3 (primarily for wireless PCVR). Reasons I'm fine with waiting are the fact that I'm hearing a lot of reports of quality control issues with the displays (dead/stuck pixels in particular) and the lack of good aftermarket accessories available to fix the expected comfort issues and poor battery life (I'm using Meta's free silicone facial cover and the BoboVR M2 Pro+ with 2 batteries on my Quest 2). I'm also concerned about the crappy microphone quality we can hear in your video, but I doubt that'll be fixed (beyond Meta potentially reenabling Android's volume control). I've also just had eye surgery, so I'm hoping to regain stereoscopic visions before I worry about upgrading my headset.
Do you have a 40 series card? Unfortunately AV1 only works with the 40 series (Cries in 3080Ti)
@@Twister-1 also works with 7000 series AMD cards
Good luck with your surgery!!!
What is this free silicone interface from Meta you’re talking about?
@@PichettoFratame this was for the quest 2 I don’t think they do it anymore due to updates
Reading through these comments ive come to the conclusions it all depends on the individuals whether or not the q3 is actually worth it
Most of the people commenting are either brand whores when it comes to certain companies like meta or steam (for steam decks) but would never know how to compare for quality themselves because all they do is buy whatever the company puts out and calls it the greatest purchase they’ve ever made.
It also depends on if they had a quest 2 or nothing prior
@@BeyondtheBox1I have the quest 3. I agree, if there aren’t specific game upgrades you’re waiting for it is NOT worth it. I had the quest 2 in the past. All I really appreciate is the pancake lenses. The battery is even more ASS than he said in the video.
So quest 2 if you watch Netflix or even vids streamed from phone you get max 1080p where with Quest 3 you can get your full 4k quality vids. So games may not be there yet but media is...
@@makotoxpower9826 I was watching Amazon prime video last night in full 4K in the headset. It was incredible.
I appreciate your honesty truly. To find someone that keeps it real now day's is hard to find. Im going to get my 10 year old son a 2 today for his birthday. Hope you get all your subs 💯..
Thank you brother! Quest 2 is perfectly fine for your son. And a 3 for yourself 😉
Hey there! Thanks a lot for your video it was great.👍
Could you please answer my question?
I already have quest 2 so should I upgrade it to quest 3 if my only purpose is watching movies and series? I mean is it worth that?
No. Do not at least not yet. The quest 2 is more than perfect for your usage right now. Wait til after Christmas, they have some promotion coming in February.
@@BeyondtheBox1 Got it, thanks but what about the quality of picture of quest 3 is it really better than on quest 2 for movies?
I love the honesty in your videos. It's really refreshing to see someone who doesn't do sugarcoated reviews. I have a oculus quest 2 without any accessories and it gets really uncomfortable after a while. I thought about buying a quest 3 because it "looked comfier and lighter" but now I am just gonna wait and see more feedback about the battery and overall the released accessories
Glad I could help! Hope you subbed :)
I have the quest 2 and 3. Out of the box the 3 definitely isn't very comfortable but I think it has the same potential as the Q2 for comfort. Worth it is a very personal thing. Depends on how much money you have.
@@Notagain640 put more than $75 of accessories on it and it’s the most comfortable headset I’ve ever used now 💪🏼
@@BeyondtheBox1 What head strap did you get? vrbo? Did you also add battery?
I added the Aubika 8000mAh head strap (no battery noise or issues). To be honest, the Q3 built-in battery is big enough for me. 1-2 hours at a time is enough. However, I found that without the battery, the headset wanted to gradually slip down. I found it quite annoying having to constantly lift it up. I can't tolerate much force on the facial interface, so I couldn't clamp the headset to my face. The battery on the strap helps to counterbalance the weight of the headset so I can have the facial interface hardly touching my face. Of course overall its now a heavier unit and I would prefer it to be lighter, but you can't have everything. It's a pity Meta couldn't remove the battery from the headset and put it in the strap only or do something similar that would make the front unit lighter and provide counterbalance, but I guess they dismissed this as an option.
What I honestly think happened, just based on updates alone, is that they didn't really give dev teams a chance to work with the new technology beforehand. Like valve did with the knuckles, headsets, they should've sent out an unfinished product to the dev team to give them an idea of what their new hardware could handle to let them adjust the graphics ahead of time. While it sucks, I doubt it's going to take long for most companies to do so.
For game updates?
So, if I had only WMR Samsung Odyssey until now - should I go for Q3? Or it'll be better to stop at Q2?
I wanted to point out you said on charging, that charging the headset and elite battery separately was an option. I too thought this way and went about charging my elite battery by its self, many hours later and then I noticed the elite battery was not charging, stuck at 66%. Went back and read the instructions and confirmed by talking to Meta support. Both of which stated you have to charge through the elite strap connected to the headset. Doing it separately was stated that it could degrade the battery. I feel this is because the Battery Management System (BMS) is in the headset and not in the elite battery. Though this was not confirmed by Meta it makes sense, because of the statement of battery degradation when charging the elite battery by its self. Just thought I would post what I found out today. Hope this helps anyone watching your posts.
That’s your battery head strap that’s the issue. Plenty are already breaking online. Most not taking a charge at all.
Daisy chaining them allowed for me to get both fully charged, although took way more time then it should have.@@BeyondtheBox1
Very helpful, was getting an elite strap also for my quest 3
Thanks so much for an actual real life review! All the CZcamsrs making reviews got it for free and they know if they talk trash about it they will never get anything else for free again. Even some of the paid CZcamsrs are saying it has some "problems" but if they spent their actual money on it they would be really on a rant! Keep the real reviews coming!
I bought it as an upgrade from my Quest 1 along with a 3rd party elite strap and a silicone face cover. Hopefully it's a satifying upgrade from the original Quest and I'm looking forward to future games like Asgard's Wrath 2 and Assassin's Creed, as well as future apps.
The Quest 1 was a great device imo. It still works great after 4 years and it's still not a bad vr experience. Hopefully Q3 will be of similar value.
Q1 to Q3 is an amazing upgrade and wow you really held out! I could never be so patient haha
@@BeyondtheBox1 I really did 😂The Quest 2 didn't seem like a good enough upgrade at the time, and I was still very much enjoying my Quest 1. I still do enjoy it but I think it's finally time to upgrade. It also won't receive any new upgrades in the future.
Waiting patiently for my Quest 3 to arrive.
@@kedrickkonkle2804 Good to hear that it's a worthwhile upgrade. I got the ZyberVR elite strap which is one of the cheaper but more highly rated elite straps so far. I'm hoping it helps with comfort.
I'm still on Quest 1, and until I can play PCVR via USB for a few hours without any of this failed charging crap I am not getting a Quest 3. I'd sooner go with Pico 4 that has none of those issues.@@BeyondtheBox1
I'm in the same situation. Still using my Quest 1 but now only using airlink which works perfectly for me. Still considering if the resolution/comfort upgrade is worth it. I like the darkness that OLED gives. I actually bought Quest 2 when it came out but quickly refunded it because of the greyness I saw while playing Arizona Sunshine in the caves. Glad to hear you guys think its worth it.
Great job on this review bro ! The low battery life may be due to the recall they have on the elite strap that was announced a week or two after you posted this video. Mine broke twice and I finally went with another vendor now I get 6 to 8 hours depending on what I play. Really great job. Subscribed !
Which headstrap? My Kiki quest 3 just delivered the battery strap today and it’s so nice!
thanks for the honest review hopefully they can make a decent jump on the quest 4. what are they thinking having it weigh more being more uncomfortable and worse battery and no oled
I just upgraded from a quest 2 to quest 3 and I'm personally really happy with it. I think whether it'll be worth it or not to you depends on what you use it for.
I think the MR aspect is cool, the games are fun but there is definitely room for improvement there(from the games, not the headset). That said, I personally use my headsets more for pcvr gaming and fitness workouts and from that perspective the quest 3 is an absolute godsend over the quest 2. The fov and clarity in pcvr is night and day compared to the quest 2.
Comfort is subjective but for my face shape, the quest 3 is significantly more comfortable than the quest 2. The increased sweet spot size of the pancake lenses helps alot too where I just put the headset on and everything is nice a clear. I actually have to wear my quest 2 canted slightly down and twisted to the left in order to get perfect clarity in both eyes. The micro adjustable turn dial style of eye width adjustment is great too because I was inbetween clicks on the quest 2.
So yea, i can totally see why some are disappointed whereas some love it, it's just so subjective to the person and use case.
Btw I still use my quest 2 as a spare. I think I'll be making it my dedicated workout headset and leave my quest 3 as my dedicated pcvr headset.
@bodieh1261 does your Q3 hold a charge setup as PCVR? I cannot get my Q3 to hold any charge while using the Link Cable- this is my first set and intended to use only as PCVR- but am disappointed the battery dies while Linked-
I have an old rift S headset and wanted to upgrade to something. Awhile ago I bought a refurbished quest 2 from meta and after 30 days I sent it back because it seemed very weird how either blurry or fuzzy it looked. Could have been because it was a refurbished they just never fixed the lenses or they were scratched and not fixed in the refurb process. (I had heard the refurbished process for meta headsets was bare min only fix noticeable broken stuff and leave the lenses alone unless noticeable issues are there) the issues I had could be that or they could be a bad pair of prescription lenses I bought not matching my current eye prescription, or lastly my PD was 64mm and the one mm offset from setting 2 was making it look like that.
As you can see lots of factors could have lead to the bad experience. So since the quest 2 is on sale for $250 new right now, later today I’m going to go to my eye doctor and measure my PD and updated eye prescription for new lenses. I’ll see if my IPD is ok and will improve my decision on if I should pick up a quest 2 or wait a few days and buy the quest 3 for the IPD adjustment.
Nice review... Q: I currently have the HP Reverb G2V2 and realize it is going away in a year or two. I use my HP only for MSFS2020 as I am a private pilot, to pre fly routes and such. The teather cable doesn't bother me at all as I am sitting. What head set would you recommend to replace my HP Reverb? I was thinking Pico 4 (to use connected to PC). I look at vr headsets as disposable because the tech charges so fast so price is some concern. I'd hate to buy a $1300 head set only to be outdated in 6 months. Again, I only use VR for flight sim. Any suggestions on the Pico or any others. Oh, pancake lenses are of interest based on what I've heard.
Hey man! Sorry this reply is late, but if pancake lenses sound good to you I would definitely drop the extra $250 on a Q3. Especially just for pcvr/ flight sim, it will work for years and years to come. Let me know if you already decided, I get my Q3 on Wednesday so I could report back on the difference in flight sim on Q2 vs Q3!
@@portersstuff377 I picked up a Q3 last week and it's awesome! It's sharper and more clear straight out of the box than the HP ever was. I had to tweak and tweak the HP. Q3 is better without the adjustments, even though I will dial it in as I use it. Anyway, Q3 is a good choice. Thanks and enjoy!
@@jiml5233 Hey man glad to hear as mine gets here Wednesday! I ordered some prescription lenses too so I can play without glasses!
Thank you for your honesty. I thought I was the only one having the same disappointment 😅
Hope you enjoyed and hope I earn your sub!! Check my newest quest 3 video if you’re interested in my girlfriend’s first experience :)
The resolution on the quest 3 is actually bigger than you had said, the quest 2 has a full resolution of 1920 x 3664, where as the quest 3 has 2064 x 2208 per eye, because the quest 3 has 2 screens, the overall sharpness is better cause theres gonna be more physical pixels in front of you. the quest 2 had 1 screen, but per eye was 1920 x 1832, but you have each eye with 2064x2208, instead of one eye only technically seeing like 720 pixels wide. the res jump is much larger, I had a reverb g2 and am switching to quest 3 cause the res bump over the quest 2 was immediately noticeable on the g2 but the frenel lenses and sweet spots ruin it for me, I tried the quest 3 and I was like I need one lol.
Only worth it if you play PC VR otherwise not worth ut
@@BeyondtheBox1
disagree, as pixels per eye makes an even larger difference than a small reso bump, but then you get the reso bump anyway. If you put a decent strap on that thing so you can actually have the visor angled to your eyes properly that alone makes a diff. I'm guessing you have noticed that if you press the visor slightly against your face, and rotate it up and down a bit, you can get a much clearer image but try as you might, the straps won't hold it there. That's what the cushioned plastic arms on the bobo headstrap are for, to set the ride height of the visor, while the straps are solely for keeping the visor snug to your face. Also balances the front heavy weight.
On the quest 3's pancake lenses, you don't get that effect nearly as much, as the image is clearer from many angles, not just perfectly head on. but the increased weight while still being pretty front heavy added to single band strap doing the pressing of visor against face AND dictating ride head really does make it more uncomfortable until you get a proper strap.
Your honesty made me subscribe, great video! I almost bought a Quest 3 you saved me. Ill stick with the 2 for now.
Thank you so much! I hope I gained your trust. I’m having a top 10 accessories video for quest 3 made soon! My videos are honest but we try to keep them entertaining so feel free to check out any other videos I got for some good quality entertainment! If you got a product you want me to review let me know!
Have you tried it with pcvr? Is the sweetspot viewing area really considerably better than in the Quest 2. How is the halo artifacting with dark and contrasting images, better than Quest 2?
Halo is super bright. I hate it. I’m not sure about the sweet spot yet
Sweet spot is.. THE ENTIRE LENS.
It's basically a night and day difference to the point where when I compared the Quest 2 side by side with the quest 3, I almost couldn't understand how I was satisfied with that. loll
@@LARVideos Yeah I'm not sure what headset he's using but its not the one every other reviewer is using. Maybe he needs a replacement
I don't know what this guy is on about. I have both Q2 and Q3 as well as Reverb G2 and I use them for PCVR, Quest 3 is amazing clarity side to side. there is no 'sweet spot', it's all just sweet. As for the comfort, these guys just don't know how to adjust a headset, most people wear the strap too low on their head. If you want to poke holes in the Quest 3 launch, you should pick on the battery life as right now it's not very good even with the elite strap. Most people are augmenting the battery with an external battery bank, then it's fine.
Yeah, so I got my son a quest 3 and I took his old 2 and I couldn’t see much of a difference at all other than the color cams with pass through. This is an accurate, honest review.
Hope you enjoy the quest 2! Don’t feel left out it’s a great headset. Hope I gained your trust and your sub!
My girlfriend is in a new video of mine trying the quest 3 for the first time if you’re interested!
Thanks for this review. Preordering anything these days is a gamble with all the BS reviews. It never occured to me to skip a Quest gen. Thats a great idea. Im going to upgrade my PC instead and stick to Quest 2 with an extra battery 👍. Subbed.
Very good plan and thank you i appreciate you :)
Grate honest review. I have not even reviewed the Quest 3 on my channel because there are so many bugs and issues. Essentially with wireless PCVR. Recommend every Q2 owner to wait a few months for those issues to be ironed out before upgrading.
Hope i earned your trusted sub! Check out my newest video it’s my girlfriends first VR ever experience she went insane 🤣
hello if you don't mind which would you suggest me getting. Quest 3 or Pico 4. At first i was only want VR for steamVR but after some video of Quest 3 and it's quality of VRdesktop with people watching youtube and movie with it make me feel of buying Quest 3. the Quest 3 is $750 while the pico 4 is $480.
Quest 3! Wait til pico 5 comes out
I bought a Quest 3 but this is my first ever VR unit... got to say I'm very impressed with it, Red Matter3 looks amazing, I was so struck by how good it looks. I think give this 4-6 months when the games start rolling for the Q3 and it will be much better, but for me I have a huge back catalogue to play so I'm very happy, just got super hot too :)
Glad you love it! Great first purchase! Hope i earned your trusted sub! Check out my newest video it’s my girlfriends first VR ever experience she went insane 🤣
im stuck between getting a quest 3 or quest 2 because my only experience with vr is one u put ur phone in and play stupid games and the price difference between the quest 2 and 3 is 250$, is it really worth the extra 250 or should i just get the quest 2?
If budget quest 2 for $200 or under
if no budget get quest 3 for $500
For any entry level purchase I'd always go for as good is remotely reasonably priced. If you're not a chronic updater you know you're going to be skipping the next generation or three, so grab the product that will tide you over until the bait's too tasty to ignore
Thanks for the review. I wanted to make the jump to the 3, after having used the 2 for a couple years now, and considering getting into VR development - but I think a better idea would be to spend half of the money I would pay for the Quest 3 in accessories for my Quest 2, and extend the good experience I'm having with the 2 for a couple more years until they come out with the 4.
Great review!
I bought the quest 3 and gave my quest 2 to my little sister and you are the only person on you tube that gave the real . When you put on the quest 2 you notice the circular pattern in the lenses until you get in the sweet spot it goes away . They look the same the only difference is you don’t have to get it in the sweet spot on the quest 3 lol it only takes a second to get in the sweet spot so upgrading isn’t worth it.
Spot on review , I got 1.25hrs on the V3 Ouclus and the tracking was unbearable while playing Walkabout mini golf and Contractors are the 2 most played games I play . I sent back the V3 yesterday and verified very disappointed in my experience with something that didn't live up to the hype.

dude thanks! No, so many kiss up to meta. What I can't seen to find out is when playing PC games.

Is the same? You know what I mean? Thanks man
So you say that it's not a viable purchase for 2022 and maybe 2023 but.. how? There literally isn't anything better for the price to performance/feature set.
It's definitely not perfect. But there is a considerable jump in MANY things compared to the quest 2. I feel like it's been a long time since you tried the quest 2 if you think the comparison is that close.
We’re in 2023 man, you’re losing your mind lol
lol trash review, i got my quest 3 and its amazing, worth every cent... I come from quest 2 and its a clear upgrade. You are just riding the antimeta train. And check your eyes please if you can not see a difference between quest 2 and 3.
I completely agree. Only thing missing from Q3 is comfort upgrades, and that will be available from 3rd party soon. I find the VR experience much better with Q3, and I've been using Q2 since launch.
Yeah anti meta yet I’ve bought every vr headset they’ve made since 2014 you’re an actual bot. Let me guess your mom gave you lunch money and you spent it on the quest 3? 🥴🤣

Really wondering if the ram and cpu don’t bottleneck or games slow down with the graphics overhaul and greater amount of pixels.
Very good point I don’t know myself
Im so happy to discover that im not the only one who has said the same sentiments about the Quest headsets. The OLED display was something i always mentioned on any platform when talking about the Quest. For the life of me, why don't they put it back. It's killing my games.
I upgraded to the q3 from a rift S and doing wireless vr with virtual desktop now, simply blown away by how beautiful the display is in every game I jump onto!
Huge leap forward have fun
So for both the controls and the grainy cameras, they wanted to keep cost low and at $500 or $650 for what you get they managed it. The pro controllers don't just have cameras they also an xr2+ Prosser in each. Those are expensive. The camera image I'm sure will get a bit better with software upgrades, but if you want clear HD image pass through go get an apple headset. They used FHD cameras and because of that the are around $3k I think last I saw. All that said I agree the battery sucks and I was not pleased to see only 71GB available on the 128 version. Nearly half storage is operating system. For a system that size they should have started with 256gb.
Yeah 256 should have been the minimum. That’s a difference of $10-15 max per headset.
Honestly from what I’ve heard on Reddit and some others, the quest seems to do much better in natural light as opposed studio light, so I’d reccomend trying to go out and see if window light or just natural softer lighting is better
Hi, i didn't saw the whole video, i'm Just at half of It, but overall i didn't hear any type of "issue" that might want me to change idea, so, would u (or anyone that Will see this comment) suggest me to buy a meta quest 3, or buy the meta quest 2 instead?

Thank you for your honest review!!!
I trust myself and q3 is miles ahead of q2
How so? “Because it has AR” ? 🥴
@BeyondtheBox1 If you're extremely picky about certain things, expect perfection, or don't notice things like the frame rate and graphics limitations of the Quest 2, then sure, the Quest 3 is barely an improvement.
Personally though, I'd get a Quest 3 for the improved lenses, increased FOV, and the improved CPU alone. If you're into VR, then just those 3 things justify buying one IMO.
Almost everything is improved on the Q3 though, with the most notable exception being the battery life and microphone, which are a slight step backwards. As far as the battery is concerned, just to let you know, it's not because the battery is smaller on the Q3, it's actually bigger but not by enough to compensate for the higher power consumption of the Q3.
Id agree that the roughly 15% reduction in battery life and quality of the microphone are not great traits but neither are deal breakers for me because they can both be resolved with add on's. (backup battery and separate microphone)
So those are the two biggest issues for me, other than that, there are improvements across the board, even if in some instances there's only a slight improvement like with the new head strap being only a bit more comfortable or the new controllers. The touch plus controllers actually do increase the tracking accuracy a bit over the Q2 BTW.
Then you have the MAJOR improvements. I mentioned the new CPU and lenses above but there are quite a few other things that are greatly improved.
For one last obvious example, look at the pass through. You're right to point out that it has noticeable flaws but it isn't even in the same ballpark as the Q2s pass through so if someone is looking for an upgrade from the Q2s pass through and they don't have a ridiculous 3000+ dollars for an Apple Vision Pro, I doubt that many would feel as if the Q3 weren't a massive improvement over the Q2s and that's the point. To be fair, you have to judge the Q3 based on what your getting for the money. The Q3 is still a budget headset. If it's held to the standard of a 3000 dollar headset then of course you'll be disappointed but for most people the improvements will be obvious almost immediately if they're upgrading from a Quest 2.
Personally I love the quest 3 over my quest 2 for a couple of reasons, mainly the lenses as the clarity is night and day difference, the other reason is the colour pass through, yes it's not amazing especially in lower lighting conditions but infinitely better than q2 and usable now. The ultimate question would be, is the q3 worth £180 more than the q2? IMO I say yes.
@@Crunchy360 for me the mixed reality is something I wouldn't want to lose, but as a mainly pcvr person I think you're right. I never really heard great things about the pico so avoided it. I only got the 128gb model of the quest 3 and am happy enough coming from quest 2, I don't agree with the hate as coming to a q3 feels like a huge step forward. If the pico 5 can trump MR and still have display port I'll jump to that (if rumors turn out to be true).
It’s worth maybe $400
It's well over £180 difference. On Black Friday period Currys were selling the 128Gb Quest 2 with elite strap and a carry case for £250 (and I got a 7% discount on top of that due to company discount). A Quest 3 is £480, Elite Strap is £70 and a third party carry case would be at least £25. So actually it's £575 which is £325 more than the Quest 2 deals that were around. But if you just consider the entry level headsets at current prices the Q2 is £250 and the Q3 is £480. So that's £230 more. Nearly double.
Simple solution to the battery issue by another couple batteries and have them charged up and ready to swap out. That’s a simple thing to do.
If you're buying a new Quest 2 you're a fool
I got one for $100 used.
The brutal honesty did it for me. FOLLOW. Def gonna watch more videos
Thank u for this btw. I’m watching videos to find the best vr headset. Do u have any experience with the hp reverb or htc vive pro 2?
No I don’t but you can’t go wrong with a quest 2. Best I could recommend for the price. Quest 3 is a little too expensive
Can you tell me what's the difference between 3 and 2 or which is better 🤔
I have the Quest 3. It is amazing! 120 Hz, high quality visuals and mixed reality, controller and hand tracking is very good too. I am blown away by the possibilities of that thing.
All of this is on the quest 2 except mixed reality…
@@BeyondtheBox1 Sure but the Quest 3 has better screen resolution and a stronger processor. These things do matter when it comes to a better quality output. Therefore i went with the Quest 3. It was kind of a no brainer for me.
If you connect your quest 2 to your pc for games like me you get best graphics allready then stronger processor becames a disadvantage because of the weak battery..And it seems it cant keep up even with charging at the same time now this is a certain reason for not to buy it for me.. I use it very long hours and when i plug it to a wall charger i need it to be alive..@@Melodias102
100% worth the upgrade from my quest 2. The only complaint I have had is the horrible stock heads-trap so I’ve ordered a bobo head-strap
Liked and subscribed because of your honesty.
hi i don't know what i should buy if i should buy the quest 2 or wait until i have the money to buy the quest 3, i've seen that there's the pico 4 too but i don't really know what it's worth i plan to use the headset with my pc and in standalone but mainly pc could someone help me make my choice
If you don’t have a quest 2, buy quest 3. If you have the 2, keep it.
Wow, i feel exactly the same, it was totally overhyped and i will no longer trust the major influencers! I wished i waited, to me its almost embarrassing.
Yeah it’s such a lie, such a marketing scheme. These CZcamsrs LIED.
Get Warplanes WW1 and play on both Q2 and Q3 . Fist encounter is fun
Hopefully they'll improve the battery life and other problems (like the storage I think) of the q3 because I want one but I don't want to spend 500 dollars+ just for it to die in less than 2 hours
@@Crunchy360 I was talking about resolution. Strap is comfortable for me, just hard adjusting it. I ordered the popular Bobovr M3 head strap $50. Q3 Battery can and has lasted almost 2 hours, it depemds on how much you use pass through with 3rd camera. Again the Bobo strap has battery packs. Quest Pro $1,000 for 30% less pixels, only 90hz, no depth sensor, lesser color pass through, no auto bordering and is being fazed out. $500 vs $1,000 yo math is distorted
They've improved battery life adding a downgrade option. I have mixed feelings. I feel meta let us down with software. Nothing new at launch. Never trust the reviewers who are under meta's thumb. I like it but until we get a good reason it's too close to the q3
I dont know about you but mine is very comfortable. Way better than quest 2 in every way. I give my headset to my friends and they also agree with me. Great headset and very good upgrade from my quest 2. I think person to person the experience is different. Also, if you have bad experiance with this headset, this does not mean this headset is bad. So in my opinion your review is very personal and mostly says bad things about quest 3 and prize quest 2.😅
Most people say it’s uncomfortable so maybe your face is lucky
@BeyondtheBox1 ya, maybe 😄
Honestly (in my opinion) this is a upgrade to my psvr
But I'm still concerned about the battery life and storage capacity but the eye and face tracking won't really matter to me mostly because I just want to play games like contractors, B&S etc and i wont really notice it but either way it'll still be an upgrade to me
I never bought\used the meta's headsets (besides the q1 but that wasn't mine) so hopefully I can get the best experience from the vr headsets
It's horrible for me. Cannot believe VR cover didn't release a facial interface with Pu leather cover at launch of the Quest 3. It's basically unusable without that.
@@BeyondtheBox1 You're on a tear today lol.
does the q3 can have multiple screen monitor or smth like that natively ?
I think so
i've had the htc vive for 4 years now, and it is very big and bulky with a big wire, and I move around from house to house alot, so with only being able to use my vr at one house, is a downside. So I think upgrading to the q3 and being able to transport it easily is going to be amazing.
I have q2 and the q3 is a massive improvement.I can work easily 6 hours with the q3 on with the q2 in two hours i had headaches.the q2 if you dont put it in the exact precise position the view is not scarp at all.
How do you work for 6 hours, while the battery only lasts 2...
@@MegaGovert I assume he uses powerbank batteries capable of 22.5 watts or more. The problem with the Quest 2 batteries is that even the best ones only give 15 watts (5V 3A) and that's less of what the Q3 consumes, so the headset keeps discharging, and eventually, dies. I have to test it yet, but in forums say that a 22.5 watts (9v 2.5A) is able to keep the Q3 alive.
@@Crunchy360 INIU Power Bank 22.5W PD3.0 QC4.0 10000mAh 22.53€ at Amazon, and tested today. Q3 at 33% battery, I plug the power bank and the power on the headset grows to 71% battery... when I left for dinner with a 16% still left on the Power Bank, I'm very happy with it. 😃
The battery alone is an issue. They should have put the battery in the head strap and made it bigger and the strap standard.
@@MegaGovert easy I use immersed and I use the charging cable
At least when taking into consideration the price of the Beyond or the Crystal, I feel like it's the best upgrade option for me. I own a Rift S and don't care for the Oculus apps, only PCVR. For under 800-1000€, it seems to me that a Quest 3 + link cable is my best option. However kind of afraid by the Link compression, cable or wifi.
I just bought a Pico 4. With my basic wifi5 router it is unasable. Now waiting for cable. My next headset will must have a display port and no batteries!
You can adjust the bitrate. You got compression? Turn up your bitrate. I play my games at 250mbps bitrate and... Well, Both my pico 4 and quest 2 have zero compression at all. maybe tiiiiiny bit of graininess in some VERY specific scenes, but its just for a moment. with vietual desktop, you can go up to 400mbps wireless, if you got a good router.
@@umbratherios5614 Compression is fine, but framerate laggy and choppy when sudden moves. Frametime is 7-8 ms in steamvr. You need a pricy router, but even then you might experience hiccups I guess...

I'm about to buy one but I cant decide! I will mainly use it for gravity sketch (3d modelling) some blender vr views, and probably will play no mans sky or whatever vr game I've got on steam, I'm not interested in meta's own games at all. the thing that concerns me is the FOV of quest 2. since there isnt a place I can test it out, I'm only as biased as youtube-reddit reviewers, and I think I trust you more than others after watching your videos, so please help me to decide...
Thanks for not bullshiting us. But how does it compare to a 4k tv when ur using it as a monitor or movies? Can it replace a physical screen?
Okay so for watching MOVIES and videos yes I absolutely LOVE my quest 3 I just got out of it - gaming is still not there yet but that’s based on the developers slow productivity. That’s why I said wait to buy it til the games all get updates! I just deleted the walking dead part 2 to save space until the Q3 update drops cuz I’m not gonna play it until it gets released.

your comment looks like someone spilled "."'s everywhere
I actually havent had many battery issues. Yes out of the box of course its going to be bad, but after a few days i noticed it did get noticably better.
Tracking wise, the only issue i have is that if you hold one controller in front of the other the further controller loses tracking. This is only an issue in fps titles. Maybe ill get quest pro touch controllers though.
I cant lie even with the pretty grainy and somewhat muted passthrough, first encounters sold me on the idea of mixed reality. I had fun with it, my family had fun with it, and i still play it from time to time
As for the faceplate, i like the material, it makes it a lot less sweaty, but the head strap puts a lot of weight on your forehead. Im getting a bobovr head strap though.
As for games, any text is so much more readable, and small details are more clear. But it is still very similar to the quest 3.
I did notice however that the UI is a LOT less laggy than on the quest 2 so thats kinda expected but still nice.
I like using my quest 3 for simply watching content too, especially if im pretty tired atm
Overall i like my quest 3. My quest 2 i gave to my siblings so we can play together, so its not like that went to waste either.

Thanks for the review. I have had the opposite experience - most of the "influencer" or unboxing reviews I've seen have said it's a "mediocre upgrade" or been kind of disappointed by it, whereas the vast majority of consumer reviews I've seen have positive feedback (especially those who directly compared the Q2 and Q3 because they own both). I think maybe VR is like anything else - subjective in many ways. As a first time VR user, I have nothing to compare it to but I decided to buy the Q3 even though the Q2 was on sale. The raving reviews on Amazon, YT and Reddit sold it for me.
I had the 2.. just got the 3 a week or so ago. Love the 3, well worth the upgrade.. this dudes got a bone to pick for some reason apparently.
Not to mention after seeing some of his unwarranted ugly behavior with the commenters here on his video.. he definitely comes across as having a problem. Lol
@@shogunjo this guy is living in my comments replying to anyone he doesn’t agree with lmao

Wait a few weeks and then buy a secondhand Quest 3 for 350.

I am still on Quest 1 with the OLED screens using airlink to pc without any trouble. Would Quest 3 be worth the upgrade? My guess is I must sacrifice OLED to get better resolution. Great review, subscribed!
yes but MAJOR UPGRRADE FROM Q1 TO Q3 ID DO IT BROTHA
Just get a 90° USB cable & a decent power bank.
Put it in your back pocket, run the cable up your shirt & over your ear, use a loop of tape folded over, so the cable slides through, but it's not sticky! (Or wrap around the strap, whatever is more comfortable 4you)
Then at around 25- 30% batter, plug in the powerbank & keep playing
Simples!
👍👍👍👍👍
Memory Foam helps, with comfort, on straps etc... I have the Quest 2 & 3... both have power banks & mem foam added, to parts of the straps with velcro straps, so they aren't stuck to the headset straps, & can be moved, for individual comfort 👍👍 Or strap the power bank, on the back of the head strap 😉
Comfort is a bummer, but the visuals are great. My BOBOVR M3 is in the mail, and I'm hopeful that it fixes this #1 issue in my book. I use my Quest 3 mostly for wireless PCVR using Immersed or Virtual Desktop. I love the Q3 lenses and can't wait until they are paired with 4K+ microOLED in future iterations.
I agree with all of that!! Hope I gained your sub and your trust! Check out my new video, it’s my girlfriend trying VR for the first time she went insane 😂
I have no reference of what the quest 2 was like or any of the oculus products. I tried the original htc vive and that definitely had the screen door effect. The quest 3 has good clarity for sure. I bought it for sim racing but didnt even realize how many random games there are for quest as well. Its fun to explore!
I have only owned a Quest 3. IT HURTS LIKE HELL. I ordered another headstrap yesterday, hoping for improvement in comfort. I bought 3 over the Quest 2 for the pass-through upgrades. You're right, it's grainy/ distorted and you can not really use your phone easily. I would like to have had more storage space, but couldn't stomach the price.
Same same same
Thank you, then I will be awaiting for the release of the quest 4 and hope to upgrade in one go to an awesome device.
How about this what would you say someone should look at when it comes to PCVR gaming? $1000 is enough but..... wait?
If you’re doing mostly PCVR then quest 3 128gb model is more than good enough
what is with people who don't have Q2 and want to get their first VR? should they also wait ~2 years for Q4?
If you have no headset this is the perfect time to buy one

Been waiting 8 years to invest in VR- thought the Q3 was my entry- had intentions of PCVR with it since people had no issues with the Q2-
only to find out that PCVR with Q3 is nearly impossible since the battery dies despite using Link Cable to connect to PC-
this is a deal breaker for me, and it feels like i was lied to since the Link Cable states "Dual Purpose: Stream and Charge"
I spent my savings on this device, and it doesn't even work as intended. I am extremely bummed by this situation and feel robbed.
Can it be plugged in so the battery won't die?
Yes. Use a PC link cable.
My vrp10 wireless earbuds are useless now. I can't charge and use the usb for charging dongle at the same time. I couldn't do this either on the quest 2 but lasted longer before needing to charge.
Requires allll new accessories to enjoy this
@BeyondtheBox1 I ordered one of those short type c splitter cables. Hopefully this allows me to charge from battery strap and use usb audio at the same time. Still waiting to get a bobovr conversion kit to I hard modded some Marshall headphones onto the bobovr m2 for quest 2 with 3.5mm jack. The Marshall headphones have audio jack on either earcup. The vrp10 earbuds would be better on warmer days.
Hi all, first off I would say the review is spot of for expert vr enthusiasts and if you already have a quest 2 it might be worth the wait.
That being said I have the original oculus, rift s, quest 2, and recently purchased the quest 3.
Out of the box no strap upgrades the quest 3 is way more comfortable than the quest 2 and the lens don't fog up lift the rift S. Coming from primarily pc vr on rift s, the quest 3 is an amazing upgrade and definitely worth it if you want some longevity out of your headset with all the AAA games coming out updated for the quest 3 not to mention Xbox game pass coming to meta. Your definitely going to want that higher picture clarity.
I would say for the average user the battery life is fine for the quest 3, comfort aside I don't see myself standing or being in vr for more than 2 hrs at a time without a break. That being said standing for more than 2hrs on a fps game or other active game is tiring and I often found myself switching to seated mode and plugging in to an outlet to extend my play sessions.
I felt the color pass through is really good, it isn't perfect by any means, however, I was able to read my phone and get things done around the house like make some coffee or just reach for things without taking the headset off, all you have to do while ingame is double tap the side of the headset to switch to pass through, really cool. The pass through is not grainy I would say more blurred and fish lens-ish, however I think this lends to a unique experience in mix reality where the clarity of the vr rendered world is better than real life in those modes really adding to the immersion of the experience.
I do eventually plan to upgrade to the elite strap but don't feel it's necessary atm for my face structure. The amount of articulation the quest 3 offers really allows the user to adjust the headset as necessary and for me I didn't have any distraction from light passing through in the nose area so I can't attest to that issue.
The next big thing I would like to say is buy your self a 5g link cable from Amazon for like 20 bucks if you have a pcvr ready computer, I was able to play half life alyx with no issues and it looked amazing on the quest 3.
To fix any updates on graphics for older games there are many you tube videos explaining how to install side quest and other applications to tune games for upgraded performance on the quest 3, takes a little bit of know how but like I said indepth tutorials exist on CZcams.
Over all I would say if you don't own the quest 2 the quest 3 is a no Brainer especially if vr in the past has made you sick or you think Xbox game pass without a Xbox or powerful pc might be something you are interested in. Plus right now you can get asgards wrath 2 free with purchase and will get the first asgards wrath free for pc app if you have it and than you can link and play the first 1 through your pc.
I purchased the 512g version as i saw some of the future vr titles are coming in at 50gb plus and the software already takes up about 20gb off the bat, but i can see how if you have faster internet you might not have an issue reinstalling games at your leisure.
Look forward to hearing any thoughts or debate with different experiences, also pavolv shack blows the steam version out of the water on quest 3, insane looking and fun with all the mids being developed!

I hope they keep making wired headsets because the problem I have with wireless is the battery being short and getting even worse overtime like with my Quest 2. They need to make headsets where the battery is removable and disposable and maybe add an option to go wired without a battery in the headset.
Because I wanna stay on vr for hours and hours nonstop

Apparently meta is currently working on a quest 3 lite ( quest 2.5 ) and is rumored to release some time this year in 2024 and is also rumored to be around 300-400 dollars USD. Its supposed to have similar specs and similar qualities as the quest 3 but at a much more affordable price much like how the quest 2 is supposed to be. My theory about it is that, the mixed reality features will most likely be downgraded, and the battery life will hopefully be improved from the quest 3.
