Today I go over everything you need to know about the Quest 2 & Quest 3. From mixed reality, FOV, resolution, specs, the controllers, the content, and more importantly how much of that matters for you if you're looking to buy a VR headset in 2024. Check out my other videos for VR Tips & Tricks, Top 10's & News.

I do not own any of music, extra video clips images, chroma key, or sound effects used in this video. Or at least most of them, some stuff is mine.
My channel is about VR Content (obviously lol) I've covered many topics on this channel in the past such as PC Building, PC Gaming Knowledge, Gaming News. That can be CPM rates, Industry knowledge, Business knowledge, how to edit, how to build a gaming PC, budget or not. But VR is cooler so I'm probably gonna keep doing that.
I'm like the monkey you send into space for tests. I just come back with the results and give them to you for FREE.

IMPORTANT ADDED CONTEXT: A day before this video released Meta announced the first 2 Quest 3 exclusives. Batman Arkham VR & Alien VR. Both will be Quest 3 only. Meta is now finally going all in on a Quest 3 push.
not sigma
ok
Do a video on q3 vs index please, even if it's just a short
Yes I will subscrwibe
Why should I subscribe🤔
@GetHip You call your videos trash, yet you and TheMystical are the only 2 reliable sources of vr/ar info I have found
Yeah…
Yup, no ThrillSeeker here
them and thrillseeker fr
Alien: Rogue Incursion and Batman: Arkham Shadow that come out this fall will only be on Quest 3, just to let everyone here know
Yeah one of the reasons I’m upgrading, and it’s just a superior headset
if that batman game is anything like the one they did with iron man, then it will be more like a tech demo than an actual game
@@Skullpture1 nah we’ve already had a Batman game tech demo, it’s been so many years I doubt or at least they won’t do the same, hopefully this game has actual combat and not just detective work
Just got a quest 3 for $300 used :) its better than a quest 2 in every single way
300 dollars???
@SongStudios yep, Facebook Marketplace usually has really good deals, sometimes it's a little sketchy or like with my encounter, the seller is late to showing up or changes the meeting place/time. Thats why used gives you good deals lmao the headache and lack of returns
Nice pick up!
Someone got that quest 3 for free 99 then sold it to you
I own both. Quest 3 is better in most ways and overall its superior. But the Quest 2 has better controller tracking, longer battery life, and a more comfortable face gasket. Quest 2 also has brighter displays, and less binocular lense overlap effect. Quest 3 still blows it away with the pancake lenses, much better speakers, hd haptics, passthrough quality, and processor speed and graphics.
I don’t think anyone should buy quest 2 now that quest 3 has pancake lenses. The old lenses on quest 2 will hurt your eyes.
Really is hard to go back to.
@VRRat it's why I hesitate to play my quest 2
@@VRRatand the weight
The quest 2 was always a gimmick
@@kcchiefsproductions8687quest 3 has higher weight but a ton better weight balancing than quest 2 so it feels lighter but yeah it does feel lighter when using
i have a quest 2 and my friend has a quest 3. i have tried his quest 3, and yeah the visuals are better, but not enough to really say you should buy it over the quest 2, the only thing that really seemed to be significantly better is the passthrough which i was really jealous about not having
I needed this video yesterday 😭😭 spent the whole day choosing a quest 3. But atlwast thisll be some extra help
Bro they finally announced 2 quest 3 exclusives, being Alien, and batman. Quest 2 users will be missing out unless through pc. Dope video bros
Finally my $500 will be used to be more than just good visuals
“Unless through pc” no
These games won’t come to pc either that’s the thing
THEY WILL BE MISSING OUT either way
@@pracalt1051 batman meta exclusive, aliens meta 3, and steam only. So again aliens unless through pc
If you are going to invest time into it and use it, there's no question. It's comparable to consoles, you can buy an older gen console for casual, console specific titles and whatever current jazz is supported but you'll inevitably either buy or be wishing you had the latest if you invest enough time.
I have both and the 3 is good, but not worth it if you’re on a tighter budget.
Killer background tracks in this one man. As a classical violinist/TPB/vr enjoyer I feel so heard/seen/vred
It’s hella nice to be wondering something then finding a video released only 3 hours ago that exactly what I’m looking for
If your quest 2 controller tracking is spotty with fast movements use a higher voltage battery. That fixed the issue for me.
Good shit brother, thanks for the upload!!!
Quest 3 exclusives will soon be the norm just forget about the outdated quest 2
I love your music choices
The Quest 3 is more than my house tho😭
Wait until you discover a playstation
Where do you live where a house is less than a quest 3!!!????
cheap ahh house
@@aidannotfunny cardboard house
Bro what
great video! I play less and less games on my Q2, but I use Wander a lot and bigscreen has replaced my TV for years now. The increased fov sounds great but I really think I'll be waiting for the 4, my Q2 is awesome for what I use it for. :]
There’s gonna be a vr Batman game only for quest 3
Hey @GetHip. Can you or have you done a video on Quest 3 accessories, including audio experience enhancement?
Love your videos
You're funny and i like the way you edit, script and present your video and information. I subbed 👑
Bald gaming prediction I predict that GTA San Andreas will be a headset seller for the Quest 3 light
Great breakdown. I got both at launch for less than half price as I saved up reward points from my credit card. I can definitively say that Quest 3 is a significant upgrade over the 2. It almost feels like the 2 is a prototype in comparison. I actually still have my Q2 and pop it on from time to time just to compare and it's like, how the hell did I daily drive this for 3 years, but ignorance in bliss. I'm not shitting on the Quest 2 as it was great, especially during the peak of the pandemic, but if you can afford the 3, just go with it. As mentioned, devs haven't even taken full advtanges of it yet since they have to make apps work on both for now. Super excited for the future of VR.
I bought my quest 3 in January and now with the games coming out for it specifically is making it a good investment for me!
love your videos
I went with the quest 3 for me but I got a new quest 2 for my daughter, so we can play together. That's just how it goes tho. I had no way to tell if she would really like playing vr, but turns out she loves it
Thoughts on waiting for the quest 3s or whatever? Better to pull the trigger on the quest 2 now or wait and maybe get a better headset for only slightly more?
i wish i was able to get expensive things like you your a truly a legend
Would love to see deep dive into Project Babble 😊
I just want to say something about the controllers on the the quest anytime you hit the tracking ring your drift would get worst but due to the quest 3 not having those it’s pretty hard not to get drift but it’s still possible to get it 10:07
I have the original Oculus Rift but wear glasses. In the 7-8 years of owning it I've barely used it due to my glasses not fitting inside comfortably. Do either of the Quests 2 or 3 fit better with glasses? Have Meta allowed room inside for glasses? Thank you.
I don't plan to play any multiplayer(okay maybe vrchat and minecraft lol), but really want to draw in tilt brush, sculpt, play beat saber and generally include in my New Media university studies and gosh this video is perfect for such noobie in VR/MR/AR topic!! I didn't even know that q2 is going to die soon!!
What type of head strap do you use with the quest three just wondering looks comfortable
aint no way bro put caravan in this video (ily my pookie gethip)
my beyond's ipd is perfectly set to my exact ipd and is just the best
A few new games are Quest 3 only so it would be better to just get a Quest 3 plus you'll have better graphics and full colour pass through and it's way more comfortable and always gets new updates every month
Im getting the quest 3 for the pancake lenses and passthrough, and the important reason is to fix my pairing issues with quest 2
finally a new video
I'm worried of upgrading, i have too many accessories for my quest 2 and my bespoke correction lenses inserts won't transfer either. how are the pancake lenses for ppl with nearsightedness?
3 is a must if you are a sim racer with a setup and a 4090
I had a Quest 2 that, though I was really enthusiastic about it initially, I quickly grew to hate. The narrow field of view, poor ipd options, and overall uncomfortable way it set on my face led me to refer to it as my $400 headache machine. (I bought it when new) I even bought different facial foam and the pro strap, prescription lens addons, and it was still a rough experience. I have hope that the 3 would fix a lot of these issues, but I will need to demo it first.
What a delectable video👍
This came out just in time
I use my Quest 3 for all games but Beat Saber
My Quest 2 is pretty much just Beat Saber as I get pain holding the controller the standard way and I play using the claw method and sadly Quest 3 controllers you cant hold it in the claw method due to the sensors on the interface of the controller so your hand blocks them...
I still use my quest 2, and it is really worth it!
With my quest 3 I've had the same UI baggy stuff and controller tracking issues
Wait what!!??
There's a quest 3 lite comming?
and i just bought a quest 2 the other day 🥺
Yesterday I played FNAF: Help Wanted for first time on my friend’s VR and I gotta say having foxy tackle me and seeing toy Bonnie walk towards me was surreal.
I've heard that on launch, the mic was worse than the Quest 2, but after the v62 patch, it got way better. Is it now better or the same as the Quest 2 mic?
I have had my quest two for almost 2 years now and I have been trying to save up for a quest three but with little progress
I bought a Quest 3 as my first headset and then bought my little sisters a Quest 2. I honestly think first time users should get the Q3 and see the full color passthrough and smooth menus. Just from setting up the Q2 for my sisters, I got a ton of lag that made me want to return the device. My advice to first time buyers: Get the Q3 for a proper first VR experience. If you don’t like it then Meta has full refunds on returns.
What VR Cover do you use?
What if you already have the q2? Is the upgrade worth it?
BRO YOU NEED TO UPLOAD MORE RECENTLY!!
Don't have VR right now. My wife is currently looking at the Q2 for my bday. I have a racing sim in my basement. Should I go for the Q3 if I'm plugged in and stationary?
So im a massive Cheapo, would it be possible to modify my current quest 2 3rd party strap to fit on the quest 3?
There are adaptors or whatever theyre called that you can probably 3d print but i am not sure
love the whiplash ost
That's some good advice for people who don't have money to burn and who are new to vr and not sure if it's for them. The quest 2 is a great starting point at nearly a third of the price and you won't miss thaat much, besides pass through maybe. It can also hold you over while you wait it out for the quest 4 if you can since i'm sure the leap in specs, features and value will be a lot better
Edit: I didn't realise the quest 3 had such a big fov bump. The lenses and increased fov alone might be worth choosing the quest 3 over the quest 2. Even as a first time headset. That's not even considering slightly higher resolution, pass through and now exclusives. I might've got the quest 3 sooner had i known about the fov bump which is rarely ever mentioned anywhere
İ got quest 2 for now , i am gona save money for quest 4 when it comes or any other good headset.
I hate to see when people are complaining that the quest 3 is $499 for 128gb and $649 for 512 gb. where i live the 128gb version is around $640 and the 512 gb version is around $815... so the cheapest option here where i live is almost as expensive as the expensive option in USA...
Where do you live
@@cdd- Sweden. But its also that expensive in some more countries
People complain because a 1tb m.2 SSD is $80 so why are they over charging that much for the upgrade
@@isacwe0847because they use a different currency the price you pay is equel to theirs
No sign of the Quest 2 pricedrop yet in our gudsförgätna country, I suppose. Tbf it's best to sneak over into Finland for a quickie and buy it in Euro, if you get cheap tickets you will profit last I compared Elgiganten prices to their Finnish equivalent.
Can you mod the quest 3 like the 2? I'm only interested in the 3 because that Batman game was just announced
So, new Batman VR is coming exclusive to Quest 3.
This greatly fascinates me, as while it's clearly just a business decision, I wonder how they'll take full potential of the Quest 3 that even the Quest 2 isn't capable of, IF they do go that far.
I'm also curious how the gameplay and general game design will work for a Standalone VR headset. Hopefully better than Arkham VR, since that was more to look pretty.
i think the best option right now is to buy used quest2 and wait for quest 3 lite and then upgrade maybe... because where i live quest 3 starts at 600€ and you can get used quest2 for 120-140€
I have not had an issue with the ipd slider on any headset, it doesn't make a difference when I change it
caravan never gets old
i don't always play gtag. so i am considering switching. as i also play..
half life alyx
bonelab
boneworks (yes. i do play both bone games)
Rec Room
alot of other great games.
even sometimes Shave N Stuff and Pets n Stuff
Blade and Sorcery.. THE LIST GOES ON
hey ive just swapped to a kiwi strap and broke the face gasket lol
I have a Quest 3 and enjoy it very much. And yes you should go with a Quest 3 because games and support are going more for the Quest 3 now. I feel they are selling the Quest 2 head sets so low is because they are trying to get rid of this product line pretty soon.
There are supposed to be newer lower cost Quest 3 head sets which will take over instead of the Quest 2.
So this is just my opinion, but that is kind of the way I see Quest products are going.
Take care.
Hopefully Meta does make new headsets every 3 years but we don’t know yet since the quest 1 and 2 weren’t owned by Meta at the time
can you use quest 2 controllers on the quest 3?
brooo how do you get that ui i have updated my vr and dont have it
Ill wait for quest 4. not dropping 450 on a quest 3 even tho i can afford it, lt just doesnt seem a big enough jump from quest 2 when the clarity dont really bother me. Maybe if it was lighter more comfortable with eye tracking, full field of view and able to play games like gta5 I would
Im was gonna get a vr but jot sure wheather to get the 2 or
Me too, i know meta wouldnt announce quest 4 as like 700 dollars its gonna be arouns 500 or probably less. And its gona have better stats, its already been 6 months after quest 3 i dont think it will take 3 years again for quest 4. So i just bought the quest 2 and ill save up money for quest 4.
@@NvLock well im tight on money rn so i might just get quest 2 i saw that ghost of tabor and i wanna play it lol and i dint even realize quest 3 been out half a year
@@ryanmcmurray8711 its actually 8 months i was wrong,, if released in october 2023 so its 7 months now.
Why was your ui different on the quest mine is the same as the quest 3 and it doesn't lag when i try to open it mid-game
did anyone notice that the quest 3 is brighter in the center of the screen?
(i noticed that when i switched from the quest 2)
whats the quest 3 lite????
I used to play expert + on eatsaber on the quest 1 and I broke the straps and kept throwing my controllers so I was lagging
But I have a DK2? What should I do?
My UI buttons are fine on quest 2? 6:40
Used quest 2 for a week and sold it gave me a headache every time i used it hopefully the 3 is better on the eyes
Just buy the 2 caus it is good overall and quite cheap for the experience it gives.
If you are not short on money go for the 3 for the better image quality.
If you aim for pcvr the quest 3 will probably save you some frustration cause the quest 2 still gives jagged edges everywhere,
The mixed reality thing I see it as a gimmick right now, I wouldn't make any decisions based in that alone.
Can u use this without a pc
Never had a vr so idk if I need a pc to play or not
Yes
Have both and without watching, just get the Q3. It's leagues above the 2. They've finally gotten the graphics and immersion to a believable level where you truly get lost in the games and apps. No screen door affect, much sharper textures and higher fps. The quest games optimizer for $10 is a must, brings this things performance equal to high end pc vr setups, proven by the fact games like contractors vr virtually have zero players anymore on pcvr and quest 3 servers are filled. Nobody feels the need to play their pc anymore, because the graphics aren't much better now and virtually zero latency makes the experience so much better playing directly from the device.
I thought this video was released a year or so ago and then million dollar baby hit me😭
im waiting for my birthday which is in 6 days and hopefully i will get the meta quest 2 now i kinda regret that but at the end i was like phew but atleast i know what im choosing (oculus quest 2) because i dont like it too much when my parents dump too much money on me
quest 2 should be fine if im only playing roblox right?
I have both a quest 2 and 3 why did I watch this?
well nice video , as newbie i wanted have for wile so bought main quest 3 512 at 465 pounds as am in uk ,as my tablet 64gb and phone 128gb is full so hard drive i thought be best have more so future proofing it ,......i will buy new bobo new headset with spare battery
In terms of games, I use my Quest 2 exclusively for PCVR games, does the Quest 3 improve that much over the 2 when it comes to PCVR?
nope
@@cicciograziani6697 Thanks for the reply
@@ParanoidThalyyMVS better use the extra money for the gpu and games
@@cicciograziani6697 My graphics card is pretty good already, I upgraded from a 1080 to a 3070 last year, should look into getting more games though.
how many steam vr hours do you have? I have 3074.... I need to go outside.
Just got a quest 2 2 weeks ago
how is it? I got mine a couple months ago and I have 0 regrets, so awesome
Should i buy the quest 3 for 510 usd or the quest 2 for 295 i am from india so price different i researched any area in india price for quest 2 is 295 i don't know why i will only require the headset for 6 months after that not much usage what should i do should i buy the 3 or 2 because i will only use for 6 months after i will ve busy for 4 years thats why
2 lol
After using the pancake lenses I can't go back
huh right before i bought a quest 3
the meta quest 3 is good but in my country and quest 3 is 1000 and the quest 2 499 i cannot spend 1000 dolars on vr headset
