The Meta Quest 3s virtual reality headset is on sale as part of Amazon Prime Day<\/a>, and it’s still in stock even now as we’re more than half way through the event. The 128GB model is down to $249<\/a>, which is $50 off, and the 256GB version now costs $329<\/a>, which is a discount of $70. These are both record-low prices. It’s also worth noting that the 256GB model comes with a digital copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This made our list of the best virtual reality headsets<\/a> and it’s the perfect entry point for budget-conscious consumers. For the uninitiated, the Quest 3s is a pared-down version<\/a> of the flagship Quest 3. It looks nearly identical to the OG model and keeps the same hardware specifications. It boasts the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor and 8GB of RAM.<\/p>\n

Meta did have to cut corners on the lenses a bit. The 3s doesn’t have the nifty pancake lenses of its more expensive sibling, but the Fresnel lenses get the job done. It also ships with the same Touch Controllers, which we found to be light and comfortable. The joysticks feel smooth and accurate and the buttons are responsive.<\/p>\n

This can run all of the software that the Quest 3 can run, so newcomers will have access to a robust catalog of games and experiences. The only major downside is that the 3s lacks a headphone jack, so folks will have to plug in a USB-C adapter for more immersive audio. I highly recommend doing this. The external speakers are fine, but VR is all about total immersion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Meta Quest 3s virtual reality headset is on sale as part of Amazon Prime Day, and it’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":935,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[522,519,518,3,169,1161,520,521,74,515,179,509,180],"class_list":{"0":"post-934","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-virtual-reality","8":"tag-commerce","9":"tag-engadgetdeals","10":"tag-gear","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-prime-day","13":"tag-primeday","14":"tag-shopping","15":"tag-streamshopping","16":"tag-technology","17":"tag-thebuyersguide","18":"tag-virtual-reality","19":"tag-virtualreality","20":"tag-vr"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/934","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=934"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/934\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=934"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=934"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=934"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
