The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
*The Good*
Excellent visuals. The graphics are awesome and the VR is so cool. The MR (Mixed Reality) is really cool too. With mixed reality you can setup a DnD table overtop of your own table.
Large library of Games and Apps. Everything from Classic zombie games in full VR to MR and Zen apps to chill and relax you. Even have Duck hunt VR. Yes, someone made duck hunt in VR.
The sound and video quality are really good good. Watching movies, anime and TV shows is really fun. It's like being in a theater without the sticky floors and the "aww snap! Nuh uh and oh hell naw!" Lol.
Easy to setup and use. Easy to change the head strap if you want a comfier or cushion type one.
Adding a compatible battery power bank is easy and suggested.
*The bad*
Quick battery drain. This is my only real issue. The battery drains pretty quick and even faster when using MR.
But that can be offset by using a compatible battery power bank or a 20ft USB C cable.
*The Ugly*
I can't say much here. The price for many is pricey ands if you want to play games with your family, they each have to have their own head set. That can get very expensive.
Unlike a console, you can't plug in a second controller and just go. Only you can see what's on your screen. This is definitely more of a solo system or making online friends type system. But if you can afford it, I suggest getting two for a family.
*Bonus - The Awesome*
Emulation 😁
Installing Retro Arch is easy and with 512GBs of room, you can install lots of classic games and play them. I know you can do that on a PC or buy a retro pie, but it looks so cool right on front of you and looking like it's a movie screen.
With the help of SideQuest, you can install CX file explorer and then Retro Arch and copy your classic games from you PC to the Quest.
And lastly for anyone asking or maybe those who don't have the extra cash after putting out the funds for this device.
I can't recommend pirating, but a quick Google search for Meta and the opposite of mother can help you with that problem.

The sweet spot to get a clear image is much wider and easier to obtain with the Quest 3. The images are crisp and the 3D sounds are so much better. The days of dealing with fuzzy images of Quest 1 have become a past memory.
The slow and laggy response of the menu has become a thing of the past with the Quest 3 processor which is multiple times more powerful than Quest 1.
The game First Encounters demonstrates the ability of the passthrough cameras in future gaming. Although the passthrough cameras are not perfect with some distortion of colors and shapes. But chasing aliens around the living room makes you soon forget the imperfection of the cameras and the imperfections become a minor issue. The cartoony aliens look like they are really there with 3D sounds to match their locations.
Playing Vader Immortal clearly shows that even the games not optimized for Quest 3 still benefit from drastic improvements in optical and audio experiences. I have all three of the Vader Immortal and it is great to play them all over again in Quest 3. The visual is so much better with images looking smooth, clear, and substantially higher resolution.
The 40% slimmer headset allows much better weight distribution closer to the face resulting in a much more comfortable headset. I have heard that the Elite strap from Meta is one of the essential elements for comfort. But I found using my head strap foam pad that I bought for my Quest 1 works well enough for comfort.
I bought the 512 MB version as many of my old Quest 1 apps were worthy to use in Quest 3 which already took a big chunk of the memory. Video recording takes another chunk, and the newer apps can take multi GB with probably bigger apps that are coming which take advantage of the Quest 3's power. The 512 GB version also comes with a 6-month Meta Quest+ trial which I think helps to justify the cost. However, I wish they made a 256 GB version for about $575.
I don't have a Quest 2 to compare with but the reviews that I read tend to agree that Quest 3 is not just an upgrade but a generation above the Quest 2.
Quest 3 has clearly revolutionized Portable VR and Mixed Reality to a whole different level!
Disclaimer: I don't work for Meta and this review is based on my several hours of experience with the Quest 3. Hope it helps!
10/25/2023 Update: The front weight of the Quest 3 unit makes the faceplate press onto the face which is probably the thing I hate the most about the unit. But I think I have found the solution:
1. Halo Head Strap with a good posterior cushion (or attach a separate posterior head cushion).
2. Take out the faceplate (less immersive but so much more comfortable!).
3. Use a counterweight such as two small liquid ice packs (about 1/2 pound total) in a ziplock bag attached to the back of the head strap using a velcro strap.
It is almost like wearing glasses with the weight distributed onto a heavier cap.

The unit as a stand alone is even better than was expecting. The mixed reality stuff is really fun and the VR content is impressive. It’s one of the few things that have far exceeded expectations. The only thing we need now is 2 or 3 more of them so the family can play together. Maybe Santa will read this.

Tanto pra jogar, quanto pra trabalhar e fazer as tarefas do dia a dia.
Recomendo fortemente já comprar as baterias extras pq a bateria acaba bem rápido, principalmente no modo de realidade mista, mas dá pra se divertir bastante

Yo lo compré ligeramente más barato por una promoción, te recomiendo que busques el mejor precio ya que este producto comprado directamente en EEUU ronda los 8k MXN para 128gb y 10k para 512gb.
En cuanto a la entrega todo bien, el producto llega en una caja normal de amazon con apenas dos bolsas de aire para proteger la caja de los quest3, sin embargo en mi caso llegó perfecto, la caja no tenía abolladuras, golpes ni nada por el estilo.
El producto es el esperado, funciona perfecto, la batería dura realmente muy poco pero eso es algo normal en estos dispositivos. Ahora, si los compras porque esperas aprovechar al máximo el passthrough y esperas la calidad de los AppleVision Pro, te comento que te desepcionará, las cámaras son terribles, la calidad del passthrough es mala mala mala, sin embargo la experiencia de realidad mixta aún así vale mucho la pena. Te recomiendo revisar reseñas profesionales para saber si es el dispositivo adecuado para ti.
Recomiendo el producto y la compra, amazon es bastante confiable. Habrá que esperar a que nada falle y no tenga que usar la garantía o la devolución. Por ahora llevo un par de días con el dispositivo y estoy contento.

Yo lo compré ligeramente más barato por una promoción, te recomiendo que busques el mejor precio ya que este producto comprado directamente en EEUU ronda los 8k MXN para 128gb y 10k para 512gb.
En cuanto a la entrega todo bien, el producto llega en una caja normal de amazon con apenas dos bolsas de aire para proteger la caja de los quest3, sin embargo en mi caso llegó perfecto, la caja no tenía abolladuras, golpes ni nada por el estilo.
El producto es el esperado, funciona perfecto, la batería dura realmente muy poco pero eso es algo normal en estos dispositivos. Ahora, si los compras porque esperas aprovechar al máximo el passthrough y esperas la calidad de los AppleVision Pro, te comento que te desepcionará, las cámaras son terribles, la calidad del passthrough es mala mala mala, sin embargo la experiencia de realidad mixta aún así vale mucho la pena. Te recomiendo revisar reseñas profesionales para saber si es el dispositivo adecuado para ti.

The passthrough allows me to go anywhere in my house and setup a massive boundary at any time. It's not very clear, but it's very useable. The videos you see posted of recordings from the headset are much more clear than the physical use of it. Performance wise, it's incredible. I generally play games directly from the headset and they work flawlessly. The battery life isn't great, it lasts a couple hours or so depending on what you're doing, but to be honest I can only use it for max that long as my forehead starts to hurt. Both of these issues can be fixed with a 3rd party battery strap, however I have yet to set mine up. The lenses never fog up, regardless of how strenuous the game I'm playing might be. The audio is very cool, it comes from tiny speakers in the strap of the headset that are funneled towards your ears. The quality is actually quite good and it doesn't disturb anyone around you much at all.
As for gaming via Steamlink. I've only tried it via wireless as of now, and have a very good router, but it does seem to work well. I have had a couple instances while playing HL Alyx that the quality drops and the movement glitches but generally it's been very playable.
Overall, it's a very worthy upgrade if you are a few generations back, no doubt. Looking back on it, the Quest 2 might have been more than enough for me, but truly the upgraded lenses and the passthrough feature has been excellent and frankly I use it more than I thought I would. Excellent device.
