  • Anyone excited or have opions of the upcoming Quest 3S ?

Personally i was gonna upgrade from my Quest 2 just for the colour passthrough, but the headset doesn't have a 3mm headphone jack and this put me off straight away - I understand you can get headphones which plug into the USB, but i also charge my headset while in use,so not an option for me. Also the lenses probably needed to have a slight improvement over the Q2 lenses IMO.

it'd be nice to hear if anyone intends buying or opinions on this headset - seems a bit underwhelming, but probably good value for those who have never bought a VR headset

Our team is really excited about the upcoming Quest 3S! It’s looking like a great mid-range option for those who want solid performance without breaking the bank.

Quest 3S is compatible with glasses, which makes it much easier to use for people who wear them. I had corrective surgery a few years ago, but I still appreciate when companies think of glasses-wearers. 😎

Even though the headset doesn’t have a dedicated depth sensor, it still supports mixed reality and offers passthrough similar to the Quest 3, which is impressive for its price range.

    Silly-Sausage Oh, that was, of course, just my opinion 🙂 If anyone here on the forum is getting paid to promote headsets, let me know! Maybe @doublevr won’t mind if I pick up a little side gig 😆

    But the team is definitely excited, that’s a fact 🙂 We see it as an affordable and good device. As a service, we depend on what they release and at what price, so it’s great to see headsets being made accessible to users.

    Yes, with the 3S, they took a step back in favor of accessibility and lowering the price rather than focusing on innovation, so I understand your disappointment. But I’m sure we have plenty of great models ahead. As a child of the ’90s who remembers the Nokia 3210, I’m always in awe watching technology evolve.

        Great, glad you and the team are happy, have a nice weekend 🙂

        Any other individual opinions are welcome - i'm trying my best to behave )

            JangoSLR I’ll pass it on to the team, maybe someone will want to share their opinion as well 🙂
            Ok no worries, thanks for you're time, as i say have a lovely weekend

                JangoSLR I think you should do it like phone companies and try offering a plan that includes a slightly sponsored Q3 or Q3S with device payments spread out over the entire term. I am seeing people whose Q1s don't work anymore being really reluctant investing into a new headset while no one ever complained about paying for a new iPhone every two years 🙂

                  Due to the amazing improvements on the forum i can no longer correct my speilling mistakes - *Opinions
                  Thanks for making the improvements and the convoluted implications of these fantastic improvements, surely we need a captcha every 10 seconds to remind us of these improvements - 'Et Voila' , it's a mirracle 🙂

                  Any reason why you are making these 'improvements' , i'm not allowed to be negative and have to pretend like a kid

                    I completely understand your frustration; because of my profession, I can’t always say everything I think either. 😆

                    Alright, jokes aside. We hear you. There’s already a thread from DoubleVR about us looking for a new platform. Plus, the team is working on a solution for the CAPTCHA issue. Since this forum isn’t an in-house development, we’re somewhat limited in our capabilities.

                      For the price it looks great, I'll probably buy it just for the fuck of it, sum reviews who got to use it say it felt kinda cheap. But software works great!

                        Genuinely it looks amazing value for money and if it was my first headset, i personally would be tempted - at the end of the day if it works for you then that is a win, that's all that matters mate

                        Let me know how you get on if you end up getting it - Pros and cons etc

                        Can i ask what is your main headset currently - no worries if you don't want to say...

                          Definitely a good thing for the VR porn industry as people will now be able to experience PT for only $300. I'm sure this will reel in some new PT fans for life 🙂
