Meta Quest 3S: Diving into the Future of Affordable Mixed Reality Starting at $299.99

September 25, 2024

Meta, the leading technology company at the forefront of virtual and augmented reality, today announced the launch of its latest mixed reality headset, the Meta Quest 3S. Priced at an affordable $299.99 USD, the Quest 3S is designed to make mixed reality more accessible to a broader audience, without compromising on performance or quality.

The Meta Quest 3S: A New Era in Mixed Reality

The Meta Quest 3S boasts the same mixed reality capabilities and fast performance as its predecessor, the Meta Quest 3, but at a significantly lower price point. This new headset is perfect for those new to mixed reality and immersive experiences or for those waiting for a cost-effective upgrade from previous models.

Powerful Features at an Unbeatable Price

The Quest 3S offers a range of features that make it the best mixed reality device on the market at its price. Users can enjoy a cinema-sized screen for their favorite TV shows, a personal trainer that can accompany them anywhere, multitasking capabilities, gaming, and more. Compared to other brands, this price is really attractive.

Joining the Meta Quest Family

Following the successful release of the Meta Quest 3 last year, the Quest 3S continues to build on the company's commitment to creating powerful, consumer-friendly mixed reality devices. With full-color Passthrough capabilities, the Quest 3S allows users to blend the virtual and physical worlds seamlessly.

Enhanced Ecosystem and Future Plans

Throughout 2024, Meta has been working tirelessly to improve the Quest ecosystem, with the Quest 3S set to benefit from these updates from day one. The company has rebuilt Meta Horizon OS for spatial computing, offering better support for essential 2D apps like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. They have also improved spatial audio and Passthrough's contrast and color, making the experience more realistic and immersive.

Looking ahead, Meta plans to expand Travel Mode to work on trains, support for using the headset while lying down, and continue to improve Meta AI on Quest. The "Hey Meta" wake word will also be enabled to invoke the AI assistant.

Privacy and Trust

Like all Meta headsets, the Quest 3S is built on a foundation of trust, with new features designed to protect user privacy and data.

Something for Everyone

The Quest 3S offers a diverse range of experiences for everyone. From catching concerts in Horizon Worlds Music Valley to enjoying front-row seats at performances by artists like Sabrina Carpenter and Doja Cat, the Quest 3S provides an immersive experience. Users can also flex their creativity with tools like Painting VR and Gravity Sketch, or relax in a dream home theater using apps like Prime Video, Twitch, YouTube, and Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta), plus Netflix with HD in Browser, all in the new Theater View.

Price Drop for Meta Quest 3

In addition to the new budget-friendly Meta Quest 3S, Meta is also dropping the price of the 512GB Meta Quest 3 from $649.99 USD to just $499.99 USD. The Quest 3 remains the top choice for tech enthusiasts and gamers, offering four times the storage of the baseline Meta Quest 3S, plus a 4K+ Infinite display featuring state-of-the-art pancake lenses and a wider field of view.

The Future of Mixed Reality

The introduction of the Meta Quest 3S is a significant step towards making mixed reality more accessible to everyone. Meta is excited about the future of this technology and invites you to join them on this journey.
