Meta Quest 3S: This is the Quest 2 successor
Meta Quest 3S will be released on October 15 and succeeds the popular Quest 2. The new standalone headset offers a lot of technology at an affordable price of 330 euros for the 128 GB version. In terms of performance, the Quest 3S is on a par with the significantly more expensive Quest 3, as the chipset and RAM are identical.
The Quest 3S uses Fresnel lenses instead of pancake lenses, has a slightly lower resolution and a smaller field of view than the Quest 3. The cheaper headset also makes compromises in terms of design and has a more bulky profile.
In terms of mixed reality, Quest 3S is on a par with its big sister, at least on paper. A practical new feature is the action button on the underside of the headset, which can be used to switch between VR and MR.
The bottom line is that the Quest 3S is a real value-for-money hammer that doesn't have to hide behind the Quest 3 in many respects.
Exclusively for Quest 3S, Meta offers a new, breathable face insert that is particularly suitable for motion-intensive VR games and VR workouts. Otherwise, the headset is compatible with the majority of Quest 3 accessories, including the Elite strap, the carrying cases, the link cable and the charging station.
