The Meta Quest 3S<\/a><\/strong> VR headset with 128GB of storage is $296.79 (about $53 off) at Amazon<\/a>. This is Meta\u2019s entry-level VR headset, which launched back in 2024<\/a> for $299.99 before getting a price increase this year to $349.99<\/a>. So it\u2019s not exactly the most exciting deal, but it\u2019s about as good as you\u2019re likely to find these days for a new unit.<\/p>\n

The base model Quest blends a bit of the higher-end Quest 3 and older Quest 2 for a Goldilocks-style compromise. Like other Quests, it\u2019s a standalone unit that operates wirelessly \u2014 until it\u2019s time to charge it, of course. It plays a wide selection of games from the Quest store, like Batman: Arkham Shadow<\/a><\/em> and Supernatural<\/em> (once it relaunches<\/a>), and if you don\u2019t mind some added latency, you can wirelessly stream Steam games from your PC.<\/p>\n

Meta Quest 3S<\/h3>\n
If you bought a Meta Quest 2, you\u2019re a prime candidate for the Quest 3S. It\u2019s a faster, more comfortable VR headset that runs the same chipset as the pricier Quest 3. While its screen resolution hasn\u2019t improved, nearly everything else about the hardware has. Read our review<\/a>.<\/div>\n
