The Meta Quest 3 is the latest in the ultra-popular Quest series of wireless headsets. GameCentral has taken a look, and the verdict is that it is the best yet.
At £480, it is expensive in the current climate of economic hardship. But, compared to the competition, it is actually good value. Take the HTC VIVE XR Elite, for example, which is twice the price of the Meta Quest 3.
What sets the Meta Quest 3 apart from previous models is the intricate AR features. Apple's Vision Pro may have a hefty price tag of $3,499, but the Meta Quest 3 is a much more affordable option.
It is a major step-up from the Quest 1 and 2, and an even bigger leap from the original Meta Quest. The Quest 3 is powered by the same tech used for high-end phones, but it is also smaller and more comfortable to wear.
The controllers have also seen a major upgrade, with force feedback haptics and precise tracking. They are much smaller than before, so you don't need to worry about smashing them together. There are still some issues with hand-tracking, but it is much more reliable than other headsets.
The visuals have also seen a huge improvement, with 2064 x 2208 resolution per eye, and support for 120Hz frame rates. That is not quite as powerful as the PlayStation VR2, but it is a remarkable achievement for a wireless headset.
If you buy the Meta Quest 3 before January 27, 2024, you will also get a free copy of the highly anticipated Asgard's Wrath 2. This is a great bonus for such an impressive piece of hardware.
The Meta Quest 3 is not perfect, and there are still a few quibbles, such as an inadequate barrier for blocking out external light. But, overall, this is a remarkable headset and a major step forward for VR gaming.
Meta Quest 3 has arrived and it is the best wireless headset to date. The new headset has improved graphics, resolution, and AR features that are sure to please gamers.
It can be difficult to justify spending hundreds of dollars on a new piece of hardware during the current cost of living crisis. However, the Meta Quest 3 is a great value in the VR headset market. It is £50 cheaper than the PlayStation VR2 and twice as cheap as the HTC VIVE XR Elite.
What sets the Meta Quest 3 apart is that it is self-contained and does not require a console or PC to run. It offers unique features such as AR that are similar to the Apple Vision Pro, which costs an exorbitant $3,499.
The Meta Quest 3 is a worthwhile upgrade from the Meta Quest 2. It has a wider 110° field of view and support for 120Hz frame rates. Plus, the adjustable IPD helps to ensure a wider sweet spot, which means you don’t have to keep readjusting the headset to keep everything in focus.
The headset is smaller than the previous model and is less front heavy, which allows for a more comfortable fit. The Touch Plus controllers are excellent. You can pull the front section out further to accommodate those who wear glasses.
The Meta Quest 3 runs on a Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2, which is not as powerful as the PlayStation 5. However, it does offer a 2064 x 2208 resolution per eye, which is a 30% improvement from the Quest 2.
Overall, the Meta Quest 3 is a great piece of hardware and the games that are available for it are fun. It is currently available in two models – 128 GB for £479.99 and 512 GB for £619.99. If you purchase before January 27, 2024, you will get a free copy of the game Asgard’s Wrath 2.
The Meta Quest 3 is an impressive headset with great features and is a great value for money.
