Uh, so you’re stuck between the Quest 3 and the Quest 3S, huh? Honestly, it’s like choosing between two… I dunno, similar-looking sandwiches at a shop, but maybe one’s got a better filling. Bear with me.
Okay, so the Quest 3S is like the budget-friendly pal of Meta’s VR lineup. It’s got the cool VR and mixed reality tricks just like its cousin, the Quest 3. Same guts with the chipset and RAM (sounds fancy, right?). But—and here’s the kicker—they went all retro with the fresnel lenses. Yep, kind of old school. Not everyone’s cup of tea, especially if you’re picky about how things look.
Now, the Quest 3? That one’s rocking these pancake lenses. Pancakes… They’re not for breakfast, but man, they’re clearer and sharper—like switching from an old TV to HD. And they adjust every which way, handy for all us folks with different ways of seeing the world. Plus, it’s skinnier, feels lighter—maybe like wearing your comfy shoes instead of those clunky boots.
Oh, storage space, right. The Quest 3 packs a hefty 512GB punch. Meanwhile, the Quest 3S gives you either 128GB or 256GB, which could be fine—unless you’re a hoarder of apps and games like some people (no judgment here).
So if your wallet’s not crying, go for the Quest 3. But the Quest 3S won’t leave you hanging if you’re on a budget. Both do the job, just with a little twist.
