Top Meta Quest 3/3S deals (US)
Now that Meta's Quest 3S is here, the price of the Quest 3 has dropped significantly from $649 to $499. It's an excellent VR headset, but now it's more affordable, which is a definite win. It also comes with the fantastic Batman: Arkham Shadow and 3-month subscription to Quest+ at no extra cost, which we think is exceptional value.
USE CODE QUEST75 to claim $75 of digital credit for Amazon.com The Meta Quest 3S is the best entry-level VR headset you can get. It comes packed with the same performance as its pricier sibling with the only real difference being it uses the same fresnel lenses as the Meta Quest 2, which means lower resolution. Otherwise, if you're looking to get into VR, grab this excellent bundle deal.
Meta Quest 3 games: deals from $8 @ Meta Horizon Store
Once you've picked up a discounted Meta Quest 3 headset, you'll want something to play (assuming you don't get hooked on Batman: Arkham Shadow!), and that's where the Black Friday sale on the Meta Horizon Store can help. There are game deals from just $4 in this sale, use coupon code BFCM24 to get these deals.
It's no secret that the Quest 3 and 3S don't have long battery life, but if you attach this comfortable, Elite Strap-like K4 Boost Battery Strap on, you can get up to 3 hours of additional battery life. Plus, it comes with enlarged rear support and thickened padding so you can play in comfort for longer.
From a pure budget perspective, finding a better bargain for a Quest head strap will be hard. This one, which has good reviews, features silicone support for a balanced fit, a 60-degree hinge, an adjustable headband for a custom fit and a lightweight strap. It's not the most feature-packed strap, but for the price, you can't go wrong.
If you aren't fussed about battery and just need an affordable yet comfortable head strap, you can't go wrong with this Zybervr Comfort Elite Strap. It comes with PU leather and memory foam cushioning, and is easily adjustable hinge and rotation button.
Need a place to put your Meta Quest while it charges? This Bioherm Charging Dock is exactly what you're after, and it even adds a touch of style with RGB lighting. This vertical stand will keep your space from being littered with VR controllers all while your headset gets a much-needed boost.
The Yoges Charging Dock offers a more simplified stand, but it also throws in two rechargeable batteries for your Quest controllers. That's stops the need for the inevitable replacement batteries, and you'll also get a nice setup to put your Meta Quest when it needs some juice.
Whether you're looking for a way to use your Meta Quest for hours on end without needing a charge or want to tap into that PC VR experience, you'll need a long enough Link Cable. That's where this Iniu Link Cable at 16 feet will come in handy, and it's going for quite the price. Be warned, though, the cable is quite thick.
For extra battery in a unique package, try out the JSAUX Battery Pack. It lays around your next while plugged in so it doesn't get in the way of movements, and offers up to 6 hours of extra playtime. A different way to enter VR for a hugely extended period of time.
If you enjoy playing golf in VR but find that swinging the controllers around doesn't deliver the same feel, you'll want to grab this adapter. It promises to offer weight similar to a real golf club and an excellent grip that looks like it would be on a club. With $10 off, it's worth trying to see if it takes the VR golf experience to the next level.
If you travel around a lot (or want entertainment while on a flight), it's best to grab a sturdy carrying case for your Meta Quest 3/3S. The Vori Case is as affordable as it is nifty, with lens protectors, cable ties, a place for your controllers and more in a compact, hard shell.
The Meta Quest 3 and 3S only have about 2.5 hours of battery life if they're not plugged into a power source. The PrismXR battery pack adds extra juice to Meta headsets with a claimed 3 to 6 extra hours. It is wearable and can be used to charge the headset if you're out and about and away from a convenient charging spot.
While the Meta Quest 3 and 3S can work untethered from your PC thanks to Air Link — which streams a feed via Wi-Fi — this bridge can help make the connection more stable, as it establishes a direct link, rather than going through your router.
Beat Saber is one of our favorite games for Meta Quest. It combines Dance Dance Revolution-like gameplay with swinging around a Star Wars-esque lightsaber. However, to truly immerse yourself in it, I recommend a set of handle extenders, like these bad boys for $17.
Half-Life Alyx is one of the best Meta Quest 3 games of the year and also one of the best VR games ever made. Best of all, it's seriously discounted for Black Friday. Download it now for just $19.
