Meta Quest 3S vs. Quest 2: Uncovering the Best VR Experience of 2024 And Must-Have Accessories like the BOBOVR S3 Pro

The much anticipated Meta Quest 3S offers the virtual reality (VR) community one of the most accessible avenues to enjoy powerful imaginative experiences. It's also one of the most affordable ways for newcomers to get into VR, given the steep prices of competing devices like the Apple Vision Pro and Valve Index. Below, we delve deeper into the Meta Quest 3S and the many accessories you need to know about.

 

Meta Quest 3S

 

Meta Quest 3S is an affordable mixed-reality device that's a great entry point for new users. At only US$299.99 for the 128 GB base model, consumers eager to try out VR but were put off by the high prices of competing devices no longer have an excuse. Furthermore, it's a reasonably future-proof device due to the Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset and Adreno 740 GPU, ensuring it has enough juice to run current and forthcoming games.

 

And since we're on the subject of games, the Meta Quest 3S has an extensive range already available:

 

● Alien: Rogue Incursion

● Assassin's Creed: Nexus

● Batman: Arkham Shadow

● Blade & Sorcery

● Bonelab

● Breachers

● Demeo

● Medal of Honor VR

● Real VR Fishing

● Red Matter 2

● Resident Evil 4

● Star Wars: VI

Meta Quest 3S vs Quest 2

 

Here’s a quick rundown of the key specifications of the Meta Quest 3 and Quest 2 (Meta no longer offers this device for sale):

 

Meta Quest 3S VR headset

 

Prolonged VR gaming sessions may cause stress on the face, around the cheeks, and parts of the head. While the Meta Quest 3S has an ergonomically built VR headset, it can still benefit from a few improvements. After all, the device is meant to provide approximately two hours of playtime on a single charge.

 

But if you're a core VR enthusiast, your game sessions will be much longer, so you'll require additional comfort. That's where the Head Strap for Meta Quest 3S Flippable Headband VR Headset comes in. This headset accessory includes upgraded cushioning for comfort and pressure relief. Also, it has a reinforced strap and better weight distribution, so you'll never have to cut your game sessions short.

Meta Quest 3S case

So, wouldn't it be great if there was an accessory that could extend battery life while providing additional comfort? The good news is that such an accessory already exists. TVCMALL proudly stocks the phenomenal BOBOVR S3 Pro Battery Strap with a 10000mAh Replaceable Battery Pack.
