The only problem I have with this setup is the Battery draining way to fast.

They've removed most of the rough edges from the quest2. Especially happy with how they changed the PD settings since that was always confusing, and not having to deal with a glasses spacer is great. Resolution is now high to the point where I don't notice it.
This was a gift for my wife. The headset is great, but the headstrap is so uncomfortable she can only use it for 20-30 minutes at a time. And the battery is used up in less than an hour.

The pancake lenses were a great choice, they're a gamechanger. I wish the stock head strap did more to reduce discomfort, the triangle head cup design at the back was a step in the right direction but is still uncomfortable to use for long periods of time. The battery life is also subpar and I wish there was a 30 second warning for when the headset is going to die so it's not such a shocking experience. Both of these flaws can be mitigated and it is an overall great headset.
Feels nice with the center of gravity closer to your head. And the passthrough is nifty, but there doesn't seem to be much actual use for it. It does seem to have difficulty charging when connected to my PC, where my Quest 2 does just fine, which is my biggest concern.
Also, you have a method to connect to wifi using a QR code on your phone....but you still have to input the wifi password with the phone. What's up with that?
The Quest 3 is comfortable, fast, and fairly easy to set up which are all great to have! There are few downsides to it however:
1. Battery life is really tiny, I had to buy an Anker Battery pack with 24,000 mah to supply enough power to VR Headset to last long enough to my enjoyment.
2. AI for Hand/Finger Trackings are borderline impractical, because it is so narrow on field of view. I highly suggests selling external webcam to boost tracking, I think this does have potential.
Looks great! Improved lenses, better display, weight distribution feels much better sitting closer to your face.
worst thing about it is the battery life. I play while on charger(2.4A). Will still drain the battery. About 2 hrs on battery, goes to about 5 hrs on cable(assuming the battery is at 100%).
That said, I am happy with my purchase and I believe battery life will improve over time as software updates optimizes use.
