I’ve being using VR for about 9 years now and the new meta3 is so enjoyable and exciting to use. The days of old rollercoaster videos are over and now we are immersed in amazing stories and games. I’ll visit with family in VR and watch movies with friends. My wife and I workout now in Les mills combat game. This has been worth it for me.
Had for two weeks and already has a dead pixel. Will be contacting Meta for replacement or repair. For the price there should t be any issues. Also doesn’t charge from the elite strap with battery for some reason.
This is the 3rd VR headset that I've owned and so far the best one. The visuals were awesome and the wasn't bad either for an old dude to set up. The only thing I have to figure out is why the headset loses battery power while playing a game.
I was very surprised with the performance of the new headset. My son plays on it daily and is thrilled and said it is much better than the quest 2 and that the controllers are more comfortable. He has no complaints. The battery life is very good for the games that he plays.
1. During setup, sometimes there can be a problem with connecting to the phone before it updates or smth, not sure. Just remember that I encountered it and found somebody on reddit encountering it as well. 2. Great device for games, productivity and movies would benefit from OLED and at least 2.5k 3. Software-wise, I would love to see - native support for slime VR full body tracking - API to capture and store spatial data for conversion into virtual environments and 3d objects. I really want for the depth sensor to be useful in creative workflows, probably run some custom NNs with depth and stereo image input in real-time. - Discord on quest with streaming, if they ever release it.
4. I like that you can add furniture mapping of your room. Loved the passthrough, just good enough to avoid obstacles and perform simple tasks. Games in AR are impressive, but until they require player to interact with furniture, they might not be too interesting. Also liked the stability of it. Native hand and controller tracking is on point. Software is stable.
6. Exclusivity: - since many of the games are now multiplayer, I think such games would benefit from being also released on Steam, even if owned by Meta (maybe for a higher price), so that people with different VR headsets can cross-play. - I found no messaging apps except meta-owned facebook messenger. I do understand it is your decision, but it would be cool if there was an easy way to install telegram, for example.
Question: can I make focus distance like 20m or smth, for eyes to relax after looking at computer screen all day? Also, it is quite comfortable, but I hope you can increase max IPD on your next headset by 1-2 points at least.
Overall, I haven't encountered any serious problems as of now, the headset is great. Comfort 4 since you can upgrade head strap to make it 5.
I think it’s amazing! I bought it for my boyfriend but ended up using it way more than he has lol. The only downfall is how heavy it is, I’m excited to see as technology evolves and it become more compact. Other than that it’s so much fun!
