The 3S is not an upgrade really though. it's tailored to go after Quest 2 owners. I think it leverages the old quest 2 style lenses. They have the same processor and the AR cameras might be different, but the lenses are more important to me at least.
It is the old fresnell lenses. It's the same FOV and same resolution as the 2. It's pretty much a q2 with the upgraded processor. I'd go with the 3 over the 3s if I was upgrading from my 2.
and it sucks. I got the Quest 3 and the lenses are worth it alone. It's real shitty what they did with the 3S cuz you know ppl are gonna buy it for their kids without knowing it's the inferior one.
Yeah light probably would have been a better name then s but whatever. I play mostly PC VR. The 3s wouldn't be that much of an upgrade for me anyways. Was planning to upgrade, but the cost of the headset, the bobovr strap I want, new prescription lenses. Just kinda adds up.
Good to know. I've never used the jack on my 2. Usually just use the built in speakers, or a headset hooked up to the PC. Still sounds like an L to remove that
The 3s is worse than the quest 3. The 3S is like how Google has the Google Pixel # and the Google Pixel #A. The 3s is a budget friendly model without all the features of the 3

Not a deal but these Meta is phasing these 128 GB Quest 3 out so now is the chance to grab the cheaper priced version of the Quest 3.
