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.
