The best Meta Quest 3S sale we've ever seen is only available for another few hours
An all-time low price on the headset, plus free pack-in games and 3 months of Meta Horizon Plus.

The Meta Quest 3S is the latest VR gaming console available, making VR gaming both affordable and easy since you only need the headset to play games — no PC or other device required! Better yet, it's now at an all-time low price with this $50-off Prime Day deal, making the system cheaper than the original Nintendo Switch! Today (July 11) is the last day of Prime Day, making this the last chance you'll be able to get this kind of discount until Black Friday.
The $249 bundle is an Amazon-exclusive model and comes with $45 worth of shiny rocks to use in Gorilla Tag, plus a special armor set for your ape avatar. If you have no interest in playing Gorilla Tag, I suggest picking up the 256GB model for $70 off so you can get Batman Arkham Shadow for free and get double the storage as a bonus.
Remember, this is a full gaming console that works on its own, allowing you to play thousands of VR and mixed reality games from anywhere. You can even watch movies on it in a private movie theater, play games on Xbox Game Pass or GeForce Now, or even make Zoom calls using your Meta avatar. It's incredible, just like this deal!

Meta Quest 3S 🎮
Was: $299.99
Starting at: $249.99 at Amazon
"Meta has once again surpassed all expectations of what a standalone VR headset can be for just $299. The Meta Quest 3S is quite literally a Quest 3 with the Quest 2's lenses and display, better hand tracking and low light tracking, a new mixed reality button on the headset, and all the exclusive games the more expensive Quest 3 gets." — Nick Sutrich for Android Central
Android Central review ⭐⭐⭐⭐1/2
✅Recommended if: you've been wanting to get into VR gaming or are looking for a wallet-friendly upgrade for an older Quest 2. You'll get all the great new games, including upcoming exclusives like Deadpool VR, plus free games out of the box.
❌Skip this deal if: you want the super clear lenses and wider FoV of the more expensive Meta Quest 3, or would prefer the Xbox Edition of the Meta Quest 3S because of its free pack-ins and sleek black-and-green style.
Choose the 128GB model if 🦍: You want $50 in Gorilla Tag freebies, or just want the least expensive Meta Quest model.
Choose the 256GB model if 🦇: You don't care about Gorilla Tag, love Batman, or think you'll fill up 128GB of storage quickly.

Throw away your old misconceptions about VR and try on a Meta Quest 3S. We promise you'll be surprised (in the best way)! The Quest works like any other portable gaming console, be it a Nintendo Switch 2, Steam Deck, ROG Ally X, or any other equivalent you can think of.
The difference is that, instead of looking down and eventually developing a neck injury, you wear the Quest on your head and are immersed in virtual worlds, becoming the character rather than just controlling it with joysticks and buttons.
Games like Batman Arkham Shadow are perfect sequels to the series that gamers like me love, giving you new ways to explore the Arkham world with combat that'll get you feeling like you're actually Batman himself.
All Meta Quest 3S consoles come with 3 months of the Meta Horizon Plus gaming subscription for free. With Horizon Plus, gamers get to keep two free preselected games each month, plus get access to a rotating library of two dozen of the best Meta Quest games so long as you have an active subscription. It's a lot like PlayStation Plus or the old Xbox Live model, and it means you've got access to a ton of games without having to buy anything else for several months!
