Preorders open on Wednesday and it ships on Oct. 10.
So far Meta, the company formerly known as Facebook, has a head start. Its Quest 2 is by far the best-selling VR headset of all time, with nearly 10 million units sold last year, slightly down from a pandemic peak, according. Apple's Vision Pro headset won't go on sale until next year, and costs significantly more than Meta's headsets, starting at $3,499.
The hardware has been significantly updated, with a new headband strap and a slimmer headset shape. The new headband splits the top strap into two straps over the user's head to distribute weight better. The whole headset, though, is a hair heavier than its predecessor at 515 grams. The speakers on the device have also been improved, and provide a quality audio experience without as much sound leaking out.
During the demo, I tried out Samba de Amigo, a $30 game from Sega that is like Dance Dance Revolution or Rock Band with maracas . It was fun and I even sweated a little bit. Passthrough, while a core component of mixed reality experiences which integrate computer graphics with the real world, for now is a nice-to-have usability feature. In practice, it means that users can stop their game or experience inside the Quest 3 without taking the headset off. During the demo, I was able to cchat with Meta officials while wearing the headset, a major improvement over the last version.
