Meta Quest 3 vs. Quest 2 - Which Should You Buy?

The only reason to get a quest 2 now is if your poor.

the quest 2 controller saved my finger so many times that makes me feel in danger with the quest 3 controller

sadly the quest 2 is like 400 and the quest 3 is like 800

there only 4 years apart cant be that much of a change. anyway got be better then paying 550 dollars for the ps5 one

I mean, The Quest 2 should be able to handle Quest 3 exclusive games if they're also released to PC, as the GPU of the PC would be doing most of the processing, and as long as you have good wifi and/or a good cable for streaming to the Quest 2, then buying a Quest 3 immediately is nothing to worry about (besides, Augmented Reality takes up a LOT of battery power on the Quest 3(90 minutes of AR playtime)
The Quest 2 is also still getting updates for optimization despite the Quest 3's release, and has longer battery playtime than the Quest 3, (Q2: 2.5 - 3 hours, Q3: 2.2 hours playtime comparison)

Me and sone friends have a quest 2 and tryna get more friends to get them so we can play together so I really hope the 2 is supported long enough with new releases. i find a lot of the games in the store look underwhelming so it would suck if when they finally release stuff i want it ends up on the quest 3

I AM SO SAD😢😢. I thought my OCULUS engraved questbtwo was going to be rare worth a lot so i could be cool or something but now it is just the one before the 3, unless the business fails but i doubt that

Had to get the quest 3. Idk how people don’t have a bigger issue with the quest 2’s screens and resolution. It’s dog shit.

Damn I wonder what vr is going to look like in 2034

Ngl im kinda gonna miss the wring, hoping theres latex covers that add the wring

I vote for quest 3

Twelve HUNDRED dollars for a vacuum?!?

As someone using it for pcvr I don't see a downside to keeping the quest 2 other than comfort

Ill answer the question for you, just get the quest 2 its not even a question. Wait for them to make the Quest 4 and hopefully there will be some actual improvements that isnt intended to sucker you out of your money. Do yourself a favor and with the money you save from guessing the q3, get a portable charger for your q2 because they decided to force an update to make the q2 useless in terms of battery life.

What a terrible review

#4 advantage is performance but you didn't notice a performance difference between the two. So what the fuck are you even talking about?

I need a real review not a paid one 😳

What game were u playing in the car

great video

Still though, 2 releases that will both run on the previous generation. SImply a throwback to the 3ds in 2011 with the AR stuff with a few extra features. My opinion save the hundreds difference or stick with the 2.

If they discontinue the quest 2 thats disgusting

I'm considering buying either of these (neither my boyfriend or I have ever had or used a vr set). The quest 2 is currently £248, however the quest is about £480. I'm not sure I can justify that for the 3, but is it worth getting over the 2?

Guys I am a little confused, can I use meta quest 2 or 3 to play vr steam games? Or just meta games

I'm buying the quest 2 gamestop has a black Friday deal where you get it new for 250 with a 50$ meta store gift card, I'll get the 3 at taxes plus I hear the quest 2 has way better battery

I just got my quest 3 today after having my quest 2 for 3 years. It is a difference because the battery life of my Q2 has almost degraded to around 30-45 minutes of gameplay, from an advertised 2 hours. Yet the Q3 is around only 1 hour due to the immense battery hogging of the high-performance XR2 Gen 2, I could also notice the heat. I recommend the Q3 for new VR users due to the compatibility with coming games and older games.

Thanks, I think I will order the 2 for my rough 10 year old and go from there if he enjoys it and plays with it often.

how much do u think the quest 3 will drop in price over the next year to christmas 2024

I have both and the quest 3 is a huge step up in comfort and the cameras are a huge upgrade for someone who needs to see their mouse/keyboard frequently while "flying"

I wish they would say why First Encounters keeps disappearing from the store?

looking at that i am sure they got influencer quest 3's with better cameras, my quest three doesnt look like this also not on the 2 dimmensional mirror image, by the way i am pretty sure that the quest 2's resolution dropped by 30 % since the release of the three, can someone confirm that?

When they make a quest that can track behind my head then I’ll upgrade from my 2

for me the number 1 advantage would be the selling point. I hate how when watching a movie or a video, you have to move your whole head to look at different angles

old mate talks like John the data centre guy from Silicon Valley

As opposed to meta quest 3 vs meta quest 2 in 2022?
Okay-😊 i get it but it's still funny

well I mean, the quest 2 now have a great deal from Amazon of £249 which is a £199 Quest 2+ £50 gift card bundle, so it is makes Quest 2 a really sweet deal thou, It would be more worthy to wait for next opportunity for Quest 3 to lower the price to about £300 and at that point you could choose Quest 3 for the MR :)

the tracking rings being gone is gonna be painful xD, those things saved my thumbs from hitting surfaces more times than I can count

The one thing i hate about my quest 2 is how much it falls down on my face and that sweet spot disappears and its frustrating. With the quest 3 being slightly heavier is that still a problem with it?

2>3

quest 3 is ugly

The design of the Quest 2 is better in my opinion.

do they work with Steam?

So I am about to buy A Quest 3 or 2, but I watched so many videos now I can't decide what to buy. ANY ADVICE ?

Sounds about right

as soon as i heard you say retina display i stopped the video, youre a brain washed apple fanboy if you use that term. a retina display is a branded way of saying "display" as retina displays can be both lcd and oled...

Thanks for your video, needed more info before getting it for my boy and you have explained very well.

Very nice and useful video, you should have a lot more subscribers! Congratulations and keep the good work!

if your thinking buying new hardware is a good idea because it will "age better over time" you really need to rethink EVERYTHING
