This year’s Amazon Prime Day<\/a> deals (even if they aren’t at Amazon) won\u2019t just get you the VR headset, you’ll also get a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow \u2013 one of the best VR games ever made \u2013 and a three-month trial of Meta Horizon+ (a Netflix style catalogue of VR games).<\/p>\n

There was a deal available in the UK, and while it wasn’t the best discount we’ve seen it has also gone for now.<\/p>\n

The Meta Quest 3S<\/a> is the second-best VR headset in the world \u2013 losing out only to the Meta Quest 3<\/a> proper.<\/p>\n

This duo is more similar than different. They boast the same software and identical chipsets, the same 8GB of RAM, and an almost identical weight \u2013 the Quest 3S may be bigger, but it\u2019s a tad lighter.<\/p>\n

The main difference is their optics. The Meta Quest 3 boasts a wider field of view and relies on slimmer pancake lenses, which aren\u2019t just more trim, they produce much less blurring at the fringes of the image compared to the fresnel lenses the Quest 3S uses. The regular model also has a higher screen resolution \u2013 boasting a 2064 x 2208 pixels per eye dual-display setup instead of a 1832 x 1920 per eye single display setup.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the Quest 3S is significantly cheaper \u2013 especially with this Prime Day deal.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019re looking to dip your toes into what VR has to offer, or you\u2019re looking to get a headset for someone you\u2019re not sure you can trust with a more expensive gadget, then the Meta Quest 3S is the ideal choice for you.<\/p>\n
