If you\u2019ve always thought virtual reality headsets are too niche of a product category, and that you won\u2019t use one on a regular basis, then allow me to draw your attention to the Meta Quest 3S. This affordable, comfortable and capable VR headset represents one of the easiest routes to virtual reality \u2013 and it\u2019s now discounted by up to 33% thanks to Amazon\u2019s October Prime Day sale<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, the biggest discount also happens to apply to the higher-spec 256GB model, giving you more storage to download games. While our tester did say that 128GB is fine for most users in our Meta Quest 3S review<\/a>, I\u2019d argue that double the storage for just AU$31 more at the time of writing is the more economical purchase.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve never used a VR headset before and are intimidated about setting it up, fear not. In reality, all you actually need is a decent amount of space (ideally a 1m x 1m box around you) to move around while you play games. And I do mean \u201cbox\u201d because your arms will need overhead space to flail around in some cases. You don\u2019t need to put out any base stations or other gear, just get yourself a good area and you\u2019ll be fine.<\/p>\n

Want some game suggestions to get you started? No problem. Because the Quest 3S runs on Horizon OS, which gives you access to Meta\u2019s library of exclusive titles, among many others, you have access to Walkabout Mini Golf, Beat Saber, Batman: Arkham Shadow, and Vendetta Forever. Any of these are great places to start.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also benefit from adding Netflix and Xbox Game Pass<\/a> Ultimate, if you\u2019re subscribed to either service (despite the latter\u2019s recent price hike<\/a>), and you could even dip your toes into VR fitness to help keep you active and healthy.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot more the Meta Quest 3S has to offer, and thanks to this deal, it\u2019s offering it at a truly accessible price point for VR.<\/p>\n
