The holidays are when everyone asks for top tech that they’ve been eyeing all year, especially since some of the items are hard to justify splurging on the rest of the year. If you or a friend have been waiting to see what the hype around virtual reality is all about, this deal at Amazon<\/a> and Best Buy<\/a> might be your opportunity. But the deal ends in a few days, so act fast.<\/p>\n

Right now you can score a $100 gift card with the purchase of the Meta Quest 3<\/a>\u00a0at both retailers, which is one of our our favorite VR headsets<\/a>. You can also get one month of Xbox Game Pass for free, a $30 value. The headset usually goes for $500, so this effectively brings the price down to $400. It’s not a direct discount, but you can put the $100 credit toward games or other accessories. Just add the headset to your cart, and the gift card will be unlocked automatically.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meta Quest 3 has a solid CNET review score<\/a> of 8.9\/10, which lands it at the top of our best VR headsets<\/a> roundup. According to our expert Scott Stein, “Meta’s upgraded VR sequel to the Quest 2 feels like a notable revamp, with improvements across the board: a slightly smaller design, better, clearer lenses, a higher-res display, smaller controllers with better haptics and higher-res color cameras that can mix the real world and the virtual together.”<\/p>\n

It’s the first VR headset to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset, which means upgraded graphics and better performance. Haptics have improved, too, and make interactions feel a lot more immersive than the previous versions. The battery also lasts up to three hours, which isn’t too bad for some quick gaming or creative sessions.<\/p>\n

Why this deal matters<\/p>\n

Meta Quest 3 offers several useful upgrades over its predecessors, but it isn’t the most affordable at its $500 price tag. If you’ve been looking to try it out, this deal is a great chance to do it with the bonus of a $100 gift card. And don’t forget, you’ll also get a free month of Xbox Game Pass. That’s a $30 value, almost like a total savings of $130. Best Buy is currently running a three-day sale event, which ends on Sunday, Dec. 14. We believe this deal will expire then, and Amazon will likely follow suit. That means the clock is ticking if you’re interested, so grab one before it’s too late.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The holidays are when everyone asks for top tech that they’ve been eyeing all year, especially since some…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":239231,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[158,67,132,68,729,730],"class_list":{"0":"post-443226","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-virtual-reality","8":"tag-technology","9":"tag-united-states","10":"tag-unitedstates","11":"tag-us","12":"tag-virtual-reality","13":"tag-vr"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115709061605541030","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443226","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=443226"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443226\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/239231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=443226"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=443226"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=443226"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
