The Meta Quest 3S is being treated as a budget VR headset that feels close to a Quest 2 with a Quest 3 chip, and the Amazon bundle adds a $50 credit and a Gorilla Tag bonus. The main appeal is getting into VR at a lower price, especially for first time users. The biggest drawback is the lenses, which are described as noticeably worse than Quest 3 and harder to adjust. The Amazon credit also has a shipped and sold by Amazon restriction, and promo credits can be unreliable. A solid entry point if the bundle terms work for you.

  • New VR players who want a standalone headset for short sessions, because it is still pretty good when you are new to VR.

  • Shoppers who want a lower-cost headset with a newer processor, because it is basically like a Quest 2 with Quest 3 CPU.

  • People deciding between buying now or waiting for a better price, because locking in the price while you decide can be useful.

  • Buyers who want a bundled game included, because this listing also includes a Gorilla Tag bundle.

  • Players who are sensitive to lens clarity, because the lenses are noticeably worse than Quest 3 and harder to adjust.

  • People who want long VR sessions, because VR still causes nausea and shaky frame rates make extended play uncomfortable.

  • Shoppers expecting the included Amazon credit to be easy to use, because it must be shipped and sold by Amazon.

  • Buyers who need a reliable promotional credit, because these credits can fail to arrive and require customer service follow-up.

paypal 20% cashback works on target. so that's 250x.2 back. then target gives 50 gift card. bestbuy has similar deal but it's easier to spend at target unless you got something you want from best buy. on second thought, it's actually 150 for me because it's 50 cash back. originally i was basing it on 200x.2. PayPal only works on target and bb, not Costco and Amazon
so are you saying, logged in to your paypal account, under the offers tab there is one for 20% CB for target or best buy- I just checked my account and don't see one - so it's possible its YMMV?

no, it's not specifically for target or best buy. it's for every merchant that accepts paypal. look around it's usually on the front page ad. it should say 20% cash back if you use pay later. if you can't find it, it's probably not offered to you. do you have bad credit? i'm not sure what determines but it seems many people get it.

What's it look like when you check out

When I go to PayPal, it gives me an offer of the 20% off with pay later. Which I saved. But nothing in the dialogues at target or in the authorized PayPal screens mention it but PayPal credit does say Get $40 back

!!! Oh, I see now that it is PayPal credit that you used OK. Now to decide if the $40 off is better than the 12 months subscription that the Costco version gets you

Is it good for 10-year-old kids? I heard VR can make them feel dizzy.
VR makes everyone feel nauseous. With exposure it will get better. Getting your VR legs as they say. But I have had one for two years now and still you can't play this a long time like you would on a tv or monitor. Poor shaky frame rates will bother you regardless of experience.

no, it's not paypal credit. that's a credit card that gives you instant off the total but that value is random and 40 is less than normal of 50. when i say 40 before it's from the cash back points, it'll say points pending after you buy it but it wont mention it in the buy screen. you need to use pay in 4. it says that in the offer on the front that you saved. did you read it? the pay in 4 20% cash back deal lets you do it many times up to 1.5 billion points. so like 1500 cash back total or something.

The Amazon credit does have the must be shipped and sold by Amazon limitation, which can often be tricky to use

after the target $50 gift card stacked with paypal 20% cashback deal, this is the next best thing. amazon has it for 250-50 gift credit = 200. also has gorilla tag bundle which i have no idea what that is.

I ordered this almost a week ago and still haven't received my $50 promotional credit. Anyone else in the same boat?

Yeah I know it's 30 days but tbh the terms always says that. In the past I would get it much sooner. I guess they are honoring the 30 days this time. Thanks for the reply.

These promos with "30-day" language are hit or miss. It is quite often that the credit never arrives and the only remedy is to beg CS rep for credit which, if added, would be courtesy credits. There is only so much courtesy credits that can be issued to an account. If you have 2 or more credits missing, you are out of luck

Thus, I avoid those. Got burned too many times during the last spring and summer when the credits for Galaxy Ring and a Hisense TV were never added. Oh, and lots of missing credit for Pet stuff when amazon matched Chevy promo.

Not saying you wont receive the credit for this one, nobody knows, but something to keep in mind. Sure, you can say I took my screenshots, but at the end of the day it is a hassle and your time you have to waste fighting for credits that were supposed to be added on their own

Sam's Club is $250 as well but comes with a very nice case if you aren't interested in free game

Thanks for that info. I have been thinking about returning it and just getting it for $200 at Costco. As I haven't opened it yet.
