If you don't like the "free" games of the month you can hold off activating Meta+ for 3 months.
Games claimed for "free" through the subscription are only accessible with an active subscription.
$30 credit for those that use a friend link prior to device setup (it's a ban-able offense on SD to post/request such links but check Reddit)
ALL SALES ARE TARGETED meaning they could offer 50% off to one account and no sale for another.
When buying games check for developer links to save a flat 15-20% when there is no active sale on the game.
You're going to want a better strap and there's 2 or 3 great options for under $100. Some have hot swap batteries.(examples kiwi, globular, boboVR)
If you have glasses or a stigmatism there are snap on prescription lenses for $20 on sites or $50 direct from Meta.
The max credit you can attain per year is $599 (anything $600+ is taxable)
The 4th gen headset is expected 2026/2027
There's free 3rd party software like OcularMigraine that improves visuals at the cost of battery life. Others like Quest Games Optimizer have a price associated along with permissions.
The games with PCVR need the Meta app for PC and many others recommend Virtual Desktop when on sale.
You do not need to link FB/IG to your account can use a normal email account.
If you mess up the $30 link you have 7 days to click a $30 link and factory reset your headset and go through initial setup to get it. Otherwise you need a good bit of personal info from the other person for support to process it. Sometimes there's a promo for $60 credit so check the app.
I'm sure there is info I forgot like there's no crossbuy and if you see it that means it gives you a Meta PC copy you need the app to play.
360 videos through the YouTube app are not true 4K and should be downloaded to view uncompressed.
Rechargeable batteries for the controllers are a must as they take 1 AA each.
Activate 2 factor authentication and set a pin for purchases to minimize accidents. There is a small return window for purchases but YMMV with support.
Those with GeForceNow can use it with the headset but the experience is not amazing yet.
Do NOT expose headset or lenses to direct or reflected sunlight (use a cover)
If you owned a Quest2 and purchase a Quest3 you may still be able to get the $30 activation credit.
Do NOT leave the headset charging for hours unsupervised or with 3rd party plugs/cables
Always read reviews as Most Recent and check online for in depth reviews.
I've accidentally punched my headset during a vr workout and thankfully it was fine but mind your surroundings.
Meta+ is not needed to use the headset (my 3 month trial ran out)
Only use a dry microfiber cloth to clean your lenses or risk removing the anti glare coating
Batman game extended through December 2026
I own a Quest 3
Community Reviews
This Quest 3S bundle stands out as a low-cost way to get into Meta VR, especially for Quest exclusives, mixed reality games, and the included year of Horizon+. The price can drop to $199 in cart, and the subscription adds a steady stream of redeemable games and store discounts. Costco's return policy and price adjustment window add some comfort. The main cautions are the fresnel lenses, which are blurrier than Quest 3's pancake lenses, and the 3S's weaker fit for productivity or long media sessions. A solid entry point if gaming is the priority.
Common Questions (5)
Non-VR games and movies display on a large virtual flat screen, and 4K movie playback can feel like a theater experience with apps like Skybox VR. For productivity, the Quest 3S is limited by its fresnel lenses and lower resolution, so text is not as clear as on a Quest 3 or a monitor.
The Costco bundle itself does not include the Batman bundle, but Batman Arkham Shadow is still eligible with a new Quest 3S purchase while supplies last. The game may need to be redeemed after the order completes, and some buyers had to contact Meta support when it did not auto-add.
The subscription is tied to the headset and auto-activates during setup in the Meta Horizon app. It gives access to monthly games and Meta+ discounts, but claimed games stay playable only while the subscription remains active.
The Quest 3S uses fresnel lenses, while the Quest 3 uses pancake lenses. That means the 3S is sharpest in the center and blurrier toward the edges, while the Quest 3 stays sharper across the whole lens.
Costco's return policy applies, and one comment specifically says the warehouse has an unlimited return policy. That makes it a lower-risk buy if you want to test VR comfort and return it if the headset does not work for you.
