It's hard to beat the promise of a great one-stop shop. Target is one of my favorites if I just want to browse without an agenda, because I will inevitably find something fun or on sale. Or in the case of this Black Friday deal, both. Target is currently selling a Meta Quest 3S for $300, as is amazon. That's the usual price for this VR headset, but both retailers include a $75 gift card along with the tech (on amazon, use the code QUESTION75 to get it.) That covers a lot of impulse purchases.
There's a lot to recommend Meta Quest 3S for a VR fan. In fact, it's our pick for the best budget VR headset. Even if you're investing in a low-end VR headset, you'll want to have enough software to run it. The Quest 3S has a large library of apps and can be used to stream games from a PC.
Goal
While some headphones can be unpleasant to wear for long periods of time, reviewer Devindra Hardawar found that wasn't a problem with the Quest 3S. And while it's made some sacrifices on the screen and lenses to keep costs down, this rig still delivers a powerful and immersive VR experience.
The content included with the purchase of any Quest headset will help you get started in virtual reality. Batman: Arkham Shadow is one of the most notable exclusive games for Meta's Quest 3 and Quest 3S, continuing the lineage of the Arkham game universe initially developed by Rocksteady Studios. You'll also get a three-month subscription to the Meta Quest+ game catalog. Maintaining the subscription after the trial period will cost $8 per month. Or use that gift card and get a title to keep.
