Meta Quest 3S Leaks
The Meta Quest 3S, Meta's rumored budget VR headset, has been leaked ahead of its potential announcement at the upcoming Meta Connect event on September 25th. This headset, a follow-up to last year's Quest 3, combines design elements from both the Quest 2 and Quest 3 models. Notable features include front-facing cameras arranged in two sets of three, distinguishing it from the Quest 3's pill-shaped camera cutouts.
The Quest 3S is expected to be a more affordable option, with rumors suggesting a price point as low as $300. To reduce costs, it might ship without controllers, relying instead on gesture controls, similar to Apple's Vision Pro. The device is also rumored to retain the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chipset. It could feature a single display panel and older Fresnel lenses from the Quest 2 to balance performance with affordability.
With accessories already spotted on retail sites like AliExpress, excitement is building for this budget-friendly option. Many are looking forward to the official reveal later this month, which should confirm the final features and pricing.
