Prime Day is in full swing, and we’ve already found close to 200 amazing deals. The Meta Quest 3S with 128GB of storage is one of them, thanks to a deal that knocks $50 off its usual $299 price. You can grab the latest VR headset for $249 ($50 off), its all-time low price, at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart during Prime Day.

The mixed reality headset was released in October of 2024, and Verge news editor Jay Peters called it “a great first VR headset” in his review. The 256GB model that costs $329 ($70 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart comes with a copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow ($50 by itself) and a three-month trial of Meta Horizon Plus.

If you bought a Meta Quest 2, you’re a prime candidate for the Quest 3S. It’s a faster, more comfortable VR headset that runs the same chipset as the pricier Quest 3. While its screen resolution hasn’t improved, nearly everything else about the hardware has. Read our review.

The Quest 3S is a great VR headset has the same processor, external cameras, and Touch Plus controllers as the more expensive Meta Quest 3, though its screen resolution (1832 x 1920 per eye) and Fresnel lenses are the same ones you’ll get with the older Quest 2. These spec compromises didn’t stop our reviewer from enjoying Batman: Arkham Shadow. Plus, you can wirelessly stream Xbox games, as well as PC games from your Steam library, to the headset.
