It&#8217;s smaller, lighter, has twice the graphical power, and now comes with an advanced set of full-color external cameras. This means the Quest 3 can present a detailed representation of the world around you and integrate virtual elements with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Quest 3 is also fully backward compatible with Quest 1 and Quest 2 apps, and we expect that, just as with the Quest 2, developers will soon be taking advantage of the better hardware and updating their software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, that brings us to the most important consideration for the Quest 3: Should existing Quest owners should this new headset?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a Meta Quest 1, the Quest 3 is an easy recommendation, since the first Quest headset is no longer supported by Meta. You can still use the Quest 1 to play the games you&#8217;ve paid for and those still in the Meta Quest store, but new games are unlikely to support it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you currently own a Quest 2, the increased specs across the board for the third iteration make it worth the upgrade, but take note that it will still take a little while for the software to catch up to these new specs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have any sort of VR headset at all, the Quest 3 is a great recommendation for standalone and PC VR, however it is significantly more expensive than the Quest 2 thanks to all the mixed reality hardware.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Looking to get into VR?
