Prime Day Deal: Last Chance to Get a Meta Quest 3S at Its All-Time Lowest Price

It’s the last day of Prime Day deals, but this VR headset is still available for just $249. Get it at its all-time low while you can.

A VR headset doesn’t need to break the bank. CNET’s Scott Stein praised the Meta Quest 3S as an affordable entry point into mixed reality — «by far the best value in VR,» he said. On Prime Day, it’s an even better bargain. Right now, you can get the Meta Quest 3S 128GB for $249. That’s its all-time low and $51 less than its normal price. It includes the Gorilla Tag Cardboard Hero bundle and three months of Meta Horizon Plus (an ever-growing collection of games), a value of $45.

What’s more, if you want to scoop up the Meta Quest 3S with 256GB storage, you can save $71, as it’s down to $329 on Amazon right now. Not only that, but it includes a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow and three months of Meta Horizon Plus, which has an added value of $70.

While the Meta Quest 3 is undoubtedly the better headset, the Quest 3S isn’t as far behind as you might think. It’s still a top pick for the best VR headset and features the same internal hardware as the Quest 3, so you won’t be limiting your game or app selection. It also has some solid capabilities in mixed reality, letting you blend real-world video and VR graphics, similar to Apple’s much more expensive Vision Pro.

The Quest 3S even has improved hand-tracking abilities in low-light settings. However, the 3S features the same lenses and LCD found on the previous-gen Quest 2, which means the visuals won’t be quite as crisp and detailed.

If you’ve been shocked by the $3,499 price tag on the Apple Vision Pro, the Quest 3S is a great option. Meta makes some of the best VR headsets on the market, and the Quest 3S is no exception. Don’t miss your last chance to get this deal.

Why this deal matters

The Meta Quest 3S is one of the best headsets on the market right now, and it’s an affordable way to start exploring the VR world. We’ve seen occasional gift card offers in the past, but straightforward discounts are rarer. A few months back, we saw this for $30 off, but the current price cuts are the lowest we’ve seen. With tariff concerns and potential price increases on tech, this is a great deal if you want to pick up an affordable VR headset.
