Meta Quest 3 512GB

A standalone mixed-reality headset: games and apps run on the headset itself, with no PC, console or cable to set up. Two full-colour cameras pass the room through to the displays, so virtual objects can sit in your real space, and the Touch Plus controllers or your bare hands do the pointing.

Inside are the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2, 8 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. The displays run 2064 × 2208 pixels per eye behind pancake lenses — Meta’s 4K+ Infinite Display — at up to 120 Hz across a 110° × 96° field of view, and a wheel sets the lens spacing. Up to 2.2 hours of average use per charge, Wi-Fi 6E, built-in speakers and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

It plays the full Meta Quest library and connects to a gaming PC through Air Link or a Link cable, sold separately. Setup needs a Meta account and the Meta Horizon app on a phone.
