r/Quest3

I have a PSVR2 but I want to get Quest 3 for some of those exclusives as well as to get the games that are not on PSVR2. 1st I want to know if it's worth getting this in 2026 worth it considering Quest 4 is around the corner? 2nd does quest 3 get sweat damage to lenses like PSVR2? Do I need a protective lenses for it or can I use it with spec without the protective lenses? And I don't have an official store and only got an international debit card, can we buy from other store like US one? Is there any regional cheaper store to get games from?

UPDATE: I got Meta Quest 3 512 GB. I decided to play it as long as I could and later think of getting the next one if I clear my backlog. Thanks everyone!

I spilled a cup of water on my table that had my quest. No water touched the quest itself but it got on the controllers and on the tip of the charger that plugs into the block. I dried with paper towels and the only thing still wet is the little straps on the controllers. Is it safe to plug this in? Should it still work?

I use Beat Saber for cardio every night. I've gotten to the point now, after almost a year of pretty well every single day playing it, that the headset's performance is actually keeping me from progressing and reaching my full potential. I will get stutters. Those are less common but what I'll do is experience, like, the sabers actually feeling more like whips than sabers or I'll see the sabers appear only one time in a swing while the trail is there for the full swing, or my controllers will vibrate only after the saber has left a block. If I turn around too quickly while swinging at a block to hit another block, it will register as a wrong direction swing. Sometimes I'll go right through a block and watch my saber enter and exit it and then I'll get a miss on it.

It all has to do with just performance. Beat Saber is modded so I have downloaded custom maps but this happens on stock maps or modded maps, makes no difference. I just really need to improve the performance of this thing. It's driving me nuts. I want to get the Steam Frame but that's vaporware at this point. We know it's still coming but it's also not ever coming.

I have a Quest Pro (and a 2 and an og Oculus) and I have been playing long hours daily while tethered. I mostly play PC games on Virtual Desktop these days, I love leaning back on my bed playing games on a virtual screen.

But now I'm finding the device powers down before I'm finished playing. It happens with all batteries and because I don't mind playing seated I use the provided charger and 10ft cord to keep supplying power to the battery. Once the battery drains, though, the unit will not power up until it recharges some.

So my thinking is to use a higher powered charger block such that enough power trickles to last the day. I just don't wanna damage it. How much is too much?

Since we've been featured as the free Horizon+ game for August, there have been a few questions about our studio. Who are we, why haven't we built xyz, what do we do all day, etc. I thought it would be fair to reshare our story.

And while we've taken on 2 new team members since our early days, we're still the same scrappy studio. It has been an honor to be featured on Horizon+. Get in the game, tell your friends.

With appreciation,

It injects into VR, but here are a few pro's & cons you should know about

So, I have a 512G Q3 that I've been trying to use while traveling.

I watched successfully a movie on the plane, I've used it successfully in my hotel, and I played a few shooting games. The best was when I watched a movie. It felt like being at the movie theater, but that's where the issues started.

Main issue, some sort of time out or sleep mode. I consulted with AI, watched a lot of YT repair videos (I'm pretty handy), started to measure the time where the Q3 will go into sleep mode, it was kind of random at the beginning. AI said more than 80% chance to be a thermal shutdown.

So, I opened up, found very little dust, mostly around the fan (cleaned all that), I replaced the original Thermal putty for some thick Coasair Thermal paste (Q3 runs cooler now 😎), but issue persist.

AI said well its your forehead sensor, tape it. Found a luggage sticker, cutter a little piece, and didn't help. AI said turn ON the laying down Apps in the experimental menu. Nope, it didn't work.

AI said it's your OS, Meta has a new OS that resolves this issue. So, I that didn't help either.

AI said it's the 2D apps your using, IG YT Prime Video are native Android apps, so the sensors don't receive a ping, so the Q3 thinks is laying down on a desk and goes into sleep mode. So, I tried my shooting game laying down, and it was fine until I sat still (no head movement) for less than 1 min. It went to sleep mode, 😠 😡 😤.

So, AI said to make sure hand tracking in ON and to watch a movie with my hands moving at all times. The Q3 shows me tracking my VR hands, but it still times out.

The only way I've got thru the first 10 min of a movie is to become Stevie Wonder and keep moving my head.

Any clues what to do next?

Thank you

It didn't happen after being dropped or anything either. It just happened randomly as I turned on the headset and noticed I couldn't move my right controller as it immediately moved to the right and just gets stuck there.

I can't wait to play more of this as it's such a fantastic experience in VR
