The Best Black Friday Meta Quest Deal Just Dropped: Buy a Quest 3S, Get a $75 Amazon Credit
This deal also includes a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow.
The best Black Friday Meta Quest deal just went live. As part of the Amazon Black Friday Sale, you can score a bonus $75 Amazon digital credit when you purchase a Meta Quest 3S VR headset for $299. The Quest 3S also comes bundled with the Batman: Arkham Shadow VR game and a three-month trial of Meta Quest+. In IGN's 8/10 review, Dan Stapleton wrote that "Batman: Arkham Shadow makes most of the Arkham series' defining gameplay work respectably well in VR, and its mystery story pays off."
Meta Quest 3S VR Headset with Batman: Arkham Shadow
Bonus $75 Amazon Credit The Quest 3S is an improvement over the original Quest 2 in every way and, amazingly, without a price increase. It adopts many of the same features of the Quest 3, like the new Touch controllers, the upgraded SnapDragon APU, and full color AR passthrough. In IGN's 9/10 Quest 3S review, Gabriel Moss wrote that "raw processing power, full-color passthrough, and snappy Touch Plus controllers make the Quest 3S a fantastic standalone VR headset that also brings entry-level mixed-reality gaming to the masses for – arguably – the very first time. But with a $75 Target Gift Card As seen in the Target Black Friday Sneak Peek, Target has matched this deal with its own bonus $75 Target gift card. If Target is your preferred shopping destination, or if you have a Target Circle credit card for the 5% discount, then you should wait for this deal to drop. The Quest 3S comes in at $300, or 30% cheaper than the $430 Quest 3. Obviously, some compromises were made to get the 3S to its competitive price point. The spec comparisons are listed below: In essence, the Quest 3S is nearly the same headset but with downgraded optics. On the plus side, since both headsets use the same processor, running at a lower resolution reduces the load on the APU, which could theoretically improve performance in games and also account for the increased battery life. For the price, the Quest 3S is unquestionably a better value than the Quest 3, and a better choice for most gamers, especially if the Quest 3 was completely out of your budget in the first place. Compared to the previous generation Quest 2, the decision is even easier. We’re in the home stretch: Black Friday falls on November 29 this year. All month long, retailers have been rolling out sales, ramping up to massive discounts on Black Friday and through the weekend into Cyber Monday. There are already some fantastic deals available on PS5 consoles and controllers, video games for all platforms, AirPods Pro, and tons more.
