Meta about Quest 3S
According to Mark Zuckerberg’s speech at the Meta Quest 3S announcement, one of the main reasons for the price reduction is the use of Fresnel lenses, as opposed to the Pancake lenses used in the original Quest 3, which are more expensive in general.
In terms of configurations, the Quest 3S features the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor and 8 GB of RAM.
What should prices be like in Brazil?
There is currently no forecast for the launch of the Quest 3S in the Brazilian market, but the original Quest 3 is available here on Amazon in its 128 Gb version for R$ 3.899.
It’s hard to imagine exactly how official prices in dollars will translate to reais in the Brazilian market, but if you were looking for a cheaper virtual reality headset, you might want to keep an eye on the Quest 3S.
With the arrival of the most basic models of the Quest 3 family, Meta is now discontinuing the Quest 2 and Quest Pro models.
