Meta has typically waited until the end of the year to release their latest headsets, meaning we don’t usually see discounts until the following holiday season. However, this year’s different. Amazon has surprised us all with a fantastic Black Friday deal on the Quest 3S.
Meta’s newest headset, the Quest 3S, hit the market just about six weeks ago. We didn’t anticipate any noteworthy price cuts until next year, so this opportunity is a pleasant surprise.
Right now, Amazon in the US is offering an enticing Black Friday special for the Quest 3S. The headset, which normally sells for $300 in its 128GB version, comes with a $75 digital credit. Be sure to click ‘Redeem’ on the product page or enter the code QUEST75 when you check out.
Given the versatility of digital credits on Amazon, this essentially reduces the headset’s effective cost to $225. That’s cheaper than a Nintendo Switch and quite a bargain for VR enthusiasts.
This deal also includes a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, a title that we thoroughly enjoyed during our review, along with a three-month trial of Quest+, giving you access to select VR games.
It’s important to note that this Black Friday deal is limited to the 128GB model of Quest 3S. Unfortunately, there’s no comparable offer for the 256GB version or the more premium Quest 3.
So, why is this offer so enticing? The Quest 3S is already a standout purchase at its $300 price tag, given all it offers. With the recent release, we genuinely didn’t expect such a bargain this holiday.
If you’re on the fence about whether to grab the more budget-friendly Quest 3S or the Quest 3, you might want to check out our detailed recommendation to help make up your mind.
