Meta typically rolls out its latest headsets toward the year’s end, often leaving eager consumers waiting until the following holiday season to snag a deal. However, this year offers a pleasant surprise, at least for Amazon shoppers, with a standout Black Friday bargain on the Quest 3S.
The Quest 3S, Meta’s newest headset, hit the market just a mere month and a half ago, making it unexpected to see any significant price cuts until perhaps next year. Yet, Amazon US has outdone itself with a fantastic Black Friday offer: the 128GB Quest 3S headset is priced at the regular $300, but you score a $75 Amazon digital credit (ensure you click ‘Redeem’ on the product page or apply the code QUEST75 at checkout).
For frequent Amazon shoppers, this credit is practically like getting the headset for $225, a price even more competitive than a Nintendo Switch.
This enticing deal on Amazon also comes bundled with some nifty extras: a complimentary copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, which we found to be a thrilling experience in our review, and a three-month trial of Quest+, granting you access to a curated library of VR games.
It’s important to note that this Black Friday offer is specific to the 128GB Quest 3S model. Unfortunately, there’s no similar deal for the 256GB version or the more expensive Quest 3.
Why is this offer so appealing? Well, the Quest 3S is already a fantastic buy considering everything packed into that attractive $300 price tag. Seeing such a substantial deal just weeks after its launch was something we didn’t anticipate this holiday season.
If you’re on the fence about choosing between the more budget-friendly Quest 3S and the Quest 3, we’ve laid out a clear recommendation to help guide your decision.
