Meta’s been known to drop its latest headsets as the year winds down, usually making them a hot ticket item only for the holiday season that follows. But this year is shaking things up a bit—especially if you’re prowling Amazon for deals—thanks to a remarkable Black Friday offer on the Quest 3S.
The Quest 3S, the freshest offering from Meta, hit the shelves just about six weeks ago. We originally anticipated waiting until at least next year for any significant discounts on this new gadget.
However, Amazon US has flipped the script with an enticing Black Friday offer on the Quest 3S: you can grab the 128GB headset at its standard $300 price, but here’s the kicker—Amazon is tossing in a $75 digital credit. Just make sure to hit the ‘Redeem’ button on the product page or pop in the code QUEST75 at checkout.
For many shoppers, that credit is practically as good as cash. Breaking it down, this deal is akin to snagging the headset for about $225. That makes it cheaper than a Nintendo Switch—a pretty incredible bargain if you ask me.
This Amazon deal also includes the typical perks: a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, which impressed us in our review, along with a three-month trial of Quest+. Quest+ opens the doors to a curated collection of VR games, adding more value to the package.
Keep in mind that this Black Friday offer covers only the Quest 3S model with 128GB storage. Sadly, there’s no comparable discount for the 256GB version or the more expensive Quest 3.
So, why is this such an appealing offer? Well, the Quest 3S is already a stellar deal at its $300 price, given all it packs in. We didn’t expect any noteworthy discounts with it being so newly launched.
For anyone on the fence between snagging the more economical Quest 3S or opting for the Quest 3, we’ve got a handy recommendation in our review to help you decide.
