Quest 3S Black Friday Deal Exceeds Expectations

Meta usually reserves the launch of its headsets for the year’s tail end, which typically means you won’t see the devices on sale until the following holiday season. However, this year breaks the mold a bit, especially with Amazon stepping up for an eye-catching Black Friday sale on the Quest 3S.

Having been on the market for just over six weeks, Meta’s Quest 3S wasn’t expected to see any significant price cuts until next year rolled around. To our surprise, Amazon US has rolled out an enticing Black Friday offer: snag the 128GB headset at its usual price of $300, paired with a sweet $75 digital credit to spend on Amazon. Don’t forget to hit that ‘Redeem’ button on the product page, or simply pop in the code QUEST75 when you’re at the check-out.

That Amazon credit is practically the same as cold, hard cash for most of us, which effectively takes the cost down to $225—making it more affordable than even a Nintendo Switch.

But wait, there’s more! This Quest 3S deal on Amazon also serves up the usual perks like a complimentary copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow—an experience we thoroughly enjoyed during our review—and a three-month stint with Quest+, offering access to a curated selection of VR games.

It’s important to note, though: this smashing Black Friday deal is exclusive to the Quest 3S (128GB) model. If you’re hoping to snag a deal on the 256GB version or the higher-tier Quest 3, it’s time to recalibrate your expectations.

So, what’s the big draw here? Well, standing at an attractive $300, the Quest 3S already screams unbeatable value, given everything it brings to the table. The sudden appearance of any hefty discounts right after its launch seemed unlikely, to say the least.

And if you’re torn between choosing the more budget-friendly Quest 3S or the full-fledged Quest 3, we’ve got a straightforward guide to help make that decision a breeze.
