Meta typically rolls out its latest headsets at the end of the year, which means they usually don’t see discounts until the following holiday season. However, this time around, there’s a pleasant surprise from Amazon with a notable Black Friday deal on the Quest 3S.
The Quest 3S, the latest release from Meta, only hit the market about six weeks ago. Naturally, we didn’t expect any significant price cuts on this device until next year.
Surprisingly, Amazon US is offering a compelling Black Friday promotion on the Quest 3S: it’s available for $300 for the 128GB version, which is the regular price, but they’re throwing in a $75 Amazon digital credit. Just remember to click the ‘Redeem’ button on the product page or use the promo code QUEST75 during checkout.
Considering many people treat Amazon credit as cash, this deal effectively brings the headset price down to around $225, making it even cheaper than a Nintendo Switch.
This Amazon Quest 3S deal also includes the usual perks like a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, which we thoroughly enjoyed during our review, and a three-month trial of Quest+, giving you access to a curated selection of VR games.
It’s important to note that this Black Friday offer is exclusive to the 128GB Quest 3S model. Unfortunately, the 256GB version and the more expensive Quest 3 don’t have a similar deal running.
So, why is this such a fantastic deal? Well, the Quest 3S is already a remarkable bargain with its $300 price tag, given what it offers. We honestly didn’t anticipate seeing any big discounts on this headset this holiday season, as it just launched last month.
If you’re on the fence about whether to choose the more budget-friendly Quest 3S or the Quest 3, we’ve got a straightforward recommendation for you right here.
