Meta typically rolls out its latest headsets towards the latter part of the year, which usually means waiting for the following holiday season to see any significant discounts. However, this year brings a surprising twist, at least from Amazon’s side, with a standout Black Friday offer on the Quest 3S.
Having launched just a month and a half ago, nobody really anticipated seeing a hefty price cut on Meta’s latest release until well into the next year. Yet, here we are, with Amazon US rolling out a tempting deal for Black Friday: the Quest 3S at its regular price of $300 for the 128GB version accompanied by a $75 digital credit. To snag this offer, be sure to hit the ‘Redeem’ option on the product page or enter the code QUEST75 during checkout.
For many of us, this credit on Amazon practically equals cash, effectively bringing the headset’s price down to approximately $225—making it even more budget-friendly than a Nintendo Switch.
In addition to the savings, the Quest 3S deal sweetens the pot with a complimentary copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow—a game we thoroughly enjoyed—and a three-month trial of Quest+, giving you access to a curated library of VR games.
It’s worth mentioning that this Black Friday deal is exclusive to the 128GB Quest 3S model. Sadly, there are no similar promotions for the 256GB model or the pricier Quest 3.
So, why is this deal a standout? Simply put, the Quest 3S already delivers outstanding value, especially given its enticing $300 price tag. The expectation of such significant discounts wasn’t on anyone’s radar so soon after its launch.
If you’re weighing up whether to opt for the more wallet-friendly Quest 3S or spend a bit more on the Quest 3, we have an easy-to-follow recommendation to help you decide.
