Meta has a knack for rolling out their latest headsets towards the year’s close, typically meaning sales don’t pop up until the following holiday season. However, this year surprises us with something different, at least over on Amazon, which is rolling out a fantastic Black Friday deal for the Quest 3S.
The Quest 3S, Meta’s newest addition, hit the market just a few short weeks ago. Usually, we’re not holding our breath for a hefty discount on such fresh releases until the next year rolls around.
However, Amazon US has pulled a fast one with an enticing Quest 3S Black Friday offer: you can snag the 128GB headset for the standard $300, but Amazon sweetens the deal with a $75 digital credit. Just be sure to click the ‘Redeem’ button on the product page or enter the code QUEST75 at checkout.
Given how many of us treat Amazon credit as good as cash, this bargain essentially lowers the headset’s price to $225, making it even more budget-friendly than a Nintendo Switch.
This offer also comes packed with extras: a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow, which was a blast according to our review, and a three-month trial of Quest+, giving you access to a handpicked library of VR games.
Do keep in mind, though, this Black Friday deal is exclusive to the 128GB version of the Quest 3S. Sadly, there’s no similar offer for the 256GB model or the more expensive Quest 3.
So why is this a stellar deal? Well, the Quest 3S already boasts unbeatable value with everything it offers at that great $300 price tag. Honestly, we didn’t think any significant discounts would surface this holiday season considering its recent debut.
And if you’re on the fence about choosing between the more budget-friendly Quest 3S and the Quest 3, feel free to dive into our detailed recommendation right here.
