Performance
The first headset powered by the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 platform, offering twice the computing power compared to Meta Quest 2. This ensures faster loading times and smoother gameplay, making it capable of running demanding applications such as fast-paced games or providing high-resolution, full-color passthrough.
Mixed Reality
Two RGB cameras with 18 photodiodes provide a passthrough view with 10 times the resolution of Quest 2 and twice that of Quest Pro. This enables high-quality, full-color surroundings and the projection of virtual objects in physical spaces. Accurate depth projection and room mapping allow for seamless movement in physical environments while interacting with virtual characters or objects.
Audio
Built-in stereo speakers with 3D spatial audio deliver a 40% wider sound range, deeper bass, and improved balance control. A 3.5mm audio jack allows you to connect headphones or external audio devices.
Strap Design
The soft, adjustable strap accommodates various head shapes and hairstyles. A rigid strap is also available separately.
Depth Adjustment
Easily adjust the interface pad’s distance from your face for improved comfort and field of view.
Display Resolution
Each eye enjoys a resolution of 2064 × 2208 pixels, nearly 30% higher than Meta Quest 2, providing sharper visuals and more realistic graphics. The 4K+ Infinite Display system, with 25 PPD and 1218 PPI, delivers the best resolution in the Quest lineup.
Refresh Rate
Supports 72 Hz, 80 Hz, 90 Hz, and 120 Hz (experimental feature).
Field of View
110 degrees horizontally and 96 degrees vertically, expanding peripheral vision for more immersive virtual experiences.
Optics
With pancake lenses, the optical system is slimmer* while maintaining a high level of visual immersion. The center sharpness has improved by 25%, with up to a 70% improvement at the edges, and significantly fewer scattered light artifacts.
*Compared to Quest 2 without the interface pad.
Lens Adjustment
IPD range: 53–75 mm with a mechanical lens adjustment dial for smooth adjustments and clearer images.
The innovative optical design allows for a broader pupil distance range than before. Use the table below to determine if your IPD is supported by Quest 3:
| Mechanical Lens Adjustment (mm) | IPD Supported Range (mm) |
|---|---|
| 58 (min.) | 53–63 |
| ... | ... |
| 70 (max.) | 65–75 |
Direct Touch Hand Tracking
Advanced hybrid sensors combining image recognition and machine learning track gestures, while 4 infrared cameras and 2 RGB cameras enable controller-free navigation. Interact intuitively—just move your hands to touch, scroll, navigate, and play.
