Meta typically rolls out its latest headsets towards the year’s end, which means we usually have to wait until the following holiday season for any hefty discounts. However, this year we’re in for a pleasant surprise—especially if you’re browsing through Amazon—thanks to a remarkable Black Friday deal on the Quest 3S.
Fresh out of the gate, the Quest 3S made its debut just about six weeks ago. Given its recent launch, most of us didn’t anticipate it would see any price drops until at least next year.
Yet here we are with Amazon US offering an enticing deal: snag the 128GB Quest 3S at its standard $300 price and get an additional $75 in Amazon digital credit. Just remember to hit the ‘Redeem’ button on the product page, or simply enter the code QUEST75 when you check out.
For those familiar with Amazon’s landscape, that $75 credit is practically equivalent to cash. It effectively reduces your expense on the headset to $225, making it even cheaper than a brand new Nintendo Switch.
As part of this enticing Black Friday offer, you’ll also receive a free copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow—an experience we thoroughly enjoyed during our review—and a complimentary three-month trial of Quest+, which unlocks access to a variety of select VR games.
It’s important to note that this Black Friday steal is specific to the Quest 3S (128GB) model. Sadly, there aren’t matching deals available for either the 256GB version or the pricier Quest 3.
Why jump on this deal, you ask? The Quest 3S is already considered a fantastic buy on its own, given its impressive feature set at a reasonable $300. We honestly didn’t expect such an early holiday season deal after its fresh launch last month.
If you’re still torn between choosing the more budget-friendly Quest 3S or its counterpart, the Quest 3, be sure to check out our straightforward recommendation to help make your decision easier.
