Upgrading from quest 3s to quest 3

I have a 3s and want a quest 3 as well so I have 2 headsets .I paid almost 300 for the 3s so dont want to pay full price for a quest 3 as well . Would I be able to get a quest 3 headset only off ebay and use my 3s controllers and charger etc from my 3s ? Can yous help what exactly I would need . Is it just a quest 3 headset and battery .

    Hey there alza1988,

     

    We've just come across your post regarding inquiring if you would be able to use the controllers of your Meta Quest 3S if you bought a Meta Quest 3 headset.  We can confirm that you would be able to use the controllers when using a Meta Quest 3S or Meta Quest 3. Also, you would be able to use the same charging cable with both headsets.

     

    We hope this helps and wish you a continued great time in the world of VR!

  • Hi alza1988​ 🙂

    If you can get a complete Quest 3 set for a good price, you should consider buying that instead of only the headset.

    You said, you want keep the Q3s  and although your controllers work with Q3 and Q3s, you need to unpair them from one device and repair them to the other device every time you switch the headset.

    Also, if you have two headsets, you can play  together with a friend or family member...... if you have controllers for both headsets.

    Just something to think about😉

      If you have a Game XChange in your area, check there. I was able to get a used Quest 3 with controllers on black friday for $300
