Is there really that big of a difference. I just got the 2 because it was only 300
Quest 2 vs 3 |
I have the 2. My wife has the 3. I haven't messed with hers yet she just got it for Christmas. I do know that the 3 is fast and more powerful. It also has a color camera for when you walk around outside the zone. It recognizes your hands without the controllers for some applications. Has solid augmented reality.

Wired to PC so I can use my headset, mic, better performance, to record, use PC only tools, etc. And so it doesn't die in 2 hours.

I have the Quest 2 and Quest 3. I didn't know I could wire them to the PC. Where do you plug it in at? Just a really long USB C cable? Do you still stand up and move around with it or how are you doing it? I'm very intrigued right now. Don't fall for a scam, use a middleman! [Safe Trading Guide] Middleman Services

The 2 hours battery time is really annoying, I'm assuming it's always on "charge mode" when connected via PC? Also yeah, it's USB C cable. You could get one from Amazon cheaper than Meta imho and about 5 meters should be enough. Edit: OP, Quest 3 is much better than 2. Significant difference. That is if you enjoy the MR experience, better quality/performance, auto boundary zones so you don't get knocked out while immersed etc etc. ![[Image: Screenshot-2026-01-14-231442.png]](https://i.ibb.co/WNK6RSGz/Screenshot-2026-01-14-231442.png)

I could show you the setup on discord if you'd like. It goes into a USB-C port. It goes into the back of my pc to the motherboard. I could stand up, but I usually sit down when I use it.

If you play wired, you can have it charge the whole time or you can just play while it charges in the wall. I recommend kiwi gear to make the quest feel better. I use the Quest 2, so I got the kiwi headstrap (literally a life changing piece of gear for the Quest). And there's a bigger battery they have on their website. https://www.kiwidesign.com/ 
I own the Quest 2, and the Quest 3. I like the lightness of the Quest 3, it feels lighter on my head, and has more features. Like the full-color passthrough cameras. My only problem with the Quest 3, due to it drawing so much power, it can't charge while you play PCVR. On my Quest 2, I can charge while playing PCVR, and never run out of battery, allowing me to play for however long I want. On the Quest 3, I only get 2-3 hours of battery life.
Hopefully the next Quest headset has more battery life, because that seems to be the only drawback for me with the Quest 3. 🦀Windows is dead🦀
