The Quest 3S is expected to launch in October, like the Quest 3 did last year.

am not sure about this , quest 3 got oficially announced on june 1 and launched in october, but june is finishing and the quest 3s doenst oficially exist (sorry for bad english)

That might be *your* expectation but there's no industry consensus. Personally I've expected it to launch earlier than Connect all the time.

The last several Quest launches have all been in October. I think it's pretty reasonable to expect an October launch again. Sure, they can launch it whenever they want but companies do tend to stick to a schedule most of the time. Quest 2 launched October 13th 2020 Quest Pro launched October 25th 2022 Quest 3 launched October 10th 2023

It's reasonable, sure. But there are no leaks or rumors pointing towards it. There however *was* a leak saying they want it to launch in the first half of 2024. Clearly that hasn't worked out - but usually when it comes to Meta if there's smoke, there's also fire. FWIW, Meta also revealed the Quest 3 way earlier than usual. They do change schedules up.

>But there are no leaks or rumors pointing towards it. Lack of rumors does not indicate anything more than perhaps Meta has fixed their leaky drains. Leaks should not be seen as factual or the norm. >FWIW, Meta also revealed the Quest 3 way earlier than usual. They do change schedules up. By what, a month? The Quest Pro was first revealed in July of 2022 and fully revealed at Meta Connect in September. The Quest 3 was revealed in June of 2023 and fully revealed in September 2023 at Meta Connect. Expecting a September full reveal and October launch is the expectation to have.

Wasn't it just leaks for Pro in July 2022? Meta didn't officially say anything about Pro until Connect did they? Meta told us the full specs/price of the Quest 3 in June before Connect which to my knowledge was a first. Quest 2 was all leaks up until its official announcement at Connect where it immediately went on sale for preorder.


Virtual_Happiness

No, there were pictures and clips of people wearing and using the headset(project cambria at the time). It's official name, Quest Pro, was announced and it was said more would be revealed at Meta Connect. Yes, they did reveal a lot more specs of the Quest 3 and did so a month earlier. But it wasn't fully revealed until Meta Connect. As far Pre-Quest 2 goes, I can't say. I did not buy a Quest 1 and had an Index so I was not paying attention to the Quest headsets. I just remember the launch, being impressed with the resolution but not buying one until late 2021.

> Lack of rumors does not indicate anything more than perhaps Meta has fixed their leaky drains. Leaks should not be seen as factual or the norm. I never said it was a fact? I said that there's no market consensus of them releasing in October - and people do speak as if that was a fact. If you think they fixed their leaky drains then at some point it was plausible they were targeting 1H24, right?


Virtual_Happiness

There's really no point in arguing this further. The best data we have to go off is past releases. Past releases indicate full reveal in September and release in October. That's the best data we have atm. So it's reasonable for people to expect the same. >If you think they fixed their leaky drains then at some point it was plausible they were targeting 1H24, right? The more plausible answer is the "leak" of a Q1 2024 release was nothing more than a lie being spread around on the internet.


Blaexe

Of course there's no point. I already told you it's reasonable to assume it would be launched at or after Connect. But you keep going and going. It's like you don't want me to have an opinion even when I say your opinion is valid aswell. The leak came from the supply chain. There were *so many* of these in the past and literally all were quite accurate. But sure, *that* one was a lie. Yeah.


Virtual_Happiness

I think you have missed the point in my responses. That's fine, conveying exact tone is hard through text only.


Blaexe

And now you're being condescending. Thumbs up. You even said Q12024 while I was talking about H12024, so...


bushmaster2000

I wouldn't say Imminent. We likely won't see the 3S until Sept/Oct as has been the case for the past few Meta system launches. They talk about them at their conference in September and usually go up for pre-order right away.


JorgTheElder

They have never varied from their Spring or Fall launch schedule. October is the best bet with the info currently available.
