Keen-eyed Redditors have spotted an image of an unreleased Meta VR headset in the official Meta Quest Link PC software. Rumored to be called the Quest 3S, the new headset will likely act as an entry-level alternative to the Meta Quest 3,

Meta appears to have leaked the Meta Quest 3S, its rumored budget follow-up to last year’s Quest 3 headset, in its own Windows Meta Quest Link PC software. Spotted by UploadVR, the images posted on Reddit show a VR headset that’s visually a bit of a cross between the Quest 2 and Quest 3.

A new, cheaper, and possibly controller-less virtual reality headset from Meta is on the way, with an image of the device being discovered.

Meta Connect is kicking off on September 25. Here’s what we’re expecting based on all the rumors and leaks leading up to the special event.

A leaked image suggests Meta is developing a budget VR headset, the Quest 3S, with a design combining elements of Quest 2 and Quest 3.

Meta has leaked an image of the supposed Quest 3S via an update to its PC software, showing off what is likely the upcoming cheaper alternative to Quest 3. As first spotted by Reddit user ‘Gary_the_mememachine‘,

Just weeks remain until Meta is expected to lift the lid on the Quest 3S, the spiritual successor to the multi-million-selling Quest 2 VR headset.

The Quest 3 is 40% smaller than the Quest 2 with the Quest 3 featuring pancake optics to allow for higher resolution lenses in smaller spaces. The 3S might feature pancake optics as well, which should make it smaller than the Quest 2. However, it might also have fresnel lenses, which aren't as flat, and feature in the Quest 2.

The latest Meta Quest 3s leak happened from the Oculus Link app, which suggest Meta could launch the VR headset soon.

Meta is working on an affordable VR headset, which has now reportedly leaked: the Meta Quest 3s. Official images of the headset leaked through Meta's PC app called "Oculus Link". The device is yet to be officially acknowledged by the company.
