Meta Quest 3S refurb deal: 128GB model at $215.99 and 256GB model at $287.99, available through Meta Store on eBay with a 20% off coupon code TECH4THEM.

This price point is described as the lowest the author has seen for a Quest 3S with warranty.

The Quest 3S is pitched as a strong entry point for VR newcomers or as a gift option, offering affordability and hardware parity in most respects with the pricier Quest 3.

Core specs remain solid for the 3S, including the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, Touch Plus controllers with inside-out tracking, and mixed reality passthrough, though it uses Fresnel optics rather than pancake lenses like the Quest 3.

Both refurbished Quest headsets ship free and come with an extended two-year warranty provided by Allstate.

Compared to Quest 3, the 3S offers lower resolution (1832x1920 vs 2064x2208 for Quest 3), lacks pancake lenses, and provides smaller storage options (128GB/256GB vs up to 512GB on Quest 3) in some configurations.

Overall, the Quest 3S is presented as a strong value, delivering most of the Quest 3’s hardware and functionality at roughly 40% of the price.
