There's been a lot of interest in virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) of late, what with Apple's Vision Pro being in the headlines aplenty. But one of the best AR headsets around is made by Meta, not Apple, and it's dropped price in a great Amazon deal. Well, it's actually dropped in price twice – with a last-day Amazon Prime deal slashing the price even further!

Check out the Meta Quest 3 deal on Amazon

That's thanks to the calendar ticking over into today, Wednesday 17th July, meaning the best Amazon Prime Day deals are now rolling out thick and fast – and with interest so high over the sales period, VR fans will want to be quick to snap up the limited low-price stock of the Quest 3. It had already gone, but has returned in an even-better deal, which is great to see.

Having used price-checking site, CamelCamelCamel, to verify that the Quest 3 was at its lowest-ever price, the third-party site agreed. But that was yesterday, when the price was £409.99. It's now dropped again, to just £368.99, meaning a mega £111 off in total. The previous best price was somewhere in the middle of those figures.

Reviewed by T3 last October, when the product first came to market, our Meta Quest 3 review praised the headset for bringing "superior virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR)" to the market. At the time we were hoping for a wider library of apps and games, but that's been expanding – with plenty to interest kids and adults alike.

This deal is for the 128GB version of the headset, as the more abundant 512GB storage model is significantly pricier. So long as you think that'll be ample space for your needs, however, then this Meta Quest 3 Prime Day deal is a standout option from Amazon's Prime Day sale – just be quick, as it won't last for long!
