One of the top picks during Amazon's best Prime Day deals is for an AN/VR headset personal favourite – the Meta Quest 3. Amazon had cut the price once already, before the deal seemingly sold out, but now it's back and suddenly the price has dropped even further!

A double discount is a rarity, but that's thanks to the calendar moving into the tail-end of Amazon's Prime Day. That's also why I suggest you be quick if this deal is of interest – it sold out once, so it'll no doubt sell out again at this even lower price.

As always, I use price-checking site CamelCamelCamel to verify record price lows – and can confirm the Quest 3 is now at its lowest-ever asking price. It's dropped from an already decent deal price of £409.99 by even more to an incredible £368.99. That's triple-figures of discount.

The headset was first reviewed by T3 back in October, and my colleague was impressed, as he wrote in the Meta Quest 3 review. The headset brings "superior virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR)" to the market. Sure, it could do with some more games and apps, but I love what's available – if you find one favourite, for you or the family, that'll mean hours of entertainment.

This double-discount deal is for the 128GB version of Meta's headset, as the more significant 512GB storage model is way pricier, so I'd avoid that one on a cost basis. So long as you think that'll be ample space for your needs, then this Meta Quest 3 Prime Day deal is a standout option for me. Just be quick, as it won't last for long!
