Sure there are other headsets on the market that might perform "exceptionally better", but the truth is, you can get almost all of the "special stuff" in the quest 3 for half the price. The design is great, the display is an improvement over the quest 2 and the mixed reality is very cool. You might say that this headset is not a good choice to play PC games on, but it really is... Just plug in your USB-C 3.0 cable to your quest and PC, and there you have it. Don't waste your money on headsets that cost twice as much. The valve index is a very powerful headset but it's old and falling apart. Meta pro has stopped production because sales sucked, and the quest 3 is literally better in performance. I have to say it but the HTC headsets just aren't it in terms of design and layout (in my opinion). PSVR 2 is only compatible with PS5. And then you have headsets like the Vision pro and Varjo aero selling for insane amounts. The only other headsets I would recommend looking into is Pico.

This is a virtual reality headset with a truly high resolution. It has a feature that transitions you between the real world and is equipped with high-quality cameras. Thanks to the depth sensor, you can perceive objects in your environment and interact with them in your gaming environment... I definitely recommend it...
