Meta's New Quest 3 VR Headset Gets Low Marks for Repairability in iFixit Teardown
- Meta's new Quest 3 VR headset gets torn down by iFixit, who find its repairability disappointing.
- Replacing the battery is very difficult, though the controller batteries being AA is a plus.
- It has a Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip for improved performance over Quest 2.
- The new headset uses LCD displays instead of micro-OLED like the Quest Pro.
- iFixit gives it a low 4/10 repairability score for lack of manuals, spare parts, or repair considerations.
