Another quick tip for passthrough, if you tap your headset anywhere twice it will automatically switch from VR to passthrough mode! 😮

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

Yep. Figured that out after accidently hitting it. Lol

[@jackalibur4919]

Been that way since quest 2 dude

[@ProgrammistMusic]

i think it's worth mentioning, that 120Hz does not automatically make games runs smoother, since it should be supported by the developer. Some games like ELEVEN, Racket Fury or First Person Tennis allow 120Hz, but most other games run at their default refresh rate.

[@virtuallyreal]

i'm a bit tired of hearing youtubers state this mode makes things super smooth, its on by default and as you say, very few games actually using it

[@midnightrocker7]

I would just leave 120Hz off, don't really need it anyway, I did that the Quest 2 and everything ran fine

[@ProgrammistMusic]

@@midnightrocker7for most games 120Hz is indeed not needed, but in games like ELEVEN, Racket Fury or First Person Tennis it makes a huge difference in gameplay. Everytime i go back to 90Hz from 120Hz in those games i feel like i am in a Charlie Chaplin movie.

[@SpraYeRS77]

Most games on a mobile chipset are never going to hit 120fps making the 120hz option less useful as it uses more battery. 90hz is still good.

[@ProgrammistMusic]

@@SpraYeRS77there is a huge difference between 90Hz and 120Hz for sports games like Tennis. After playing at 120Hz and then go back to 90Hz for testing it feels like a Buster Keaton movie. Also 120Hz on Quest 3 is the only way to watch 60fps movies without stutters. And last but not least a higher refresh rate can help with motion sickness.

[@gtamediaproductions1]

Just tried this over at a friend's place. Their Son received one for Christmas and let me try it. I did not want to take it off my head. 😂 It was so awesome! I'm waiting for the price to drop a bit here in Canada and pick one up for myself. My mind was blown from experiencing this unit.

[@baiano360]

What did you try and liked the most?

[@DieselFuel1310]

The price won't drop for a long time. They basically make nothing on the headset, they try to get you on the accessories or extra storage.

[@wally9159]

Yeah only 128 gb is 650$ no tax with tax it’s 700$ I know because I got it for my birthday it’s very good and if u want you can get gorilla tag for free it’s like a free workout while playing

[@spaceidiot200]

decided to pick one up just this week with the price reduction upgraded from the original quest 1

[@gavinczerniak]

I swear my vision between wearing my glasses and not wearing them is like the graphics between quest 2 and quest 3 😂😂

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

😂 Made me laugh!

[@tylermaccallum3529]

I absolutely agree. As someone who requires glasses to see two to having close and far vision on different eyes, it works perfectly. I've never had such a good time using VR before.

[@LunarByteProto]

Tip: you can tap the side of the headset twice to change from immersive or not extremely quickly!

[@adventuresinAI1982]

Good tips. That said 120 hz was on by default for me, so I turned it off to save power (I'm one of those people that don't see much difference between 72 and 90 even, lucky me I guess)

[@dave2blame444]

I don't notice much difference either, in fact, my PC runs better when 120Hz is not turned on....👍🏻

[@toidIllorTAmI]

I turned it off and now the option isn't there for me to turn it back on. Any ideas?

Hi from Singapore! Just got my Quest 3 yesterday. I wouldn't have known about the swipe typing if I hadn't watched your video. I'm used to swipe typing on my phone as well. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@richierich8647]

How is your pass-through so clear? Mine is mid at best.

[@milesfast]

I am also one who uses swiping on my phone. I’ve used it since 2016! Although I’ve noticed once i updated from my iPhone 5 to my iPhone 11 the phone chooses wrong words constantly and i spend half of my time deleting words. I hope this is fixed in newer iPhones. Also an annoyance is that I’ll be typing a sentence using swipe and it will create the correct word but the when i swipe my next word it changes the previous word to something else! It’s really frustrating. But swipe is otherwise much quicker and people are always asking me how i type like that, but i love it! ✌️😎

[@justinlee1421]

Find a 3rd party keyboard that uses swipe. If there's a version of the Google keyboard in Apple's market try that. Samsung is the same way the newer phones have a crappy swipe but Google's seems much better.

[@PhotoJohn80]

Nice video. I have one question I can’t seem to find an answer. Can you anchor the web browser to move with you in your house? Say you’re watching a KZbin video and you get up and move. Can you make it move with you? It just stays where I put it. Only way I can get it to move with me is i constantly hold the side where the outline is around the window.

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

Don’t think it’s possible yet but that would an awesome update if Meta added it as an option!

[@AnthonyGoubard]

Another setting to disable is cloud sharing. In the "Files" application, click on the cloud icon to disable it otherwise all media uploaded to your headset in /Pictures or /Movies will be by default sync with meta cloud.

[@manp1039]

wouldn't the meta cloud help you restore your headset or if you want to restore to a new headset? Also woulen't it allow you to view pics and videos you had recorded and download them using a pc? Or am i missing something?

[@CollinLutz-p9e]

​@@manp1039I believe it's more about privacy concerns. Which Facebook is known to not honor.

I don't have a quest 3 yet, but I am enjoying learning all these tips from you for future use. Also helps me to cope on not having one yet myself, haha!

[@justinlee1421]

Makes it extremely hard for Apple to justify $3000 more for the vision pro. Even when compared to the quest pro the vision pro is tailored to the owners ipd while the quest pro uses the eye tracking to automatically adjust the ipd for each user and it's still $2500 less then the vision pro. I don't know how Apple thinks they can come into the game this late with that kind of price tag and no controllers included or that you can even get which is another set of limitations all together.

[@mattb9664]

Didn't even know about those boundary settings! I got a Quest 3 for Christmas and the boundary setup was starting to get a little old..especially if I was choosing to use the device while seated.

[@Reprogrammed_By_SEGA]

The mixed reality stuff was a lot more fun than I expected. I think PSVR2 dropped the ball in this aspect. I think I'll wait for the Snapdragon X chipset as that will compete with Apple M2 which is a great deal more powerful.

[@faceofthemoment4571]

Absolutely agree. I’m loving the mixed reality so far - it’s cozy in some weird way.

[@Reprogrammed_By_SEGA]

Yeah, I really wanted a PSVR2 and I think Sony like Valve bet on AAA VR and that hasn't panned out at all. PSVR2 should have been like the Quest 3 but with the ability to go wired with a PS5 for those few AAA games. I'm concerned Sony will try some hack solution to bring the PSVR2 in line with Quest 3 with a battery add-on and wireless adapter and it will just be a mess. But at the same time they won't want to make a new headset as that will annoy their current base. I think Sony might just let the PSVR2 fade away as no one is going to wait another 6 years for them to get in the right direction. The only thing that could change this would be for Sony to hit PSVR2 hard with game changing AAA games on a consistent basis and I don't see that happening either.@@faceofthemoment4571

I'm excited about the Quest 3 for two reasons, mixed reality and the processing power that will improve the graphics on this device.

the higher resolution is a nice benefit also. I watch most of my media and movies in VR and the Quest 3 really shines in doing just this.

the 120Hz is on by default on Quest 3 that's why a lot of people are complaining about the bad battery life.

[@MalcolmLangille]

There is a new pass through button beside the notification icon now. Also double tap on the side of the headset works.

[@Mandrake42]

I really don't like the auto swap to hand tracking. I find it swaps to hand tracking if I move the controller too fast or if it in anyway goes out of the range of the cameras, I find that with auto on I am constantly wrestling for control of the headset as it swaps between controllers and the hand tracking incessantly. It can cause chaos mid game as if it does into hand tracking, I need to basically wrest control back. I have the autodetection turned off and have it set up so I need to tap the controllers together to get hand tracking, that way it is not something that can happen by accident, it has to be a deliberate choice on my part.

[@redcobra1246]

Pro tip for pass-through: you can double tap the side of your headset with your hand to enable and disable pass-through

[@interlinkedMedia]

I strongly recommend against enabling automatic software update for now. Causing issues with the quest remaining on when turned off.

Quick question for someone that is new to VR. How do you manage to make the UI float so low? Mine is always much higher so I have to tilt my head slightly upwards, while in your video you seem to tilt downwards which seems more comfortable.

[@tinobauer2149]

You can touch the VR Browser at the sides (a white boarder appears) and move it to the place you prefer. Near, far, up and down is all possible.

[@redcobra1246]

Also there is a white bar at the bottom of the interface. If you hold it (can't remember if trigger or grip) it will move wherever you want to. I use it when I move around the house

[@OnyxLee]

My room setup doesn't allow any shapes with more than 4 corners, but my room has 5 corners and multiple closets, so i need way more than 5 corners for my room setup. Any tips?

How does one eliminate the boundary?

[@star95]

I am noticing that the pass-through on your Quest 3 is very clear. However, mine has a bit of snowy noise on it, giving it a translucent, gel-like appearance. The noise only appears in the pass-through area, and the virtual display area is crystal clear. Does anyone else experience a similar issue? Could it be due to insufficient room lighting?

[@lincolntse4330]

You need to remember you are looking at your phone's small screen for a youtuber's video, in your head set it is a 110 fov * 90 fov screen so for sure the quality will drop quickly

[@aaronreleford5209]

It's 100% the lighting. Don't expose the lenses to sunlight, but take your quest outside on a sunny day. Passthrough is actually really clear but needs good lighting

[@manp1039]

I have heard that to get the clear bright color on pass through areas.. you need good lighting in your room. I think it would be fund to mount one or 2 flashlights to the headset or wear one of those head strap flashlights while wearing the head set and then see what the flash light does when in a dark room with the flash lights flashing into the space.. if it would give it a spooky feel.. and if the augmented reality would work with that kind of set up.

[@meyeame8956]

The room needs to be extremely well lit to have that crystal clear passthrough.

[@bongcleaning101withluke2]

I was kind of noticing that too I wasn't sure if it was lighting either but it kinda blurly and looks like an old android phone camara I"m just assuming it's due to my lighting but I haven't tried outside or in great lighting yet

[@MrTeeF]

On tip 5... just dubble tap your headset with your controller to turn passthrough on and off. ;)

[@DiscoVRTetiana]

It’s not the same ;) when you double tap, it simply turns on the passthrough, but you can’t operate the menu. But when you do as the tip says, you turn your home into the room where you can open the menu on top of it

[@SjaakSchulteis]

I dont know if you mentioned the double tap to go in passthrough. It is so sensitive in my Quest, it switched whenever I was playing beatsaber or any game where I needed to move my head. I turned it off. With the Pico4 I can let it on, because you need to tap really hard on the headset to activate it..
