The Black Friday sales are officially in full swing. Gamers, right now, you can score deals on the likes of the PS5 Pro and the Nintendo Switch. Now, zeroing in on the best Meta Quest 3 deals – the headset was recently slashed in price by £150, following the launch of the budget-friendly Meta Quest 3S (was £289.99, now £275, Argos.co.uk). This means you can score the 512GB version of the original (and still the best) Meta Quest 3 for £469 – the cheapest it has ever been.
This isn’t technically a Black Friday deal, as the price of the headset plummeted before the event kicked off. However, the discount on the best VR headset we’ve tested is an enticing offer for anyone who’s tried out virtual reality and wants a more premium experience than the one offered by the cheaper Meta Quest 3S. The more expensive Meta Quest 3 uses higher-quality lenses for a sharper image, is slightly slimmer, and with 512GB of storage, it can store more games, videos and content.
Whether you’re looking to score a deal on gaming tech, or big-name brands like Ninja, Shark and Dyson, check out our Black Friday mega deals guide, where you’ll find the best deals on The Independent’s tried and trusted buys.

The Meta Quest 3 takes everything good and bad about the Meta Quest 2 and improves on it in every single way. While the newer and more affordable Meta Quest 3S is the better offer for most shoppers, the most premium VR headset in Meta’s range is still the best in terms of size, weight and visual fidelity.
“The Meta Quest 3 is an astounding virtual-reality headset, and is arguably the best consumer VR device currently out there,” our tech expert said in their review. “With full-colour passthrough, a faster processor, a more comfortable and ergonomic fit, as well as better hand tracking and, of course, those sweet, sweet pancake lenses that make everything so much more stable, this is the VR headset to beat.”
