Are you planning to give or receive a gently used Meta Quest 2 or 3 this holiday season? If so, be aware that your augmented reality headset may encounter significant issues following a recent software update, with numerous users reporting problems on online forums.
Initially, Meta proposed out-of-warranty replacements for $150, a suggestion that did not sit well with users. In response, the company has offered a temporary fix: turning off the headset by pressing the power button for 45 seconds, which may help resolve the issue.
Meta has indicated that a more permanent solution is in the works, though details remain scarce.
The bricking issue specifically affects the Meta Quest 2 and 3 models, while the newly released 3S model appears unaffected. The Meta Quest line offers an array of immersive experiences, including gaming, fitness applications, and interactive content.
