    I just picked up my Quest 3 and definitely thinking about picking these up. While they don't seem like a worthy upgrade to the Touch + controllers on the Quest 3. I prefer the look of black (my hands get sweaty when play, and white plastic discolor easy), built rechargeable batteries, the texture plastic near the trigger will help with grip, and the extra weight (that help with immersion).

      No. These are only compatible with the Quest 2, Quest Pro and Quest 3 headsets.

    If only the setup as as simple as you mentioned. Mine shows in app like connected but then headset doesn't show controllers and instead keeps showing "Controller update in progress (Left 0%) (Right 0%)" and nothing seems to change. It's annoying. Seems like a lot of other people having issues too.

      I’m on day 4. The controller update is still at 0%, I keep removing them and re-pairing them and it just isn’t happening.

      @@nnnnopeitsmelori3073 I just spent from 5:28 to 6:41 talking to Support and trying different things. They concluded something must be wrong with the controllers and want to have me send these back and will send new ones. I'm worried it's just going to happen again. Probably just the universe telling me I shouldn't be wasting $300+, lol

      @@saoiray OMG! Don’t do it! Return them to the store you bought them at and get a refund then buy a new set. It could take these ‘no good customer service Meta people’ 6 months to send new ones out! Oh’ HELL NO! I’ll return them every 12 days until I get a pair that function properly before I ever trust Meta with anything being mailed to them. Heck, they can’t even answer an email in a timely manner. Please tell me you returned them to the store you purchased them from 🙏

    Great information and love the video as always. As a VR enthusiast myself, it is very difficult to find genuine and in depth product information out there. There is too much hype and personal opinions opposed to raw and helpful information. So thank you and know you are greatly appreciated.
    As far as the Pro controllers go, like all VR, it all depends on what each individual user wants or needs from their VR experience. For 99% of people, the regular Quest 2 controllers are more than enough. But I can understand why people would be willing to spend $300 on a set of controllers. If I had not moved on from my Quest 2 being my daily VR headset, then I would absolutely be purchasing a pair. Then again, I am an enthusiast and appreciate/enjoy all the little things related to VR. Not everyone can do this but I moved over to three 2.0 base stations mounted above my head level, angled down, in a triangle formation and using the Valve "knuckles" controllers. I can't go back to anything else now. I absolutely love the feel and gameplay the Index knuckles offer and with the base stations, there is never a tracking issue. I have not once had a controller drift or something not register or the HMD have an issue. And that is with both the Valve Index and Varjo Aero.
    But I can see the appeal of the Pro controllers. Yes $300 is pretty outrageous, but when the Quest 2 controllers are not cheap to begin with being $80 a piece. And if you compare them to other VR controllers that have similar features they are right on the price point. The Valve controllers that are also nearly $300 for a set and have been out for what is ages in the VR world.
    I see the Pro controllers appealing to a few groups of people.
    1) those who want the latest and greatest
    2) those who want a more premium or different VR experience but don't want to spend $700 on base stations and controllers then another $1000 on a VR headset
    3) those who play VR competitively whether that be in the IVRL or like your daughter
    4) those who have been waiting to upgrade to the "next gen" VR headsets that have been rumored to release for over a year now but since they have not yet released, can get a taste with the Pro controllers
    5) those who are like yourself and I that love VR and all VR related things.
    The Pro controllers do offer great features that you touched on (pun intended) like the haptic feedback, rechargeable, no ring, self tracking, etc. and would love to own a pair myself. This is a great step forward in the world of VR, especially for stand alone HMDs.
    I am curious though. Do the Pro controllers have that "stick drift" issue like the Quest 2 controllers have? Good ol' electrical contact cleaner always did the trick for mine but I am curious if they fixed that issue with the Pro controllers because that and not having to buy $10 worth of batteries a month would be worth the $300 haha.
    Thanks again for the great information and videos! Sorry about the book I wrote. Take care.

    Agree they are expensive but let's be honest thay will either launch the quest 3 without controllers(hand tracking only) or the same cheap controllers the quest 2 already has. Your probably safe buying these If you plan to upgrade to the quest 3 later on

    OKAY QUESTION SIR!! I would love it if you did a quick comparison to the cv1 controllers, cause the cv1 controllers are my favorite. i love the weight and durable high quality feel. Hate the cheap feel of the quest 2 controllers. SO not like a video or anyhing but id love for you to explain the similarities and negatives about each. I guesss what im asking is CV1 controllers are my favorite, do the pro controllers feel similar at all?

    As an expert on Meta Quest for a few years now, I wouldn’t say a few years, but I’ve mastered almost every game that is popular on Meta Quest and so I would say don’t even buy the Meta Quest pro controllers. I’m telling you right now it is not worth it for the price of $300 and it is just outrageous because you can get a brand new Meta Quest two for the price of that I mean for the good side. They are good on some games like gorilla tag scary baboon big scary, tactical assault VR ,onward ghost of Tabor, those are all pretty good games to use those controllers on but for the bad side it’s just it’s not good if they ever make the Meta Quest three controllers compatible with the Meta Quest quest two I would recommend buying it for the price of $148 to get both of thembut besides that don’t even try and spend $300 just for some controllers you can buy a bunch of games with that so don’t even

    As a Quest Pro user, I can confidently say: DO NOT BUY. The controllers are great on paper, but Facebook's software is absolute garbage and makes it nearly impossible to use my QP without the controllers constantly losing tracking or disconnecting. Right now it's absolute waste of money and a downgrade from the original controller design.
