Most Black Friday deal posts measure a discount against whatever number the store prints next to it. This page does not. Every price below was checked on the store's own page, carries the date we checked it, and is compared with the price you would pay any other week. The Quest 3S lists at $349.99 since Meta's April price increase, so this year's best headset deals still cost more than last year's. Our price check explains why.
The Amazon buttons are affiliate links: VR.org earns a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Store buttons go straight to the store.
VR headset deals
Retailers moved before Meta did. Meta's own store had no Black Friday price yet when we checked, only an email sign-up for early access, and nobody has cut the Quest 3.

Black Friday 2026 vs 2025: the same headsets, a year apart
The best price on each headset this Black Friday, next to last year's from UploadVR's November 28, 2025 roundup. Every one costs more, mostly because of Meta's April price increase, which it blamed on the cost of memory chips.

Looks like a deal, is not one
Six listings we keep seeing this month, and why to skip them.
- Not a deal
"GOLF+ included" at $349.99
- Every Quest 3 and 3S bought through January 4 comes with GOLF+, wherever you buy it. At $349.99 that is the list price. Why
- Not a deal
Quest 3 "Black Friday" banners at $599.99
- That is its list price at Meta, Best Buy and Amazon. Last year it was $500 with a $75 gift card. Why
- Not a deal
XREAL AURA at "$180 off"
- $1,099 is the launch price XREAL charges everyone through December, and Best Buy's Black Friday tag shows the same number. Why
- Not a deal
Valve Index at $399.20
- Headset only. Valve no longer makes it and lists no controllers or base stations, so you cannot build a working kit from its store. Why
- Not a deal
PS VR2 from $736
- Marketplace resellers, not Sony, asking more than double last year's $300 Black Friday price. Why
- Not a deal
$30 to $50 "VR headsets"
- Plastic shells for your phone with no tracking, no controllers and no games. Put the money toward a Quest instead. Why

Frequently asked questions
When is Black Friday 2026?
Black Friday is Friday, November 27, 2026, and Cyber Monday is November 30. Plenty of VR deals are already live: Walmart cut the Quest 3S two weeks early, XREAL's codes work now, and Rokid and RayNeo are running early sales. Steam's Black Friday discounts run from November 26 to 30, and Sunglass Hut's Meta glasses sale runs from November 20 to 30.
Is the Quest 3S on sale for Black Friday 2026?
Yes, at retailers. When we checked on November 14, Walmart had the 128GB Quest 3S at $297.49 and the 256GB at $382.49, both sold by Walmart, and Best Buy's $297.49 doorbuster with a $50 gift card had sold out. Meta's own store was still at $349.99. Last Black Friday the same headset reached $250, before Meta raised its prices in April.
Is the Quest 3 on sale for Black Friday?
Not anywhere we checked. The Quest 3 is $599.99 at Meta, Best Buy and Amazon. The cheapest Quest 3 from a store is Meta's refurbished one at $549.99 with a one-year warranty. Last year Best Buy sold it at $500 with a $75 gift card.
Is GOLF+ with a Quest a Black Friday deal?
No. Every qualifying Quest 3 and Quest 3S bought through January 4, 2027 comes with GOLF+, a premium course and 1,800 in-game credits, wherever you buy it and at full price too. A listing that sells the bundle as a Black Friday extra is not giving you anything more.
Can you buy a PS VR2 on Black Friday 2026?
Not new from Sony in the US: PlayStation Direct stopped listing the headset there, and what is left are marketplace resellers asking $736 and up. In the UK, Sony's own store still sells it at £399.99. If you already own one, PlayStation's Black Friday sale covers PS VR2 games through November 30.
Are smart glasses on sale for Black Friday?
Some are. Meta is clearing the original Ray-Ban Meta from $224, Amazon has the HTC Vive Eagle at $399.99 instead of $499, and Rokid's fall sale has its AI Glasses Style at $299. Meta's current Gen 2 and Gen 3 glasses are full price at Meta, but Sunglass Hut takes 25% off Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 and Oakley Meta HSTN from November 20 to 30.
