Finally, you can watch Avatar in 3D HFR at home.
3D movies have been, and continue to be, a bit of a gimmick. But the technology can also be used well — just take a look at James Cameron's Avatar films, or CG movies like Moana and Zootopia. With the death of 3D TVs, though, there haven't been many easy ways for consumers to see 3D content at home. Enter the VR headset: For years, intrepid VR owners have been ripping 3D Blu-rays to enjoy on their stereoscopic displays. Apple made 3D films a key selling point for the Vision Pro. And now Meta has finally jumped into the game with its own library of 3D films for Quest 3 and 3S headsets, which launched alongside a new Disney+ app featuring 3D content and environments. Finally, you can enjoy Tron: Legacy as it was truly meant to be seen (sort of).
As someone who's spent dozens of hours watching 3D movies on the Apple Vision Pro, I was keen to see how Meta delivered them on significantly cheaper headsets. My big takeaway? 3D movies are an exciting new feature for existing Quest 3 and Quest 3S owners, but they're also constrained by the company's OS.
