Cyber Monday VR deals 2025: Last call on Meta Quest, Xreal, Samsung Galaxy XR

Virtual reality is a kind of tech that feels almost feels too futuristic, as if it should only be found in an expensive lab or a sci-fi movie. That said, if these Cyber Monday VR headset deals are anything to go by, VR tech is very much for the mainstream consumer these days.

In the final hours of Cyber Monday on Dec. 1, we've gathered three of the best VR/AR deals you can still shop on sale. You'll find deals on everything from helmet-style headsets with 8K video playback to more low-key AR glasses aimed at boosting productivity.

Whether you're interested in VR for work or for play, here are the best Cyber Monday VR deals to grab before the sales officially end later tonight.

Meta Quest 3s bundle

The Meta Quest 3s is one of the most affordable options for anyone who wants to get into virtual reality gaming. Mashable's reviewer wrote that she appreciated "its solid mixed-reality capabilities and access to Meta’s expansive content library," going on to say, "the budget-friendly price point makes it an attractive option, especially for newcomers or casual users looking to dip their toes into VR without splurging."

This bundle deal, which comes with two Meta Quest 3s systems, Batman: Arkham Shadow, and a three-month trial of Meta Horizon+ certainly emphasizes the budget-friendliness of this headset. It also makes for an excellent Christmas gift option. If you're only interested in one headset, you can also grab that along with the Batman game for just $249.

Xreal AR glasses

Mashable's Timothy Beck Werth still isn't sure whether these smart glasses are worth $599 — let alone their $769 full price — but he can't deny that these augmented reality glasses feel undeniably like they came from the future. He used the AR glasses to upgrade his work setup when it's limited on screen space, and appreciated that he still felt aware of the world, while getting the benefits of adding Slack messages to the side of his laptop display. While he ultimately prefers the Apple Vision Pro experience, he did say the Xreal glasses are a "much better entry point to AR for most people."

Samsung Galaxy XR Explorer's Pack

The Samsung Galaxy XR is by far the most expensive option on this list, but as Mashable's Matt Binder points out, it's basically a budget option when compared to the Apple Vision Pro. That doesn't mean it's worse all-around: Binder wrote that the Galaxy XR has better displays and is lighter overall.

Mashable contributor Adam Doud wrote that this headset is one of the most comfortable he's tried, and though he doesn't quite see the real utility of the headset just yet, but he was impressed by the screen resolution and spatializing (essentially 3D-ifying) features found on the photos and YouTube app. This Explorer's Pack doesn't markdown the $1,799 headset itself, but does throw in a few subscriptions for a Cyber Monday promo, including: one year of Google AI Pro, one year of YouTube Premium, NBA League Pass, and one year of Project Pulsar from Adobe, all of which amount to a $1,140 value.
