The Meta Quest 3 has been on the market for about a week now, and it's actually quite impressive.
Quest users can now enjoy an unmatched mixed-reality experience. However, this also means that there will always be someone, perhaps the most annoying tech enthusiast you know, who will take their Quest 3 out in public and possibly disrupt the fun for everyone around them.
Social media is slowly filling up with instances of individuals, humorously referred to as "Meta glassholes" by The Verge, and the videos are indeed peculiar. The reason behind this oddity is the Quest 3's full-color passthrough feature, which enables users to see their surroundings while wearing the headset. In comparison, its predecessor had a rather murky black-and-white passthrough mode, making it less appealing for such usage.
Thanks to this enhancement, the Quest 3's augmented reality potential has expanded exponentially, sometimes to a rather annoying extent.
While there's certainly nothing inherently wrong with, for example, ordering a coffee or indulging in some parkside painting with your Quest 3 headset, it can come across as a rather extreme example of doing something just for the sake of it, rather than for any practical use.
That being said, for your amusement, we've scoured the internet for our favorite and most peculiar examples of Quest 3 users venturing out in the world to perform mundane tasks that they could have easily accomplished without a $500 headset.
