BoboVR is a Cheaper Meta Quest 3 Charging Dock
BoboVR is now selling a considerably cheaper charging dock for Meta Quest 3, providing an alternative to the official Meta charging port which costs slightly more.
It is referred to as BoboVR D3 and charges the Quest 3 headset, the Touch Plus controllers (which are recharged wirelessly through the rechargeable batteries), and a B100 battery. The battery is used with the separately sold BoboVR S3 Pro Super Strap headband which has a replaceable battery. It isn’t clear yet whether the charger can also recharge the battery in the S3 Pro Super Strap, that is, two batteries simultaneously.
The controllers are charged using the BoboVR G3 Plus Grips.
According to BoboVR, its charging dock can charge not only the Quest 3 headset but also the controller and the battery in under three hours when used with a 45+W charger, which is also sold separately. Users can also use the 18 W charger that ships with the Quest 3 headset and is compatible with the BoboVR D3 charger.
The BoboVR D3 charger is sold at $70, including shipping costs and users can enjoy a 10% discount until August 30. In comparison, Meta’s charging dock retails at $130, almost twice as much, and also ships without a charger.
The Meta charging dock has some advantages. For instance, you won’t have to charge the Quest 3 headset manually. It gives you an all-in-one charging station in one place and allows you to use your Quest 3 headset more often. The charging dock combination also looks great.
On the flipside, it carries a hefty $130 price tag and you will also need to purchase a 45W charger to realize the full potential of the charging dock.
