CTOnews.com October 25 news, Meta's latest Quest 3 headset has a more powerful processor and a higher resolution display. However, this has also led to a decline in battery life, which many users are dissatisfied with.

To solve this problem, Meta launched the first post-launch update for Quest 3, the Quest v59 update, which adds a power-saving mode to extend usage time by reducing the quality of graphics, which can be found in the "Power" option in the settings menu.

While the power-saving mode will certainly improve the battery life of the head display, it also sacrifices graphics quality, which is one of the major upgrades of the Quest 3 compared to the previous generation. Meta did not specify how to reduce the quality of the graphics, whether to reduce the refresh rate, increase the loading time, or whatever.

In addition to the power saving mode, the v59 update for Meta Quest 3 brings a number of other new features and fixes, including:

YouTube LVB chat can be enabled in the header display, so that users can see and reply to comments during the live broadcast without having to take off the header display. This feature is still in the pre-emptive trial stage and needs to be applied to Meta before it can be used.

A shortcut has been added that allows users to jump to the error report form by pressing the Meta / Oculus button on the right-hand controller five times when they encounter problems in the game.

You can reply to your friends' messages with facial expressions or avatar stickers instead of using words every time.

An activity tab has been added to the characters panel to make it easier to see what games your friends are playing and join the group chat. There are also recommended apps and games that allow users to play with their friends.

For newly purchased Meta Quest 3 users, there is a "suggested boundary" feature that automatically suggests an editable game boundary based on the surrounding environment without having to draw from scratch every time.

For mixed reality games, there is an Auxiliary Space Settings feature that allows you to quickly scan the surrounding environment and create a simple room surface model, including walls, tables, and other furniture when you open a mixed reality application. Without manually adding them to the space.

Improved hand display in Meta Quest 3 perspective mode, making it more comfortable for users to operate panels and applications in mixed reality.

CTOnews.com noted that Meta also promised to gradually push Remote Display apps (originally unique to Quest Pro) to Meta Quest 3 and 2, allowing users to view their desktops in a header display. In addition, the avatar in Horizon Home will have legs for the first time. There is also a family-centric feature that allows parents to set daily use limits and rest times for their children or teenagers in the Meta app.

Meta has been updating Quest 2 since its release, and will do the same with Quest 3.
