quest 3 issues

[Jackie Paper]

The quest 3 looks great for me, except for when I have the link cable plugged in. Something weird happens to the bottom of my screen. It's a higher contrast then the upper part. It never happens over air link, only when i use the link cable. I returned my headset and got a new one from a different store I even tried 3 different quest link cables and it still does it on the new one. It looks like this (happens in all games) https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/oculus-quest-2-graphical-horizontal-brightness-line-pink/444385?replies_to_post_number=20
I have a 4080, ryzen 9 7900x and 32gb of ram. Anyone experience this?

They might just have to recall them all. From all the reports so far, sounds like complete junk if you ask me.

I've had the Quest 2 and HTC Vive Pro and never had any of these issues the Quest 3 has. It's like they rush this stuff and do not properly test them very long, or across multiple batches to see the issues the consumer ends up seeing.

I have not seen too much on the issue that Im having. i seen a few reddit posts and a few posts in other forums but that's about it. I hope they're not that much of a trash product that I could manage to get 2 defective devices. The first one I bought from Microcenter and the second i bought from target.

Is it that bad? Maybe some people are not noticing it.

It's pretty noticeable. It may be that most people are using air link? I'm not sure lol. That's why I'm so confused.

Given the fact that the Meta 3 battery life period is rather short, I can't see people noting using a cable to prolong their playing. So they can charge the battery and continue playing.

Yes it could be a defect, but I'm not sure. It could be the cable as well.

Try plugging the USB Type-C into a Phone/Tablet Wall Charger; as long as that charger supports 18W minimum. For example most Samsung Galaxy Wall Chargers since the S10 series supports upwards of 20-30 W

Seems like someone doesn't want to give useful information but still want's to put their two cents in... Look it up on google man it's something to do with quest settings. Happened and is still happening to me with the Quest 2 & Quest 3. Trying to fix it now because it's nauseating to see after awhile.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
