A distinctive feature of the Meta Quest 3S's appearance is the camera on the front of the headset. The Meta Quest 3 has three camera modules, one on each side and in the center, while the Meta Quest 3S has three cameras on each side, for a total of six.

In November 2023, the Wall Street Journal reported that Meta had signed a deal with Chinese company Tencent to release a cheaper version of the Meta Quest 3 for China. According to the Wall Street Journal, this cheaper version will use the Fresnel lens used in the Meta Quest 2 and will be equipped with the same Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 as the Meta Quest 3, and is expected to be released outside of China.
According to VR news site UploadVR, the distinctive look of the Meta Quest 3S was leaked in March 2024 from a presentation document leaked from Meta's design system research, but at the time there were many doubts that the image was fake.
However, in June 2024, it became a hot topic again when it was seen in a video posted on Threads by Meta's CTO (Chief Technology Officer), Andrew Bosworth.
In late July 2024, the following photo was posted on X, showing that the Meta Quest 3S has a 'design with three cameras on the left and right.' This photo was reportedly leaked by a VR headset accessory manufacturer.
