Meta Horizon was the #1 free iPhone app on Christmas Day 2024.
The app is required to set up Quest headsets, suggesting Quest 3S and Quest 3 were very popular Christmas gifts in 2024.

Quest 3S launched in October, bringing the color mixed reality and higher fidelity VR capabilities of Quest 3 to the $300 price point. “100K+ bought in past month” on Amazon US alone.
