A new update for Quest 3 increases battery life while using Steam Link or Meta-PC Link by 30-50% - while at the same time unlocking 120Hz for such PC-streamed games. This may sound paradox, but isn't, since the real work is done not by the Quest, buit the PC, and higher resolution images just get sent to the Quest 3 and must not be calculated by it.

Support for the new branch of 4000 series gfx boards by nVidia also is added, up to the 4090 series.

Some more changes and new features were added, that for most people probably are not that relevant.

Quest 2 and Pro also got lying modes, you cna use them while lying flat on your bed or couch, and still watch movies or play, or whatever. Its expected that this mode gets re-added to Quest 3 at a later time (it was planned or even implemented, but then was taken away for some unknown reason).
