Meta unveils $299 Quest 3S VR headset, Orion AR glasses prototype
Meta announced the Quest 3S, the latest virtual reality headset to come out of the company’s Reality Labs division and a cheaper offering than its predecessor.
The device will go on sale on Oct. 15, and it’ll retail starting at $299, down from the $499 starting price for 2023′s Quest 3. The device can be used to watch movies, as well as run VR fitness apps and gaming, Meta said Wednesday at its Connect event in Menlo Park, California. The company positioned the headset as a multitasking computer, putting it in competition with Apple’s $3,499 Vision Pro headset that launched in February.
In addition to the Quest 3S, Meta on Wednesday also showcased its latest prototype of augmented-reality smart glasses and announced a flurry of new features for its Meta AI chatbot.
no thanks
Day 29382828 of waiting for Valve to announce an all in one Steam VR headset so I don't have to sell my soul to Zuckerberg
If it wasn't Facebook, I would have bought one already.
I wanna get into VR so damn bad but I do not want to make purchases with a fucking Facebook account
(And I also can't mount sensors all over my room for standard VR.)
I would never buy anything made by Meta, even if it was the best around.
you all are my kind of people
