At Meta Connect 2023, the company provided more details about the Quest 3, its upcoming mixed reality headset.
reveal at WWDC, today’s event provided even more details about what we can expect from the Quest 3 than we already knew before.
The Quest 3 is expected to achieve between two to three hours of battery life — about the same as the previous generation headset. While the new controllers run on removable batteries, the company is also releasing its own optional charging dock for users who don’t want to worry about having dead controllers when they go to use the headset. There’s already a big third-party market for this, so we’ll have to see how many people choose Meta’s offering over a likely cheaper option on Amazon.
The new headset, despite having a 40% slimmer optic profile, actually weighs heavier than its predecessor. Meta says that the Quest 3 weighs 515 grams — 12 grams heavier than the Quest 2. However, the company believes that its redesigned strap and updated design of the headset itself will still give users an enjoyable experience without it feeling too bulky. We’ll have to wait to see if that’s true once people get their hands on it.
