Will Meta be the company that brings the average person into the metaverse? The company hopes its new headset will open VR beyond gaming
While reviewers say the Quest Pro is markedly improved from its predecessor in many areas, it comes with a heavy price tag, $1,500, that will likely keep the layperson away. Here’s what to know about Meta’s new device.The Quest Pro will be available for $1,499.99 on October 25. That’s more than triple the price of the Quest 2.
One of the most cutting edge features of the Pro is its eye tracking, which lets your avatars mimic your facial expressions with uncanny accuracy. Users can now wink, blow out their cheeks or make eye contact with other users. Meta hopes that this upgrade will make socializing in VR feel much more connective and visceral, although many people have concerns about how all of this biometric data will be used.
