Meta said earlier this month that it would shift resources to the metaverse, firing thousands of employees. Is its virtual reality headset worth the price?
The company's"most advanced headset" – the first in a new"high-end class" of VR headsets – costs a hefty sum of nearly $1,500.
In a release, Meta said that it enables"full-color mixed reality," blending virtual experiences with the physical world and comes with high-resolution sensors, next-generation pancake optics, advanced LCD displays and a sleek and comfortable design with eye tracking and Natural Facial Expressions. "Meta is positioning the new Meta Quest Pro headset as an alternative to using a laptop," Rolf Illenberger, founder and managing director of VRdirect, told The Associated Press, noting that for businesses, operating in the virtual worlds of the metaverse is still"quite a stretch."
It is available to consumers where Meta Quest products are supported online and at select retailers, including Best Buy and Amazon.
