At Meta Connect, the Facebook co-founder revealed on Wednesday the Meta VR Glasses, a smaller and slimmer device compared to the company’s older Quest-branded family of VR headsets, and a handheld device called the Muse Charm that works with the company’s recently released Muse AI personal agent. He revealed the products while speaking on stage at the annual Connect conference for developers.
The Meta VR Glasses are slimmer and lighter than the company’s older Quest-branded VR headsets, but they are also more expensive, costing $1,299 when they go on sale in spring 2027. They represent Meta’s first VR device since 2024, when the company debuted the $299 Quest 3S.
The Meta VR Glasses are powered by an external puck that houses a Qualcomm processor and battery, allowing it to function as a mini-computer that also helps reduce the glasses’ overall weight and size. The glasses are able to display better visuals than the older Quest headset, and contain sensors that track users’ eyes and hand movements, which reduces the need to use controllers to interact with the device.

Since the handful of ultra rich control AI with soon to arrive US Government shelters from lawsuits and local areas attempts to refuse data centers, they have enough money to give them away. But they’re too greedy and insatiable.
Well, porn has always been the driver of tech development.
These are just weird pervert glasses. There’s no way to argue around that.
Seriously, who TF wears this sh*t except as a joke, or a product demo, other than Zuck the cuck?
What's that you say? "Full-immersion porn"?
Eeeww-www.
Yeah...no.
Hard pass.
