Meta is reportedly developing two new VR headsets: the Meta Quest 4 and a high-end mixed-reality device that could replace the Quest Pro.
These upcoming headsets follow the success of the Quest 3 and Quest 3S, signaling Meta’s continued investment in immersive technology.
Meta Quest 4: A Next-Gen VR Experience
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the Meta Quest 4 is already in development, though specific details remain scarce. Notably, the report refers to it as “Quest 4 VR goggles,” which could indicate a refined design or new form factor.
Given Meta’s focus on affordability and performance, Quest 4 may improve upon the Quest 3’s better passthrough, processing power, and comfort while keeping the price competitive.
Quest Pro’s Successor: A True High-End MR Headset?
Rather than a Quest Pro 2, Meta is reportedly working on a new high-end mixed-reality device that builds on Quest 3’s features.
This headset may incorporate facial and eye tracking, a feature expected in premium MR headsets like Asus’ upcoming ROG VR.
Meta could also focus on enhancing gaming, entertainment, and productivity, key areas where Quest devices have seen success.
Meta’s Changing Strategy for VR and MR
The original Quest Pro was ambitious but struggled with its $1,500 launch price and mixed usability, leading to a price cut to $999. Meta seems to be shifting away from the “Pro” branding, instead refining its MR technology for broader appeal.
With Quest devices performing better than ever, these new headsets could solidify Meta’s dominance in VR and MR.
While an official launch is likely a while away, these rumors hint at exciting developments for VR enthusiasts.
