To power those extra pixels, this will be the first headset to feature a next-generation Snapdragon chipset developed in collaboration with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qualcomm.com\/home\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qualcomm Technologies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That next-gen Snapdragon chipset delivers more than twice the graphical performance as the previous generation Snapdragon GPU in Quest 2 \u2014 meaning you\u2019ll get smoother performance and incredibly crisp details in immersive games<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Immersive VR + Breakthrough Meta Reality in a Single Device<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On Quest 3, our best-in-class Meta Reality technology lets you seamlessly blend your physical world with the virtual one. These new experiences go beyond today\u2019s mixed reality by intelligently understanding and responding to objects in your physical space and allowing you to navigate that space in natural, intuitive ways that were nearly impossible before. High-fidelity color Passthrough, innovative machine learning, and spatial understanding let you interact with virtual content and the physical world simultaneously, creating limitless possibilities to explore.

We also completely redesigned Quest 3\u2019s Touch Plus controllers with a more streamlined and ergonomic form factor. Thanks to our advances in tracking technology, we\u2019ve dropped the outer tracking rings so the controllers feel like a more natural extension of your hands and take up less space. We also included TruTouch haptics that first debuted in Touch Pro to help you feel the action like never before. You can even upgrade to our fully self-tracked <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/quest\/accessories\/quest-touch-pro-controllers-and-charging-dock\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meta Quest Touch Pro Controllers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a premium experience. And hand tracking will be supported out of the box, so you can explore without controllers, thanks to Direct Touch that lets you use just your hands to interact with virtual objects<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">World\u2019s Best Library of Immersive Content<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quest 3 is compatible with the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/quest\/products\/quest-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quest 2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> catalog of over 500 VR games, apps, and experiences (and counting), and we\u2019ve got even more exciting new VR and MR titles lined up for launch. That means Quest 3 will have the world\u2019s best library of immersive experiences on day one. Be sure to tune in to today\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC766vkQw0Mz3VtXX5XvXxGQ\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meta Quest Gaming Showcase<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a rundown of new games and updates coming to the Quest Platform \u2014 plus a sneak peek at Quest 3\u2019s AAA flagship adventure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quest 2 Gets New Lower Prices, Plus a Performance Upgrade<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re excited for Quest 3 and look forward to sharing more later this year at Connect. But what about Quest 2?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/quest\/products\/quest-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meta Quest 2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> changed the face of VR when it first hit the scene in 2020, ushering in a new era of gaming, fitness, and more. It\u2019s already one of the most affordable ways to get into VR \u2014 and it\u2019s about to get even better. Starting June 4, we\u2019re lowering the price of Quest 2 to $299.99 USD for the 128GB SKU and $349.99 USD for the 256GB SKU, helping even more people access the magic of all-in-one VR and our vast content library.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that\u2019s not all! In an upcoming software update, we\u2019re updating the Quest 2 and Quest Pro GPU and CPU. Quest 2 and Pro will see an up-to 26% CPU performance increase with an up-to 19% GPU speed increase for Quest 2 and 11% for Quest Pro. As developers take advantage of these changes, you can expect smoother gameplay, a more responsive UI, and richer content on both headsets. And we\u2019re enabling Dynamic Resolution Scaling for both Quest 2 and Quest Pro, so games and apps can take advantage of increased pixel density without dropping frames.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Quest 3 sets a new standard for mixed reality, immersive gaming, and what a mainstream VR headset can be, Quest 2 remains our most affordable entry point to VR and Pro is optimized for work use cases, with face and eye tracking for more authentic self-expression in meetings. We\u2019ll continue to sell Quest 2 and Pro alongside Quest 3, as well as continue shipping new software updates to make the Quest experience even better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From games, to fitness apps, professional collaboration tools and more, Quest has something for everyone. And we can\u2019t wait to welcome even more people to the Meta Quest community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sign up to be the first to learn about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.meta.com\/quest\/quest-3\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meta Quest 3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And see all the highlights from today\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@MetaQuestVR\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meta Quest Gaming Showcase<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h5><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">* Without foam facial interface<\/span><\/em><\/h5>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v5.0\"><\/script><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2023\/06\/meta-quest-3-coming-this-fall\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark Zuckerberg just announced Meta Quest 3, our next-generation virtual and mixed reality headset, which launches later this year.
