Meta's canceled Quest Pro 2 could pave the way for a major VR headset redesign in 2027 – and I'm all for it

Meta Quest 3.

Meta may have reportedly dumped its plans to launch a Meta Quest Pro 2 in 2027, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be serving mixed reality goodness that year. According to a new report, we could see a pair of light mixed reality glasses – codenamed ‘Puffin’ – launch instead, and if the leaks are true Puffin sounds like a fantastic alternative to the canceled headset.

Once again coming via The Information (behind a paywall) – who also shared details of the ‘La Jolla’ cancellation (the VR headset project likely set to be the Quest Pro 2) – Puffin is described as a 110g device that’ll look like opaque glasses offering VR and MR experiences using pancake lenses and passthrough cameras.
