Meta has announced Meta VR Glasses, which the company calls “our most advanced device yet,” with a spring 2027 launch date and a price of $1,299.99. Powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon Reality Elite processor, the glasses will weigh about 100 grams.
The glasses are about five times lighter than the Meta Quest 3 because Meta has split the hardware into a ‘two-part system,’ the company wrote in a blog post on Wednesday, September 23. The glasses contain the display and sensors, while a separate puck handles computing, storage and the battery. The puck connects to the glasses through an optical tether and can clip onto a pocket or bag.
