Introducing Meta Quest Pro

Oct 11, 2022

This is Meta Quest Pro, a completely reimagined headset. An all-new ergonomic design. Premium comfort. More power. Thinner, sharper, brighter display. Full color mixed reality. Self-tracking controllers. This is our most advanced VR headset to date.

The new Meta Quest Pro adds ‘mixed reality’ and face-tracking capabilities. But even with the upgrade, what makes the metaverse better than the internet we already have on phones and laptops?

Meta’s new face computer is more comfortable and has better visuals, plus facial-expression tracking. But for $1,500, with short battery life, it’s a bit out of touch with reality.

Meta Quest Pro review: A next-gen headset for the VR faithful

Oct 31, 2022

Compared to the Quest 2, the Quest Pro features a ton of upgraded tech and VR capabilities including a Qualcomm XR2+ chip, full-color pass-through cameras, and 10 sensors scattered across the headset for improved object detection and hand/finger tracking. The Quest Pro also has brand-new optics that are 40 percent thinner than Meta’s previous headset while delivering a 90Hz refresh rate and a high resolution of 1,800 x 1,920 pixels per eye. Unfortunately, while the Quest Pro represents a huge step up in terms of specs and features, its high price of $1,500 and a lack of optimized apps (at least at launch) make it a hard sell for all but the most die-hard VR enthusiasts.

Pros
- Excellent optics
- Comfortable and easy to put on
- Surprisingly good battery life
- Sold built-in speakers with spatial sound
- Included wireless charging dock
- Sophisticated interior and exterior sensors

Cons
- Very expensive
- Somewhat heavy
- Currently not a lot of optimized apps
- Scene understanding can get confused in cluttered rooms
