Meta unveils 100g VR glasses to compete with Vision Pro

Meta has introduced its new VR glasses at Connect 2026, featuring a lightweight 100-gram design achieved by offloading processing and battery power to a separate external compute box. The device utilizes Micro-OLED 5K displays and supports hand-tracking, eye-tracking, and spatial audio. While offering a more portable form factor for media consumption, gaming, and virtual workspaces, the glasses feature a narrower field of view compared to the Quest 3. The product is positioned as a portable private theater and multi-monitor workstation with integration for various streaming services and productivity applications.
