A new rumor suggests that Meta will team up with LG to release a higher-end Quest Pro headset to compete with Apple's Vision Pro.
headset at its Worldwide Developer Conference, its yearly event where developers and the rest of us learn about the company’s latest updates to its operating systems. In addition to showing off the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, macOS, and tvOS, the company also unveiled the Vision Pro and visionOS, its new operating system for spatial computing.
It didn’t take long for the comparisons between the Vision Pro and Meta’s Quest Pro to start flying — even if no one has actually gotten their hands on Apple’s headset yet. However, even with that being the case, it seems obvious that Apple’s headset is going to absolutely annihilate the Quest Pro in almost every metric. That, in addition to the Quest Pro having a lukewarm reception on its own, is spelling bad news for Meta’s Pro mixed-reality headset.
The report says the “industry estimates” the headset could be named “Quest 4 Pro”, but this is unlikely. Analysts and reports often get the name of future products wrong while still accurately describing the device. For example, several sources suggested Quest Pro would be named “Quest 2 Pro” and that Apple Vision Pro would be called “Apple Reality Pro”.
While that price is still almost half of the cost of the Apple Vision Pro, I’m hoping it will mean that Meta has found ways to cut costs in some areas while still competing with Apple on where it counts.
