Meta, which ranks first in the extended reality (XR) headset sector, is reportedly planning to release a low-cost XR headset. According to Tom's Hardware on the 7th, Meta is expected to unveil the Quest 3S, a low-cost model of the Quest 3, currently priced at $499, at its annual developer event 'Connect' to be held on September 25th. The Quest 3S is expected to be priced at $349-$399 and will replace the Quest 2, currently priced at $299. Meta may remove features such as passthrough functionality or pancake lenses to reduce costs.
Meta released its latest XR headset, the Quest 3, last year, but it failed to generate as much buzz as the Quest 2. It is known that more than 500,000 units have been sold so far, but it falls short of the Quest 2, which has sold over 20 million units. Apple's Vision Pro, released in February this year, has also failed to achieve significant success, and the XR headset market is in need of a breakthrough.
