Meta is cutting prices for its VR headsets | CNN Business

The company announced Friday that it is slashing the price of its higher-end Meta Quest Pro headset by some $500, bringing its cost to $999, roughly six months after it was released. Meta is also lowering the price of its Quest 2 headset from $499.99 to $429.99. The price cut for the Quest 2 will go into effect in more than a dozen countries including the United States on Sunday.

The Quest 2 headset is popular in its category but remains a niche product overall. The Quest Pro launched with a high price tag intended for enterprise customers, making it unlikely to move the needle with everyday consumers. And Meta’s flagship social VR app Horizon Worlds can feel like a ghost town . Meta lost $13.7 billion last year in its “Reality Labs” unit, which houses its VR and metaverse efforts.

It is impossible for me to be less interested in buying this. Perhaps if I was a whale or a shrew and I wasnt even aware that it existed.

Meta is a waste of time. It was supposed to be the Future. But it's basically Atari 2600 graphics.

I have rift and it was annoying forcing me to have a sse4 processor, Facebook account (with autorunning app of course) and 20 gb of unreal engine assets just to run a shop. I won't trust Facebook hardware

Read the article and price is still too high to reach the level of users meta wants. Needs to be $199-299… don’t know how they’d work that. I don’t know even know if I’d buy it for that much…

lol

'nascent technology'

'Metaverse' is a complete failure. Please stop

For what it's worth.....those things are so stupid.

No interest in strapping a light device immediately in front of my eyes. Our eyes have evolved to see things with reflected light. Not stare directly at light sources. We’re doing that enough as it is. I don’t need this on my face. That’s me.

21st century version of 3D TVs - going the same way…

Zero interest in this….

Don’t do it it is the seduction of taking you and IA whereby you will not want to live in the reality just don’t even go there same with the women’s TikTok glamour app you won’t like reality

Mark Zuckerberg needs to be in JAIL but of course the corrupt US Government wouldnt put a billionaire in jail..

Kinda like when you guys cut CNN+ when you realized no one wanted your garbage

Sorry, I like reality. Lol

Fantastic now it’s cheaper to throw your money in the trash

No pun intended

Does anyone actually want this?

Over my dead body

the subject now is artificial intelligence

So i can be poor in a fake life as well?

Noooooopeee…

I'll never know, I still don't even own a cell phone.
