Meta Quest 2 is a virtual reality headset - our most advanced all-in-one VR system yet. From multiplayer games to unique social experiences to joining up with friends at a live show or instructor-led workout, Meta Quest 2 provides new opportunities to meet and connect with others in VR.

The new headset features a 40% slimmer visor and a new Snapdragon chipset to power its virtual reality and mixed reality experiences. While Meta plans to keep the Quest 2 around for a while, it's clear that the Quest 3 is undoubtedly the flagship of its lineup. Read on for everything we know so far about Meta Quest 3.

The Meta Quest 2 is self-contained, so once it's connected to Wi-Fi, it doesn't need to be connected to a phone or PC. It comes with a built-in software store, hand-tracking controllers, and passthrough cameras so you can see the room around you while you're wearing the headset.

The Meta Quest 2 is also wireless, unlike other VR headsets, which makes moving around freely possible. Speaking of moving freely, I was impressed by the play area you create via a built-in camera and controller before you're able to use the Meta Quest 2.

A family of head-mounted virtual reality systems from Meta Platforms (formerly Facebook). Meta Quest devices are stand-alone 3D goggles and controllers where people explore, socialize and play games in real or fantasy worlds (see social VR).

The performance of the newly launched next-generation Sony PSVR2 (PlayStation VR2), along with the price reduction of the Quest 2 by Meta, saved the global market from a more drastic decline. Meta was the best-selling global XR headset brand during Q1 2023 with the Quest 2 as its long-time best-performing VR headset.

Meta changed their name because they are moving away from social media as their main focus, and they want people to know what they are doing. And by renaming the Oculus Quest to the Meta Quest, they are trying to make the connection between VR's most popular headset and this company with the general public.

Like its predecessor, the Meta Quest 2 features inside-out tracking, which means it can track your movement without the need for external sensors. It's surprisingly accurate too, with even the slightest head turn registered with pinpoint accuracy.
