During the annual Connect conference, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled the Meta VR Glasses, a new virtual reality device that is slimmer and lighter than previous models, set to retail for $1,299 in spring 2027.
Alongside this, he introduced the Muse Charm, a handheld device designed to interact with Meta's Muse AI personal agent, allowing users to communicate without needing to unlock their phones. While specific functionalities of the Muse Charm were not detailed, Zuckerberg emphasized its convenience and integration with AI.
The VR Glasses feature improved visuals and advanced sensors for eye and hand tracking, reducing reliance on controllers. This launch marks Meta's latest effort to innovate in the VR space since the release of the Quest 3S in 2024, indicating a strategic focus on enhancing user experience and expanding its product ecosystem in the competitive tech landscape
