Meta Quest Pro

The Quest Pro closer resembles AR headsets such as Microsoft's HoloLens rather than other VR headsets, with a thinner lens enclosure, and a more visor-like form factor that does not obscure the entirety of the user's peripheral vision; "peripheral blinders" are included as an accessory, with a "full light blocker" attachment sold separately.[10][11] The lenses can be adjusted for interpupillary distance, and moved forwards and backwards.[8] It uses quantum dot displays with a per-eye resolution of 1800×1920, viewed through "pancake lenses" that allow for its enclosure to be 40% thinner in comparison to the Quest 2. Meta stated that the displays supported a wider color gamut than the Quest 2, and had improved contrast via "local dimming".[10][11] The Quest Pro's battery is built into the back of its head strap for better weight distribution; Meta rated it as lasting 1 to 2 hours on a single charge.[10][8]

For its mixed reality functions, the Quest Pro uses high-resolution color cameras (as opposed to the lower-resolution, grayscale cameras on the Quest) and infrared depth sensors; Meta stated that these sensors had a tracking range of 5 m (16 ft).[10] The headset also contains internal sensors that are used for eye and face tracking, primarily for use with avatars.[10][8] The Quest Pro uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2+ system-on-chip with 12 GB of RAM, which Meta stated had "50% more power" than the Quest 2's Snapdragon XR.[10][8]

The Quest Pro uses Touch Pro controllers, an update to the Oculus Touch controllers used by the Quest. They have a more compact design with upgraded haptics, and on-board motion tracking using embedded cameras—thus they no longer have the infrared sensor rings present on previous models (which were tracked by the headset's cameras), and are powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processors. The controllers are also rechargeable via the headset's charging dock, have a new pressure sensor for pinch gestures, and have pressure-sensitive stylus tip accessories that can be attached to the bottoms of their handles for drawing and writing. The Quest Pro controllers will be sold as an add-on accessory for existing Quest 2 headsets as well.[8][10]

The Quest Pro was demonstrated to the press with mixed reality versions of software such as Horizon Workrooms, the DJ software Tribe XR, and Painting VR.[10][8]

Meta announced a partnership with Microsoft to integrate productivity services such as Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, and Windows 365 with Meta Quest 2 and Pro, including allowing users to join Teams meetings via Horizon Workrooms, use Microsoft Office applications, as well as support for management of Quest devices via Intune.[12]
