Meta Connect will air Sept. 25 and 26 from the stage at the company’s headquarters in Menlo Park, California. Meta will (hopefully) reveal exact timing for the event by next week. You can watch it via Facebook or, if you’re all-in on Meta’s vision, through the Horizon Worlds app on a Meta Quest headset.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg will take the stage on September 25 to deliver a keynote address about all things AR and VR, chatbots, headsets, smart glasses, and generative AI. Here’s a preview.

The headset boasted a sleeker, more comfortable design, as well as new AR capabilities, that made it more appealing than its predecessor. Once again, for Meta Connect 2024, the social media giant is expected to drop a new VR headset, but it's not necessarily an upgrade over the Quest 3.

One of the most vital pieces of information set to come out of Meta Connect 2024 appears to have already been revealed after an advert for the upcoming Meta Quest 3S appeared online early, revealing the price of Meta's latest mixed-reality headset.

Meta’s clearly tired of the Quest 2 being its budget-tier headset, and the tech needs to fall more in line with the 3 for a consistent experience across the board. And in that vein, the Meta Quest 3S (with a $300 to $400 price range) has been pretty heavily leaked ahead of a Connect announcement.

The Meta Quest 3 is the company's current VR headset, and while certainly not as expensive as Apple's Vision Pro, it still costs $499 minimum. According to the rumor mill, Meta is working on a less expensive version of the Quest 3,

I have lusted over the Meta Quest 3 since it was announced in June 2023. I haven't bought it, though, because I can't figure out if it will be useful enough to justify the $500+ p

We don't expect an official Meta Quest 3s announcement until next week at Meta Connect, but the company is already advertising for it on Peacock.
