Meta Quest Pro

People will spend $2k on a great TV or monitor, and yet take issue with a headset that is a standalone device with crystal clear lenses, great FOV, eye tracking, face tracking, and amazing controllers costing $1500. I can see why. Consumers had the bar set too low in terms of pricing with the Quest 2. At the end of the day this IS a premium device. Working inside the quest 2 is uncomfortable and the lenses make it so that you have to move your head to look around. The lenses on the pro are so clear that you can just move your eyes. This product is a step forward, as it gives developers everything they need to work towards a next-gen experience. Local dimming, foveated rendering, and color passthrough for AR. Sure, the resolution could be higher - but reading 12 pt font is still plenty comfortable. By the way, even though it's lower than the Quest 2 in terms of total pixels, there are still more pixels per degree (the metric that actually matters). If you just want it for PCVR - it might not be worth it, but if you want to work and experiment with a device (and also want to play some games), this thing is AMAZING.

Look the Meta Quest Pro is one heck of a device. There is truly nothing like it. It's not perfect and depending on your preconceptions from how it was advertised, it will not be convincing for most. Nor should it be, this device is Meta's (Facebook's) first attempt to step into an AR territory. It's a great device but there's one problem. The software and AR app support is lacking. This is expected and is why this device costs so much - it's a DEV kit. It's really aimed at developers and VR/AR enthusiasts. For $1500, your likely the type of individual who has already been convinced that AR will be the next technological advancement regarding human technology interaction. For $1500 your more than likely the type of individual who wants to help make this happen, experience it and contribute to its growth.

This is one of the easiest and most plug-and-play VR headsets out there, including stand-alone and PCVR use. Say what you want about Meta, their Oculus software has worked well since the CV1. The streaming is amazing on Wifi 6: literally no drops, no frame drops, no detectable compression and it doesn’t put up a fight like other options. It just works. It’s not the most comfortable headset or the lightest. The battery pack weighs it down significantly and the fact it’s on the back of your head means you can’t lean back. The way that it sits on your head involves a large rubbery pad pushing against your entire forehead. It may be a source of discomfort for some, the pressure didn’t bother me much; however, the material does not breath and even light use results in significant sweating—more than any other headset I’ve ever used. If you find VR uncomfortable because it can be hot, this is absolutely not the headset for you. Controllers are quality and have the right amount of weight to them and I didn’t have issues with tracking them or my hands. Charging station is nice and can charge everything. It also comes with a single individual controller charger, but it should really come with two because they use contacts and it’s not a cable you can easily supplement like USB C. It is so nice having head tracking without base stations. Again, it just works. All that said, I feel like VR has progressed so slowly. I have an Oculus CV1 and this seriously isn’t much of an improvement for the price. The wireless streaming is great, but may have issues for some, and for long sessions you will have to be tethered to something anyway since the battery holds about 2 hours. And then you’re stuck with a battery strapped to your skull while wired to something else. The lenses don’t give the screen door effect, but the resolution doesn’t feel massively improved. Frame rate is 90 which is the bare minimum. FOVs are based on IPD so you end up with that classic VR binocular vision unless you have eyes like a deer. In summary, we’re still in early adopter territory for VR. $1000 today doesn’t get you anything much better than $1000 did 5 years ago. There has not been a truly next-gen PCVR headset made yet and this isn’t it either. I guess people use these for business or something and I truly don’t understand how or why, but apparently that’s what these are geared for. So if that’s you, this is probably the best headset on the market. For everyone else living in 2023 and not in Zuckerberg’s weird metaverse fantasies, it’s just okay and I can’t necessarily recommend it to anyone as an upgrade. Image-wise, there’s better headsets for PCVR and this isn’t a budget option, so unless you’re extremely interested in the wireless aspect or want something standalone, I’d go with something else.

I pre-ordered an Oculus Quest 2 before they launched. Used it a ton prior to the Quest Pro release. Switching to the Pro was quite the eye opener. The faster performance, the incredible lens clarity, the COMFORT, face/eye tracking - this thing is incredible. I purchased this at full price prior to the 33% price drop, and I'd do it again. Don't let the Meta haters talk you out of it. However, writing this review in May of 2023, I recommend most wait for the upcoming Quest 3. It's going to use the identical lenses to the Pro but with higher resolution displays. The dramatically increased processing and graphics power of the Quest 3 will be more future proof. Unfortunately Meta has been extremely slow to implement work features. Last time i checked, I still can't use virtual monitors with a Windows PC, only Mac. If you're buying this for work, just know that it may not speed up your workflow but actually make it worse. For traveling however I've found this to be a useful tool to have more screens while I'm mobile with just a laptop. Overall, for an enthusiast, this headset is great. For the average everyday consumer, I recommend waiting for the Quest 3.

Ótimo conforto e peso reduzido

Was using two IR lights at night to create a totally dark room for 3d movie immersion. Just tried these out and they are really really comfortable and now let the claustrophobic immersion begin. The full light blocker are sold out everywhere and backordered until Dec 15th.

Produit de qualité et fait bien ce pour quoi on l'achète. Le produit m'a bien été livrée dans les temps.

La consegna è andata bene, apparte per il fatto che ho trovato lo stesso prodotto sul sito di Meta a circa 300 euro in meno. Decido di restituirlo perché il VR non mi è piaciuto, e il venditore fa il furbo dandomi un indirizzo estero a cui rispedire (per fare pagare a me le spese di spedizione). Risolto questo, il venditore sottrae dei soldi dal rimborso perché "l'articolo non è sigillato". Quasi tutti gli articoli Amazon non sono sigillati quando vengono mandati indietro, è palesemente una scusa per tenersi dei soldi. Il mio articolo è l'ho rimandato indietro dopo qualche giorno, in condizioni perfette e impacchettato uguale a come mi è arrivato. Per un piccolo sigillo di plastica, si tengono 300-400 euro?

works great
