Meta’s next generation of VR glasses has surfaced 🎉, showing a compact strap-free design with a 5K micro-OLED display, full-color passthrough, and a form factor much closer to sunglasses than a traditional headset.
What’s inside
- 5K micro-OLED display with 37 pixels per degree
- Custom pancake lenses and a strap-free design at around 100 grams
- Snapdragon Reality Elite chip
- Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos
- Up to 3 hours of continuous playback with 45W fast charging
- Full-color passthrough, eye tracking, and hand gestures instead of controllers
- $1,299, launching Spring 2027
Micro-OLED is especially exciting for immersive video, with deep blacks, strong contrast, and high pixel density. For a quick taste of what displays like this are built for, queue up Shark Diving in Jupiter Florida, HDR Remastered: an HDR-graded dive with Goliath groupers and sharks, full of shadow detail and underwater contrast.
We're following the launch closely and plan to support Meta's new glasses from day one. More details as Spring 2027 gets closer.
