Meta Confirms Quest Pro 2 Candidate Cancelation & Ultralight Headset Plan
Meta's CTO has confirmed reports about their 2027 headset plans. Originally, Meta intended to release two headsets but decided to cancel the high-end "La Jolla" model, expected to be a Quest Pro 2, due to its costly micro-OLED displays and lukewarm reception of the original Quest Pro. Instead, they are focusing on an ultralight headset featuring a tethered compute puck, codenamed "Puffin." This new project has moved from the Pre-Discovery phase to Discovery, indicating it is under evaluation and could still be discontinued in the Prototyping or Engineering Validation Test phases.
