The New Quest 2 Headset Highlights the Facebook Connect AR/VR Conference

The social network will debut Ray-Ban-branded smart glasses in 2021

Facebook held its Facebook Connect (formerly Oculus Connect) annual augmented reality and virtual reality conference this week—virtually, of course—and it was highlighted by the debut of the Quest 2 headset.

The social network said the Quest 2 was redesigned to be smaller and over 10% lighter than the original Oculus Quest, and its suggested retail price starts at $299, $100 below the original Quest.

Pre-orders are open here, and the Quest 2 is slated to ship Oct.
