Show Notes
The Meta Quest Pro VR headset is here. It's lighter, and has more precise hand tracking, but a lower resolution, refresh rate, and battery life, and it's being marketed to creative professionals at a whopping $1,500. So who is this for? And will it move the needle on VR?
We discuss the fractured VR audience, and why the Pro's specs and price tag may not line up for VR's biggest evangelists. Plus, Facebook's major trust problem, and why Valve is uniquely positioned to save us all from VR ecosystem hell, especially with lessons learned from the Steam Deck's success.
