Meta Quest Gaming Showcase - April 20th

[dburne]

Coming up tomorrow (April 20th) at 10:00 AM PDT.

I am sure this might be exciting for some of you new "Meta" fans.

I would anticipate some news on Project Cambria maybe with pricing and ship dates, Quest I expect will be more about experiences (software) along with building the Meta Verse, rather than hardware.

There was a time I would get really excited about upcoming "Oculus" events, but like the name is going away so am I. I have no interest in Meta, other than the curiosity factor of what they might be doing.

No matter what it they announce, its probably good for the VR industry.  I'm actually quite impressed with the Quest2 as a living room headset.

Yeah no doubt Meta's VR efforts are certainly helping the VR industry overall. I see a lot of Quest 2 user's across the various forums.

Hand Tracking 2.0 starting to roll out today for Quest 2 users. No support for original Quest.

I use Quest 2.  I have no real complaints.

Everything I have heard and read says Meta is designing their new products without gaming in mind, more the social aspect of vr. I really like my quest 2, but I won't be replacing it with anything made by meta.

Did I miss something or was nothing said about new headsets?

I think it was all about being a gaming showcase.

I think Connect is next month where they probably will talk about hardware some.

I think I was confusing the two in my OP.
