Meta Connect 2024 is approaching – it kicks off on September 25 – and it looks all but certain that it’ll be the launch event for the new Meta Quest 3S. We knew almost everything about the headset already, and now a leaked ad might have confirmed the final detail: how much it’ll cost.

Meta Connect will air Sept. 25 and 26 from the stage at the company’s headquarters in Menlo Park, California. Meta will (hopefully) reveal exact timing for the event by next week. You can watch it via Facebook or, if you’re all-in on Meta’s vision, through the Horizon Worlds app on a Meta Quest headset.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg will take the stage on September 25 to deliver a keynote address about all things AR and VR, chatbots, headsets, smart glasses, and generative AI. Here’s a preview.

A new, cheaper, and possibly controller-less virtual reality headset from Meta is on the way, with an image of the device being discovered.

Meta appears to have leaked the Meta Quest 3S, its rumored budget follow-up to last year’s Quest 3 headset, in its own Windows Meta Quest Link PC software. Spotted by UploadVR, the images posted on Reddit show a VR headset that’s visually a bit of a cross between the Quest 2 and Quest 3.

Meta’s clearly tired of the Quest 2 being its budget-tier headset, and the tech needs to fall more in line with the 3 for a consistent experience across the board. And in that vein, the Meta Quest 3S (with a $300 to $400 price range) has been pretty heavily leaked ahead of a Connect announcement.

Meta Connect 2024 conference begins on September 25, and we're expecting a lot of new announcements from Meta including the Quest 3s, AR glasses, and more.
