Meta ha presentado las nuevas Meta VR Glasses en su conferencia anual, un visor de realidad mixta ultraligero de 100 gramos que prescinde de correas y traslada su procesador a una petaca externa. Con un precio de 1.299,99 dólares, el dispositivo saldrá a la venta en la primavera de 2027 para competir directamente con las Apple Vision Pro.
Diseño de 100 gramos y arquitectura de petaca externa
At its annual Meta Connect conference, Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg unveiled the Meta VR Glasses — a $1,299 (approximately Rs 1.24 lakh) device designed to bring personal entertainment, desktop computing, and gaming into a glass-like frame weighing roughly 100 grams. Las nuevas gafas pesan aproximadamente 100 gramos, lo que las sitúa cerca de cinco veces más ligeras que el modelo Quest 3 y soluciona el problema del volumen y la fatiga facial que lastra a competidores directos como el visor de Apple. Scheduled for a release in Spring 2027, the headset does away with the heavy, ski-goggle design we have seen on Apple’s Vision Pro and instead chooses to settle for an ultra-light spectacle design. Meta adopts this design by offloading its processor, battery, and storage to an external, pocketable tethered “puck” (approximately 300 grams).
El dispositivo de Meta aparentan ser unas gafas con un diseño moderno, no precisan de correas y la parte de hardware para computación y la batería están en una petaca conectada por cable que permite llevarla en un bolsillo. La batería externa pesa aproximadamente 300 gramos. Según la compañía, los laterales abiertos y su cámara de visión periférica permiten al usuario estar al tanto de lo que ocurre a su alrededor:
La compañía señaló que puedes ponerte las Meta VR Glasses para ver cómodamente una película completa o trabajar en una pantalla portátil y privada durante un vuelo largo, sin perder la percepción del mundo que te rodea.
The upcoming glasses are said to be five times lighter than the Meta Quest 3 (100g, or 3.5oz) by moving the computing power, battery, and 128GB of expandable storage to an external puck. That should make them far more comfortable for the full three hours of claimed battery life for video playback. The CPU-and-battery approach rules out using a third-party battery pack, but 45W fast charging over USB-C will help you get back to your virtual environment.
Pantallas 5K, Dolby Atmos y la certificación IMAX Enhanced
The eyepieces are higher-resolution than some thanks to a 5K micro-OLED Infinity Display
(2.5K per eye). The 70-degree field of view is relatively narrow, but a passthrough camera and open sides make sure you’re aware of the physical realm. Meta even touts its glasses as the first IMAX Enhanced certified VR device, letting you watch movies from Disney+ in their intended aspect ratio.
