Spring 2027 Launch Set for the $1,300 Meta VR Glasses
- Meta unveiled new VR glasses featuring a magnesium alloy frame and pocket-bound compute puck at its Connect event on September 23, priced at $1,299 for a "Spring 2027" launch.

- Expanding its wearable ecosystem, Meta also announced the third-generation Ray-Ban Meta Gen 3 and the Muse Charm keychain, enabling AI interaction without requiring a phone.
