Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, who has a history of getting his predictions right, caused a stir last week with a report claiming to reveal Meta’s smartglasses and AR roadmap through 2027. He did not say anything about VR products.

In his latest Power On newsletter on Sunday, he mentions them in passing, writing

“Meta is working on Quest 4 VR goggles, as well as a new high-end model that could eventually become a successor to the Quest Pro mixed-reality headset, I’m told.”

It is clear that Samsung and Google will put pressure on Meta this year with the premium headset Project Moohan and Meta could consider a response. Meta is working with ASUS on a headset that reportedly offers eye and face tracking. Gurman’s source may have been referring to this product, the release year of which is not yet known.

We will have to wait and see what direction Meta’s plans take. As always, keep in mind that Meta has multiple hardware prototypes in development at any given time, and only a few of these will actually become products. A lot can happen between now and 2027 and beyond.
