At its 2025 Connect event, Meta presented the Quest 4 and showed how it merges augmented and virtual reality with holographic technology. This new feature transforms how we experience immersive technologies, exciting tech fans, and demonstrates Meta’s ambition to dominate the AR/VR world.
With its new XR3 chip, the Quest 4 holographic display places 3D visuals into the surroundings around you. Thanks to this chip, AR apps operate at least 50 percent faster. Because it merges realities, Meta has set the stage for the Quest 4 to be a leading player in wearable tech.
Thanks to eye-tracking, intentional navigation using gaze becomes possible. Adding hand-tracking means that many applications no longer require specific controllers. This opens up Quest 4 to everyone, thanks to its appeal to action fans and those looking for usefulness.
Battery life lasts up to three hours, 20 percent longer than the previous version. Proper power management means you can use your AR/VR for a longer time. Engineering from Meta ensures users can use the Quest 4 for more time, whether for immersive enjoyment or work activities.
On Horizon OS 2.0, Quest 4 has an attractive user interface that can be modified with different virtual rooms. AI assistants learn your preferences and help simplify tasks such as setting up appointments or gaming. With new updates, the software Meta develops maintains Quest’s position in the fast-growing AR/VR industry.
Eye and hand data are analyzed on your device instead of being sent to the cloud. Meta’s updated privacy settings ensure that user data is protected by encryption. This devotion to privacy makes Quest 4 one of the most secure options in wearable technology.
The 120Hz OLED display offers crisp and vibrant visuals and a wider field of view than previous models. Better passthrough cameras make AR shots appear like real-life objects. Meta has designed displays that match or exceed its competitors, adding to the fun of gaming, work, and staying in touch with friends.
Seventy percent of the plastics in Quest 4 are sustainably made from recycled material. Green packaging reflects what customers want and also helps Meta by showing it leads the way in sustainable AR/VR innovation.
Horizon Worlds 2.0 now means users can work, play, and interact more in shared virtual areas. Users have the option to host AR meetings or concerts on this platform. As Meta’s apps develop, they become attractive to many and support an exciting community.
Meta and Unity have teamed up to let creators access advanced development tools for immersive apps. Using these tools for training and storytelling inspires new ideas. Because of a lively developer community, the Quest 4 constantly brings out exciting new content.
Because of Wi-Fi 7, exploring VR games in the cloud becomes possible on this device, thanks to its lower latency. 5G compatibility makes connecting easier when users aren’t home or office. With a focus on connectivity, Meta ensures the Quest 4 is an adaptable device for anyone today.
Many people on social media appreciate the Quest 4 for its lightness and easy controls. The first group using this phone points out how immersive and easy to use AR is. Because Meta focuses on users in its new system, the Quest 4 appeals to devotees of VR as well as new AR fans.
Several concerns have been raised about AR, mainly regarding the privacy of those sharing spaces. Meta provides open data policies and allows people to choose whether to join the platform. As a result, Quest 4 is regarded as an accountable leader as the AR/VR industry develops.
The Quest 4 costs less than flagship VR headsets with the same top features. Their strategy is centered on making sure many people use their products, which should boost market results. Because of its progressive technology, sales of the Quest 4 are predicted to be a major part of AR/VR purchases in 2025.
Meta’s devices should communicate fluidly one day thanks to the integration across Quest, Ray-Ban Stories, and Portal products. Thanks to this tight link, users develop greater loyalty to Samsung’s brand, which puts Apple’s Vision Pro to the test. Thanks to its design, the Quest 4 works well for everything from playing games to working from home.
