Meta Is Reportedly Teaming Up With LG To Launch Quest Pro VR Headset In 2025

Reports suggest that Meta Platforms Inc. META is teaming up with LG Corporation to launch an upgraded Quest Pro virtual reality headset in 2025.

According to The Verge, a Korean news publication, Maeil Business Newspaper, uncovered that the tech giants are heading towards a joint venture. The new VR device could be priced around $2,000, featuring LG displays and components from LG subsidiaries such as LG Innotek.

The Korean publication also hinted at Meta’s plan to roll out a budget-friendly Quest headset next year that might be priced under $200. However, Meta has yet to comment on the matter.

The rumored pricing of the forthcoming headsets seems to deviate from Meta’s current pricing strategy. The Quest 2 retails for $299, while the announced Quest 3 is set to be sold at $499.

The alleged high-end headset, rumored to be named the “Meta Quest 4 Pro,” would break Meta’s tradition of keeping Quest and Quest Pro product numbering separate.

Despite the hefty $2,000 price tag, the new high-end Quest is believed to compete against Apple Inc.’s AAPL $3,499 Vision Pro headset.

The Mark Zuckerberg-led company has previously ventured into co-branded products before. The Oculus Rift S featured Lenovo branding, the production of Oculus Go was handled by Xiaomi, and Samsung produced the mobile Gear VR.

However, the supposed LG partnership would hold a unique position if it differentiates from these past alliances.
