Leaked Visuals Show Meta's Slim Phoenix VR Headset with Prescription Lens Inserts
Leaked visuals from Meta's Horizon OS firmware reveal the upcoming Phoenix VR headset, featuring a slim, glasses-like design with removable prescription lens inserts and separate nose pads. The headset, reportedly codenamed Stanley and Loma during development, aims to offer a premium, lightweight mixed-reality experience similar to the Quest Pro but with a thinner frame. It is expected to connect to an external computing puck via a cable, with sensors positioned around the arms. A QR-code setup process is also suggested by the leak.
