The latest Meta Quest Pro VR headset would hardly impress and the Quest 2 is going out of sale after 3 years on the market. Mark Zuckerberg therefore intends to revive interest in his VR range by officially lowering prices, including on our territory.
The Quest Pro is $999 and the Quest 2 256GB is $429
Meta issues an official press release Announcing significant price drops for the Quest Pro, going from $1,499.99 to $999.99, and the Quest 2 Pro in 256GB, going from $499.99 to $429.99.

We can therefore hope that the price of the Quest Pro will increase from 1799.99 euros to 1299.99 euros and the Quest 2 256 GB from 549 to 479 euross (except black magic around the exchange rate).
A price drop to sell stocks ahead of the new generations
The positioning of the Quest Pro seems quite complicated and sales would be difficult to get off the ground. The lower price could therefore stimulate the commercial career of this high-end model, as well as public interest in the Quest 2, which Meta says is going out of sale. This will also allow the company to sell stock ahead of the arrival of new generations, including the announced Quest 3, which is twice as thin and powerful. with marketing planned for this year. If you’re planning on treating yourself to a VR headset signed by Meta, it’s advisable to wait a few days before checking out.
